Brandon's Middle School Band




Last Wednesday, Brandon had his first big middle school band concert. I say big because even though he actually was in middle scool last year, the band program at his new school far exceeds the old one. We do appreciate what he did learn last year, but this is SO much better!! Anyhow, they had several of the elementary schools join for a 6th grade band performance and then Brandon walked in with his 7th grade band. They sounded great!!
His performance was recorded by his brother --in true Trevor form. The ony reason he recorded it was because I had the bigger videocamera which is still on VHS tapes. If you tend to get dizzy - just listen, dont watch. Then the 8th graders played and then the High school played. Brandon's group got to play the fight song with them like they did at the football game. Brandon was so excited and it was great to have the older kids there to get them excited for marching band!!

(You will want to go down and pause my music at the end of my blog so you can hear the band - if you are brave enough to listen!!)
