Quick Update

Band season is nearing an end, but things are still busy. A long drive to Allentown this past Saturday for the USSBA All-States Championships. We took last in our division. We did have some marching issues etc. We were also competing against some great bands. It wasn't a bad weekend. It's better to lose to great bands.

This week is more band practice followed by USSBA National Championships in Annapolis,MD on Saturday.

woodwind ensemble rehearsals start this week for me, since we have a performance outside of progressive music on November 18th before the McKeesport Christmas Parade. We're excited to bring the marching band to the parade as well, since we will leave for the Macy's parade two days after the mckeesport parade.

Here at Progressive, rental season is slowing down. It was a busy one as always. We're gearing up for Christmas now.

I'm working on a presentation to be done at the January NAMM trade show. My first deadline is tomorrow.

I feel there is more to write - all I can think of at the moment. Off to rehearsal.
