back from all-northwest
Feb. 17th, 2007 08:14 pmI have returned!
Okay, returned pretty sick, but hey: you gain some, you lose some. If in "lose some" you mean, "nearly passed out on the first day, very nearly lost voice on second and third days." And "didn't get to see the Air Force Band and the Boston Brass because people wanted to get back to the 'Burg for Tolo." And "six hours on a bus" and "five hours on a bus."
Make that school bus -- we didn't get a charter bus.
But it was very fun, and we played well -- well enough to make my BD cry, but in a good way, not a bad way -- and I got to test-play flutes and oh my god, alto flute and bass flute holy mother of god I want them now.
Coherence tomorrow, when I am hopefully not so sick.
