Tidbit of Marimba
Another day
Posted by Chris Carter: Thursday, June 11, 2009 at 8:08 PM
It's been 6 days I think almost a week, and today was interesting, after realizing that 3 tenor players either quit or something happened, behild 2 random kids show up to take their place. I think it's amazing and feel as though one of those tenor spots should have been mine since so many other plates dropped like flies, but hey, I'm glad to be on marimba, cause I am rocking out!!! Today it rained and it was kinda expected so the pit got all the blue rain tarps and covered all the instruments and we all hid under the tarp from the rain it was the best part of drum corps so far, and fun cause we all kinda needed a break from playing, and then the drumline was kind and helped the pit move all the instruments inside... That was the best part cause it was pouring and we tried to figure out how to move everything in without it getting wet... I blogging from my iPhone so xcuse the spelling errors... I guess the best way to show this experience would be by video I have recorded some but have yet figures out to post them from my phone, I'm tired and hope I can strong it's gettig slightly annoying and stressful like the middle of a hard work-out where your body realizes it's about to hurt... But it builds muscle both with the instuments, and dealing with people everyday...

Hey Kiddo,
It was great to see you perform tonight, yall did very well to be newbies again. I still think CapReg's marimba solo was the best of all. Don't forget about the books for reading on the bus. Love you much/very proud, Mom
