Something really cool!

Here I am watching the Oscars and they have this montage of all of the "best pictures" from 1928 - present.  The cool thing was the music they used............music from "Dragon Heart" (Brigade's 2006 show was the music from Dragon Heart!).  I just thought that was really cool hearing that awesome music again and I wondered how many Brigade people out there heard it as well?!

We had a great couple of days this weekend with the percussion section.  At our next camp in March - the plan is to be able to perform the intro and first movement together.  This is outstanding because it will only be MARCH!!  It's going to be a good season, let me tell you!  The street beat is almost "street ready" and the front ensemble is playing an original composition Patrick wrote just for us.  We are all really excited and we almost wish it was June already!

Don't forget that this week we have the Junior Lighthouse Brigade recruitment night (Thursday, February 28th @ Mitchell Middle School - 7:00pm) and two rehearsals this weekend - Junior Brigade (Saturday, March 1st @ Mitchell Middle School - 9-5) and Lighthouse Brigade - horn line and color guard - Saturday, March 1st (9-5) and Sunday, March 2nd (1-6) @ Gifford Elementary School.  See you there!!

Today's marching member "shout-out" goes out to: Nolan (alto saxophone).
