i'm not in band, but i'm in
orchestra (violinist for 6 years!), as well as robotics.
i remember last year, when i was in chorus (because my school didnt have an orchestra yet) i had to miss the last day of UCF because i had a competition. one of our drivers had to come to the competition too, but at a later time, so when he arrived i got the full low-down on what happened last year on the *most important day* at UCF.
i got really lucky this year though; i have a district-wide competition
tomorrow... if it were 2 weeks from now, our human player wouldnt be able to attend (she's in orchestra with me (sting bass)) along with a pit crew member (he's in orchestra too (cello)) and i wouldnt be able to attend either.
