Band Concert

Okay so yesterday we had this band/orchestra concert yesterday and today. I know strange. I messed up in every song yesterday and today except Ode Joy and Danny Boy, witch are the hardest (ode joy) and easiest songs (Danny boy).Today,Candy Man was off the charts I mean it was awesome. Concert Band was swaying side to side, to the beat, witch made me laugh and mess up , on my solo. Oooops. The same with the tamborine in Chunnuka Forever. There were these guys in the back of there section who stood up and did this little dance when I had another one of my solos. I know there were about 3 people who had solos and I was one of them the only one who had 2. The other two soloists are in Concert Band. Ya...
Today was the day we had to preform in front of the entire concert. Thats when everyone was swaying and doing there little dance and making me look like a fool on the camera. Oh yeah there was a camera in the upper stage so that we could watch ourselves on the camera on Tuesday. Why Tuesday and not Monday, because Varsity Band has a field trip were going to South Saint Anthony Park, Adams Immersion school and Sheldon Elementary. We're playing Eine Kleine Nacht Musik, yep that's how its spelled. Ode JOy, Go the Distance (Hercules), The Candy Man (Willy Wonka), Danny Boy, Chanukah Forever, and Christmas Fantasy, based on Jingle Bells. In that exact same order to. I'm a little excited and a bit nervous but not as much as today when people in the audience did have the choice of booing you off the stage and unlike Crossroads you actually had to get off. There was only 2 kids who were I thought it was pretty funny.
The concert had some pretty cool songs if you go on you tube and try and see them if you don't know what they are I bet there on there. Watermelon Man (GO Mason, and Aly!!), Three English Carolers, Christmas Pops meloday, Merry Christmas, Magic of Mozart, White Christmas, and Go tell it on the mountain. I know its quite a few Christmas songs but the Concert Band played it better then the actual version, I swear it (I swear I didn't swear).
It was pretty awesome thanks for writing/responding.
