Breakdown 4/27

Another great job again this week. I know there were several comments about tuning issues, but I really felt that the guitarists sounded great -- however, I am perhaps biased.

Thanks to you guys for being at the meeting - we did have everyone there - so thank you very much to all of you!

One other thing I forgot to mention in the meeting because we did run out of time -- or so we thought... Practices will be moving to Wednesday night at some point during the summer. This is mainly because of my school schedule in the fall semester -- I will have a class from 5:30-8:00 PM on Thursday nights, and there's absolutely no way that we can have practice on that night. Because of this, I am changing my work schedule, and I will be working Thursday nights soon. Therefore, practice will be moving to Wednesday probably in the middle of May. So please begin now to make accommodations... This, unfortunately, is one of the cons of being led by a college student and I apologize for the inconvenience it may cause to all of you. However, as you know, it's not in my control, because I love Thursday night practice -- that was the night of my choice. I will let you AS SOON AS I KNOW when the change will occur.

But for the week at hand...
