Hey guys, updates..

Our trio got the highest gold award handed out, we got a standing ovation.
Nailed every song, we should have recordings soon.
Really really really really stoked.

Our full jazz band is on tommorow.. we'll see what happens

[_Wrathchild_]

Sweet, congrats! What songs did you play?


Our school bands suck so we don't get to go to cool stuff like that.
We did just get back from a festival in Moosejaw though (any band can go to that one), and our band did do better than normal, but still sucked, but I got offered a scholarship to go to this jazz camp on Vancouver Island so that was pretty cool I guess.
It was a pretty effed up band trip though. Some stuff went down that involved drugs and students getting sent home and possibly expelled, and creepy guys hanging out by the hotel and cops coming in the middle of the night. It was...interesting.


And is berk there yet

Steves is lame. People there are lame. But seriously though, if you get some free time, GO TO DAVES!, it rules.
