Pep Band Blues

I got to play with the high school pep band yesterday. It was a blast! However, we were pretty pitiful, because half the band were teachers and most of the students didn't even show up. :( But on the bright side, I got to play my groovy "new" saxaphone that my papa bought for my birthday. I had a lot of solos due to the lack of instrumentation, and I had only two days of practice. It was definitely interesting. And my E flat was a little out of tune. Enough so that the band instructor pointed it out. (I'm getting to the bright side.) I felt like I was back in high school again. I didn't realize how much I missed being a band nerd.

That actually sounds fun, I wonder if I would dare do that, I would be afraid of making too many mistakes at a high school level.
