I come to Iowa City to play a salsa gig with Brent Sandy and you don't show? I am terribly hurt.

Billy,
She was probably in the practice room getting her chops together for the Jazz Reperotry Ensemble chair that she auditioned into....

"Half Ton O Horns" burned it down da' house last night, dude! Mercy

Pat,

Two answers....

1) I am offended! :>)) To answer your question....just the two of us.... joined by two other "non-mutants" sized horn boys.

2) Lara DID play well enough to land a chair! Lara....Great work! Keep that momentum going forward!

Woah, how come nobody told me about this salsa gig? Huh? I didn't know about it until I logged into TH just now! lol.

I just went and found out that I got into JRE...and I'm psyched! I can't wait...it's going to be so much fun. I gotta get practicing! lol. I seriously didn't think I played well enough to get into anything. Wow. Just...wow.

Actually, last night I was being a slacker and taking a (well deserved) break from school work and watched "Dawn of the Dead" and "28 Days Later" with a bunch of friends. Though, I'm not feeling very well because my allergies have returned with a vengence. I slept in pretty late this morning.

I also got into a church group as an alto, and for Christmas I'll play trumpet with them. I made a choir here too, which really makes me happy because I've really missed choir these last few years.

I can't wait for the rest of the semester! I mean, this is awesome! I'm still an open major, but, I keep leaning to something in the music department.

A very happy, though allergy ridden, girl,
Lara

Holy Cow!, Silverstar, with that kind of schedule you will have to be sure to eat right to keep your energy up. I recommend dark chocolate covered fruit creams, like from See's Candy or somewhere like that, taken every half hour or so. jbqd

Congrats!

With your busy schedule you probably won't be able to come hear us sing when we come to IA next either

But maybe we'll run into you

jbqd; You call that good eating!!???

Yikes as far as blood sugar swings go, but yummy as far as taste goes

Hmmm from the title of this thread, I was waiting for the message to be "I was waiting in bed for you all night!" JK! Just kidding!

Congrats Lara on getting in that, and good luck with your busy schedule!

Actually, when I first read the title an image of a girl in a pink wig running around shoving Mentos in Diet Pepsi bottles came to mind.
:-)

Congratulations! What pieces will be in the Rep?

Congrats on making whatever it was that you made lara...I'm not all that educated on big trumpet performances or anything so I wouldn't know too much. Good job anyways.
