in '81 we didn't have this coverage!...back then, billy walls was BD...we had to perform a NEW show every week...we had 1 hr a day to make a new show for AU halftime...while the band looks great, don't you work the same show, over, week after week?
yes, i guess, by the end of the season, it should look GREAT!?
@luckyjinxer perhaps my words were a bit harsh, and i apologize...i realize that the AUMB operates under an entirely different "model" than during my years...
@1clarinet1981 just to clarify, the AUMB performs as many as six or seven shows a season to this day. It is true that the two major shows are often played first to one side then the other; however the band still works hard to present a new show nearly every week. and now with rehearsal at just four days a week opposed to every day. I think the bar continues to be set high for the AUMB and we've continued to honor the standard of excellence put forth by previous classes.
