Drum Major Auditions...

Not only are dega darlin auditions next week, but also drum major auditions. If you stay after school this week I will work with you on conducting and leadership basics, and next week we will have an instructor; therefore, it doesn't matter if you don't know anything about conducting because you will learn everything you need to know before auditions. If you are interested in becoming the drum major then talk to me and I will teach you some things and have you ready for when the instructor comes next week. Thanks... :) The position of drum major is much more than conducting. The responibilities also include strong character, leadership and being a good role model and friend to all band kids not only during marching season but year round. I encourage anyone with true passion for music and the desire to lead to participate with the drum major auditons. And Remember, Anyone can lead, but those who don't have made the descion to follow...- Blake...

Practice!

I encourage everyone to practice for the competion on Wednesday. We are playing very well but there are a few individual problems that we need to address at home; all it would take would be a little bit of homework.

Mardi Gras Parade...

I hope that everyone comes out to support the THS Jazz Band tomorrow in the Mardi Gras Parade. Jazz band members remember that we are meeting at Zora Ellis tomorrow at 10:00 a.m.. Those who need their instruments can meet Mr. McDaniel in the bandroom at 9:30 tomorrow. If you forgot your instrument that will be the ONLY chance to get it. Either Mr. McDaniel or I will notify you if the parade gets canceled due to iced roads... The parade begins at 11:00 for anyone who wants to attend.
