My new band teacher shares a soul with Mr. B... brassocentrism and all. I had to "audition" (play a few scales, read a few bars) this afternoon, and their modes of interacting with me are strikingly similar. I sucked at playing as usual (actually, I honestly could not care less if I get last chair), but I can already tell pretty much how things will go. Especially if I join the pep-band he's trying to start... With all my peppy pep-band experience, it could be kind of fun. I think I'd do that over concert band any day, if concert band entails playing the Folk Song Suite.
