haha well i guess ill see you there tomorrow! i'm one of the stage managers so if you see a redhead with glasses, give me a shout out!

[Mellophone77]

Lol, all right. I'll try but I tend to get shy and chicken out or my voice will be too quiet. Like I was sitting a couple of rows behind some txbands staff at BOA Arlington last year (09) and didn't say anything even though I wanted to xD The challenges of being quiet and shy =P

[whitewing09]

West Highlands Sojourn - Robert Sheldon

 

 

Definitely played that my freshman year =) Oh how the time flies...

[Mellophone77]

Lol, then I suppose the rythm "1 - li 2 la li" from the third movement makes you shutter like it makes me? =P I guess I'm lucky I only had to play it 18 bars in a row compared to a few other instruments xD Still a fun piece though.

[eNVy]

haha mello i guess i didnt see you today hahaha. you might have seen me running around crazily, though....

[Mellophone77]

I didn't see any stage managers with red hair and glasses... Maybe I was a bit focused on the moment or something Were you there at 8 this morning? I'm guessing you were but that was around the time my group had our concert.

[eNVy]

yeah i was there but i had rehearsal from 8-10....which i didnt know i had yesterday X)

[Mellophone77]

Ah, well that explains why I didn't see you xD And that must have been your group practicing while we were waiting to be moved into the sight reading room. Are any of the pieces you're playing from Fantasia? Because one sounded like it

[eNVy]

yes. we are playing the sorcerer's apprentice which is the mickey scene with the magic hat and brooms. it's really fun but A LOT of notes hahaha
