So today was the last of our away-from-GHS public performances.  We ended up with a 1 and two 2s, better than almost anyone expected, but at least we managed to give a better run than our average.  The first band we heard was so together though!  They were able to play for entire sections with no conductor, which allowed her to actually spend most of her time cuing and bringing emotion into their performance, something I wish Id seen more in our ensemble.

Afterwards, 11 of us went to the Flying Biscuit - which was fun and delicious as always.  Anyone who hadn't been before was an instant fan - there's no way they'll ever have any problem; the whole town loves it!

Then this evening I think I may have fixed our internet issue - we got a new coaxial cable splitter, which may have been the problem w/ our spotty connection, because we haven't had any problems tonight *knock on wood*.

I've been given even more new music from Joe!  Bruckner is the composer of the day, and I'm really liking his work so far.  I'll have to listen to more of it later.
