Sunday morning provided a much needed break with rehearsals not starting until 1 pm. We held a combined music sectional and started with our annual name game. The object of the game is to correctly give the first names of every member in the section. Because the section is large, the section leaders sweeten the deal by offering to buy Papa Del's pizza for anyone who wins. This year, we had six winners. They'll be getting free pizza sometime later in the season.
We also played through one of our new section features arranged by Zach. With a little extra work by us outside of rehearsal, it can definitely sound good enough to make it on to the program at the Assembly Hall concert.
The night rehearsal ended up being cut way short with threatening weather coming very close to us. Pete told the band he did not want to chance it. Even though we're now behind schedule, we shouldn't have any problem catching back up in time for our first game down in St. Louis. The work ethic has been too good to let us fall short.
