It really frustrated me that the directors didn't give me adequate time to learn the opener drill that I missed on Monday: I wouldn't have been able to learn that drill that quickly if I weren't jet lagged. I essentially had to ask my band mates where my set was and try to get somewhere near there.
We did a run of the first two parts of the show. I had a mind blank a few times where I couldn't remember the music. With my exhaustion, a tough set where I have to move a big distance backwards, and repetitive music, I struggled to make a set. I felt as if I were a first year band member again.
Overall, the work ethic of this band impresses me: everyone for the most part doesn't relax until told to, everyone mainly pays attention and doesn't talk. We're learning drill at a decent pace.
