As Mr Yea didnt have the conductor score, so we never play Blue Ridge. But that desnt mean you guys dont practice for today you know. Must practice and practice!!! Within six months if can play the song nice and perfect, maybe you guys can play a harder song. Dont wanna play harder song then might as well u dont join Band in the first place la.

So we went on. Mr Yea ask Band Major Melodi to bring out the scores and then he choose what song to sight read. And he choose Whole World and Tomato song. The Whole world is okay... not bad la. But I think tomato is a horrible song, maybe my taste not good. Like funeral song like that. We groaned when Mr Yea mention "Millenium Song" This Kees Vlak composer like a boring person. I dont know his other songs, maybe got happy happy one.

Aiyah i wanna play Bue Ridge la.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TRACY KOH.

Poor Mr yea having sore throat.
No wonder he insisted on 2 hours of band only.
hope he get well soon.
Had sectionals instead, practice Blue Ridge those with the scores.
Its abit easy , can manage if the sec ones this year comes, since got one and a half year to practice. Looks like many people like the song huh.

Welcome , new sec two girl. Hope you will join band, enjoy Band as much as us. Wonder what instrument u like. :) Hope you will do well in the trumpet section.

About the CCA thing.. Got about 80 people interested. Heh wonder where will we get the chairs and more instruments, but thats not a prob. The performance was kinda... cold. But i thought we tried our best and played well. :) YAY

Those dont have BRS recording , ask frm your seniors and friends. Not online? Email them. Go listen that song until u get phobia of it.

Gogogo band.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY CLARE YONG.


- HAY

Band practice yesterday. which was like only a few minutes away. Practiced shake,rattle and roll. mr yea implemented many moves. Now the clarinetists have to dance~ yey yey yey!~

Not many ppl attended band today. well, what can we do since its just after camp.anyway, we have to practice hard for the CCA rehearsal. its a must. remember to memorise your score too....... AND last but not least, there's band on Monday. the CCA Fair rehearsal starts at 2.15pm, so have a heavy recess and report early. after the rehearsal, we will all be given time for lunch. so, see you.

BRICK. -the stupid pig with the stupid brick.

YOYO! THERES A NEW BAND FORUM (:
I think im gonan be spending more time there than here xD
BUT please come here and tag too. and check for updates, we do update here.

MaterialSupplier is the main person incharge of the new band forum. Guess who she is? haha, don't.

http://z15.invisionfree.com/SJC_Concert_Band/

Heres the link to the forum.
PLEASE DO BOOKMARK IT.
AND SIGN UP FOR AN ACCOUNT
AND AND AND, BE ACTIVE THERE.

we hope this new forum idea is sucessful, there are various boards, and some for SLS and committee only for them to discuss private matters. there are also NON-BAND RELATED boards. Yes, means you people get to talk about manga, music, etc. JOIN NOW!!! Please do (:

Level camps will begin this Wednesday, good luck to all (:

Well my main purpose of posting here is to ask you all for your opinions, i've been wanting to make a new skin for over a week and can't decide what to use. Band photos thats on Claudine Mam's LJ? Or just goggle images up? What colour does everyone like most? Fullpaged or blog once more? Whats best to fit this month's occasion? I cant think! Well please help me by just simply answering these questions haha. Then please tag on the tagboard with your answers.
edit: color has been confirmed to sky blue/navy blue, according to Hay.

Image: -put url here- (can be more than 1)

Type: Fullpaged/Blog

Scheme: Dark/Bright/Normal (normal would be the current)

So your sentence would be something like "Hey hey yo, use these images that i found: linklinklink" (allowed to post different links in different posts to make it more convenient). Then I would like fullpaged/blog and bright/dark/normal.

Thanks if you have posted or intending to. It really helps to decide (: 1 vote per person. This concerns how the blog will look like and appeal to the members, so please haha gather as much information as you can, ask your fellow band maths who never tagged on this blog to share what they think (i can list out more than 20 people who are in band and never tagged). Cause most likely a week after camp i will change the skin. And i really need to know what to do. Votes would be collected and closed on 13th January 2008. Credits will be given to you for suggesting.

From Stick <3

Band practice today! Mr Yea brought a video for us to watch which lasted for more than 1 hour. It was a video of some Japanese bands and how they practice. The japanese bands were really very good and and the people were soooo hardworking. How great if our band was like that.....

Then there was the warm-ups, rmb, we must must the Concert Band Clinic in the next 9 mths before we go on with the Symphonic Band Clinic warm-ups! Next was a little rehearsal of the upcoming CCA fair. Played Kidz Klassix but Mr Yea said it was not suitable for the CCA fair as it might be a little too 'kiddish' so we changed to Shake, Rattle and Roll. Also had a little run-through for White River Canyon.

Anyway, we must buck up and practice hard for the CCA Fair. As some of you might have heard, Mui Ghern M'am said that most of the Sec 1s are not interested in band so we will have to do very well for the performance and make them ALL come!

SLs, please call your section mates and make them to come. Sec 2s, also mut work hard and pracitce. well, that goes for all seniors too! so see you all in the next practice! MUST COME AHHHHH!!!!
