Martin Luther King 2009 Wilmington

Martin Luther King 2009 Wilmington North Carolina

The compression made it blurry and it is not like that on my computer...darn!

This is a tradition here in my town and my 2nd year trying to capture as much of the preparation and behind the scenes as I can. All news shows only show short snippets and I like to try and capture as many faces as I can! I lost a few bits of footage here and there so I can think of two groups who may be sad to see they are not in the final video...for that I am so sorry. I will try again next year and hope I have a back up battery too!

For my regular friends here...I am working on the Slamdance Film Festival video diary but it will take a little bit. I have almost too much footage so I must decide if I will make it 2 videos (part 1 & 2) or if I will be able to knock it down far enough to load as 1!

Keep you posted...and yes...I have stories to tell and celeb sightings to share and more.

To all my neighbors here in Wilmington...so glad to see everyone out in forced today for Martin Luther King Day! Have a great time with tomorrows Inauguration! I know I will be excited to see history being made when Obama is sworn in...and on the Lincoln Bible no doubt! How cool...

Hey you know...what about Ashley Marching Band? I didn't see them at ALL. You didn't even get the extreme drum battle between Hanover and Ashley, when Ashley completely killed Hanover's band, or the dadada battle? Our the combo of the Ashley sousaphones and Hanover sousaphones. I play sousaphone and I'm suprised I didn't see myself.

well, i had shoulder surgery and it was all i could do to shoot what i did. but i suppose i could have injured myself and stayed longer just to make sure all got every single soul in the parade! that was sarcasm sweetie. i did what i was able and then my battery went dead and i could not do more. if you read the details on this video you might have known already!

Did you get any of Laney's AFJROTC?? I was in the Color Guard.
