Killing three birds with one bird.

Had my jazz audition today. All things considered I thought it went well. Which is scary, because I don't know if anyone else feels this way but whenever I think I do well at something I am usually unpleasantly surprised with a bad result. So I guess we'll see about that. Baca is gone, so Crowell and Hudson ran the auditions. Sweet.

Tomorrow is the concert band audition. I feel ready. On the docket isssss:
---------------------------------------
-Rota Trombone Concerto (Mvt.1)
-William Tell (Commonly known around these parts as "Bill Tell")
-Javelin (band excerpt which is kind of wicked...)
-Sightreading

I feel super confident except for the last one. Sightreading and I are not friends. We fight on a daily basis. But oh well, we'll see how it all pans out this semester.



Jazz tour is a week from today. I guess we're getting a few new charts which are supposedly hard as well as our other music. That'll be a treat...I have a feeling this weekend will be very VERY jazz oriented. Holla. We're also stopping at my dad's school in Delevan. Their jazz band is small, but they do an ok job. I think it'll be a great experience for them. Plus, who doesn't love Nachito?!?!?!? Oh yeah, and I love jazz.


Heath Ledger died. I don't even like him as an actor really, but suddenly yesterday I got home from school and everyone was all sad because this guy died. Too bad for him, but I was much sadder when the Croc Hunter died. Tragic.

Ok thats all I have time for at this point. Since I've added working out (every night except Tuesday) to my list this semester I now have a whole hour less to waste every night. I guess its time well spent though...I don't want to turn into a big white whale trombone chick.
