A Long and Tedious, Yet Useful Rehearsal

Yesterday, we had marching band rehearsal. It was for two and a half hours, and that can get really long and tedious.

We were rehearsing the middle section and the end. I’m glad we did what we did. They changed the end part of the ballad (the middle section) and I was confused. Apparently, my drill sheet was right. They must of changes it and then changed it back.

I’m excited. I still can’t play and march, because I need to focus all of my concentration into the marching aspect of marching band. Toward the end of the ballad, we have this move where we move forward twelve as a block. I decided I was going to try to play, and I did. I still can’t play all the time, because I either don’t know where we are, or I need to focus on the marching. The marching part of marching band is not my strength; my strength is the actual music.

On Thursday, we're working the end of the ballad. I'm glad, because I'm a little fuzzy in that area.

I’m definitely looking forward to the rest of the season.
