Attention


Band practice. The Wildcat Band's first game to march at is in two weeks and most of these kids have never marched before. The band director acts just like Mr. Wilson (Midland High's Band director). He yells and gets on to them for moving during attention, looking around or not being loud enough during the attention yell. He also makes the entire band drop and do push ups when someone does something wrong. That may come from his military background (Mr. Wilson never made us do that). Boy does it bring back a lot of memories though. Brad looked great out on the practice field. They are supposed to keep their elbows up the entire time they're out there and that's hard to do. As I was watching, Brad was the only one with his elbows up. He did a great job and looked like a pro. There's only about 50 kids in Marching band and Brad is one of the youngest.

Yes, I got hit with two spams today. I've deleted them because it really annoys me! So, now when you comment, you'll have to type in the word below to get it posted. Do these people really think they'll get business by lieing to get someone to look at their web site. I hate, hate, hate it.

That's really cool that brad getting to do this over there. He does look pretty young compared to those around him.

Looking, good, Brad! Takes us back to our days of chapperoning on band trips, selling band chili, etc. Wish we could come see you perform.
