We lost the game, but the consensus among people who know these things was that we did better than expected. Can't wait for the next game!

A marching bari sax is indeed a sight to behold! Congrats, because I could definitely hear them in the “Star Spangled Banner.” Keep up the good work!

Wow! that brings back pleasant memories. I played trombone in Battle Creek, MI band '44 - '46 and North High, Columbus, OH
The BC band was good enough to play for the opening game at Michigan State (before they were in the Big Ten.)
Annabelle, you can't emagine how proud you made your great-grandmother, Grace feel.
Go Girl Go!

Great show, Annabelle! All the hard work and sweat has paid off. I enjoyed the show!
They look good! That bari sax is amazing (really the girl carrying it!) Elliott is loving band too. They placed 2 out of 26 in their first cometition this past weekend. They are playing at the Wofford-Appalachian State college game half time this weekend.
Thank you, everybody, for the nice comments! New Year's resolution: be better about answering comments. :-)
