jennlk: (Chelsea Band Hat)
[personal profile] jennlk
I am now done being a band mom. DB's last performance was today, and he (currently) has no intentions of playing in college. It was also probably the last Chelsea Memorial Day parade I will go to, as I suspect I'll be joining the adhoc community band at the Franklin Cemetary in the future.

The band was much more together than it was last year, which is good. It helps that the drum major at the upper winds end of the band is competent. She did have a problem in the second piece, but that was because they weren't following, not because she couldn't lead.

The weather was good -- not too hot, not too cold, not too sunny, not raining -- can't really ask for more. The speaker was decent, and there was an incidental flyover -- a single bomber on its way to a proper flyover emerged from the clouds just as the band was finishing.
