BAND FEST!!

So every year our band goes to festival to be judged on the pieces we've worked on as well as sight reading. Last year it was fun, we (perucussionists) got our own bus that was full of our instruments and everyone else's too, and we got straight 1's!! so I was excited to go again this year. So we get there and we go to the "scene shop" to get the instruments we need and set up the stage. We discover that we didn't have a xylophone! Luckily they had one on stage so we were good. Everything goes well and we get through our first piece, we called it "March" (as in walking, not the month) with few problems. Then the next one, "Irish", and then "Dorian" is next and my friend looks at me and says we didn't get the woodblock! After a 3-5 minute wait he's back on, we start the piece and we exit the stage. Thankfully we get an overall 1 from the judges and were the only 8th grade band to get a 1 in sightreading! Thanks Mrs. McInchak!!
