If you didn't already know, I'm going to the FSU Chamber Winds camp for two weeks starting tomorrow. I'll be back probably later in the afternoon on the 1st of July. I definitely need to catch up with a lot of people when I get back, I know I'll regret it if I don't when I get to college. Also, me and Tony Adams are planning on seeing Reel Big Fish ( Read more... )

Bah I haven't updated in a while partly because there has been nothing to update about. I need to get out of the house before I lose my mind. Luckily, FSU Chamber Winds camp is coming up this weekend for two weeks so I'll be doing something productive soon. Tomorrow I go to Stetson to meet the trumpet professor and have a semi-lesson with him, and ( Read more... )

Well, I got back this morning after a 16 hour drive home in one piece. Road trip 06 = Amazing.
Really, I had the time of my life. If I tried to explain all my experiences, I'd be up all night. When I finally get the 500+ pictures organized you can see how awesome it was. I just gotta say, New York is the most badass place on the planet.

The time has finally come for me to get a taste of the real world. I probably won't like it, but I at least need taste. It's probably not the smartest idea to go jumping in head first like this, but I'm willing to take that risk. Tomorrow I leave for Pennsylvania with Thommy Laverack, Chris Hudon, and Tony Adams. We're going to stay at a place with ( Read more... )

Well, I've had a great time in the past couple of days. The jazz concert is finally over, which was the last band concert of the year. It went well, even though most of the brass players were extremely tired from the ridiculous 7 hour rehersal the day before. The next day was the last day for seniors. Everyone was crazy. We made a huge pyramid in ( Read more... )

HOT DAMN! WHOOOOO! Alright, so I'm pretty excited about this being the last week of school. Helps me cope with jazz band. I do have to say I'm excited about the guest artist, as I hear he is "da bomb". I hope he doesn't play the solo on My Funny Valentine though. I like that one. That offer to go see "United 93" is still on the table from a couple ( Read more... )

Funny how things can change so fast. First off, let me explain how this all started. As you may know, the Wind Symphony performed at an invitational at Stetson University last month. One piece featured Mike Rice and I as soloists. Now apparently at Stetson they are in need of trumpet players, and I happened to catch the eye of the music director, ( Read more... )

Anyone wanna go see United 93 sometime this weekend?

Thank freakin' God state is over. Now all that's left is the spring concert, da jazz band concert, spanish, english research paper, and then graduation. Summer should be relaxing though. Prom was great Saturday. I had a lot of fun while getting my freak on for the first time in a while. The top hat and cane I ordered worked out great, although I ( Read more... )
