Today, I finally have a chance to attend band prac, and guess what I find?
The band room was totally devoid of any form of discipline whatsoever. The entire middle section consisted of 1 saxophone and 1 horn. Only the lower brasses had sufficient numbers to be even called a section. Band, I am sorely
disappointed with you.
Even though I only got the score for "The Incredibles" today and was sight-reading, I can't say I heard any difference between my clumsy playing and the rest of the band. Fancy calling yourselves the ACS(I) IB Wind Ensemble. I don't think any of you guys deserve to be called part of
any band/ensemble/music group. Incidentally, in case you guys haven't realised, concert is in 1 month's time, and so far I haven't even heard a
single note that I can not cringe at. And how many members of the exco were around to take attendance for the meagre number of people present?
No wonder Dr Lee would choose to take another job. If I were him, I would have done so a long time ago already. This is just ridiculous. I'm betting even the Junior Band plays better than us now. I hope you guys are satisfied with being mediocre, or are you guys just hoping to have the whole world laugh at us on our 40th anniversary?
I know I haven't been able to attend practice as of late due to my other commitments, but seeing the state the Band is currently in, I think you guys should spend a moment to think about your attitudes. Was this is the attitude that got us our Gold with Honours? Is this the attitude that will get us our Gold with Honours next year? I doubt it. WAKE UP.
Argh. Ranting again. I gotta stop this habit. =(
