[B]ahhh...the school band, i really miss it. Nothing gets the blood pumpin like a concert.Marching band was nothing but a chore though, give me the jazz band any day. [/B][/QUOTE]
Jazz absolutely rocks, and I wanted to learn and play Jazz so damn badly. My freshmen year I was the only freshmen in our Jazz band (and that's saying a lot from my school, lol, no modesty here) but the next year our Jazz band director left, and we got a new guy. Now I was actually happy, because this guy was supposed to have had a REALLY good Jazz program at his previous school, but the entire Jazz band lost interest once the original director left. So the new director thought it was just a joke to have a Jazz band since no one but me and like one other guy was interested. Welp, Haltom doesn't have a Jazz program anymore. Of course you know I just graduated last year and all the sudden there's talk about trying to start it up now. Oh man, that pissed me off so bad.
