One holiday concert down (LCCB), one to go (FCB). Stage rehearsal for FCB on Friday (good thing, too, as DC was not at rehearsal last night!). It will be better performed than the LCCB concert, but may not be up to the FCB's usual standards. Especially as I heard some chatter afterward that the first trumpet player has somehow gotten himself scheduled for a gig every night this week. And he's known this for a while, but did he bother to tell anyone? or have someone else(s) in the section work on those parts? or even decline one of those other gigs (he's not getting paid for most of them)? what do you think?
The LCCB is a good community band. They're not Very Good, and certainly not Outstanding or Superior, but better than many I've heard. The flutes are sharp, the 'bones tend to blatt when they get loud, the percussion is suspect, etc. But it's fun, and it's different music than the FCB.
Still waiting to hear back from EU about requests for her Xmas box. Will be making the stuff to send to Mum tomorrow, and get that out on Thursday
The black cat is glaring at the outside. It's snowing just a bit (there's a solid cover on the deck, but it's not deep enough to cover the grass yet), and he's not a big fan of falling snow. I wouldn't mind so much, except that he glares at me too, because it's obviously my fault that it's snowing.
