Tonight Andy had a band concert over at the High School. It was a much better venue because the first concert was at the school’s cafeteria and it was so packed that we had to stand outside. This time we had fairly decent seats and enjoyed the concert. The concert was also livestreamed and recorded. We were able to share the link with my parents and sisters as well as Allison’s parents. My sister told me that there were some close ups of Andy so that is cerynice. I’ll have to check it out when it comes to Youtube. I was able to zoom in a bit with my phone to capture a few photos of Andy.
After the concert there was a Krav Maga social over at Angle Tree Brewery. I went over for a few hours. It was nice to catch up with my friends from Krav.
Tonight was Andy’s first band concert. This year Andy decided that they would like to learn to play the trombone. We bought Andy one and they’ve been enjoying it. Band is one of their favorite classes and I am happy that there is a band class for Andy. There seems to be a lot of things that Andy has access to at this new school that Andy never had before.
With this being the first band concert there was also a learning curve for us, namely to get there very early to get a seat. I took Andy to rock climbing and then directly from rock climbing to the concert. When we arrived it was already packed. This was my view of the concert.
We all stood in the hallway and could only get into the room after 5,6,7 & 8th grade bands were done and it was just the chorus doing their show. Mom came up to see Andy’s concert but like us, she did not actually get to see Andy play. I’d been looking forward to this and will know for next time. There were way more people here than at the talent show last week.
