Well it is our first home football game and the first game I will be attending. They will be playing two of the three tunes for the show tonight with some marching on the field and playing some stand tunes. These are the nights that are most stressful. It is for our fans and the town. Right now I am in the office listening to them practice some tunes. I shouldn't have come up here with a headache. I guess I forgot how loud they can be in this small of a space. Oh well you live and you learn. I swear I always forget how difficult some of these tunes were to play. Well I guess when you play nothing but the melody it is hard to remember that. Playing the flute was at times cake walk. Well the music was easy at times, but being musician most music came easy to me. As I sit here and watch my husband play the trumpet to help keep tempo I forget how sexy he is playing it. Hey he is my husband and I can say that. This is confessions so that is a confession to me. Most confessions I will keep to myself. I will probably post more as the game goes on. I will probably also leave early because I am dog sitting my brothers dog Maxi this weekend and I am afraid my dog will hurt himself trying to get out of his crate and to her.
This picture has absolutely nothing to do with band, just wanted to show the alumni and former directors the new score board donated by sports boosters. It is tall wish they would have had it that tall when we were in school.
Pregame
The game is over so now I am home relaxing next to my husband and thinking on the night and know there were wonderful memories made. From the drummer with the bunny costume on the opposing teams band to one of our kids tripping to my friend and fellow director telling her drummer "Don't forget to grab your bunny costume" Definitely something I never thought I would hear a band director say. So that is why I made the title what I did.
