So here I am...a small town girl...in Richmond at night..and I'm terrified. Sure I've stayed in New York, Toronto, Orlando...but in all reality those trips were with at least 60 other people. Love high school band right? Ha.
And of course that is the first time I've mentioned on here that I was in the band. Dorky right? Yes of course. I played the flute and piccolo (yes I've heard all the one time at band camp jokes). I was the only piccolo..and I hated that. Every time I hear a piccolo to this day..I cringe. I remember flat out refusing to play it during concert season my senior year because it gets cut from EVERYTHING. So I would wind up sitting there feeling retarded while the rest of the section played on their lovely flutes. But my band director convinced me he absolutly needed that piccolo...that it would make ALL the difference in the world... (and then I got cut from a million parts)...
We always did have fun in band..even when we were miserable...things worked out.
I had a lot to say..But I'm too tired. Car rides seriously kill me. Tomorrow...I'll need to explain more about the car ride.ha.

Greetings from a fellow band nerd and parent to two band nerds! I played flute too, but was not GOOD enought to play the piccolo. So there. You were actually an elitist and not "cut" from playing.
Mu oldest daughter plays sax and Diva daughter plays Trombone ( and she is a little thing too). I am reading as you can tell, getting caught up. The information about tyour brother just makes me so sad Rachael. I know this is an awful time for you and I wish that I could do something to help you. I would if I could, I promise.
