Well, the hour is upon us! Our first performance of the season is next week – July 20! Here are the all the juicy details:
When: July 20 – 6:30 pm Call Time (Scales at 6:55 pm, Baton drops at 7:00 pm)
Where: Lindenwoods Terrace, 490 Lindenwood Drive East
Dress: Forest Green Millennium Shirts OR Forest Green Shirts OR Black Shirts. Definitely wear bottoms – of the clean and neat variety.
Bring: Stands, stand lights, clothes pins/clips/plexiglass/any other thing that will keep your music from blowing away unceremoniously, water, hat, bug spray… (At this hour, we probably don’t need sunscreen), music. (This is the room with all the posts if the weather is bad or where we play under the pergola if the weather is fine, so we’ll need to be prepared for either scenario. We don’t usually get vote in where we’re playing).
MASKS: Please wear your mask at all times when you are not playing (or seated in playing formation).
This is an exciting gig for us. We were invited to return both last year (when we weren’t even rehearsing!) and this year! They like us! They really like us! So let’s go out and have a really fun time with them!
