Columbia, SC (Rain Out)

Well... Just as it always works out... Our home show got rained out. We started stretching for the show and it started lightning. They ended up postponing the show for 45 minutes and then cancelled it. I was really bummed because I was looking forward to marching the FirstBEAT show. We got to rehearse in the stadium that we were supposed to perform in tonight for our afternoon ensemble too.

Hopefully this weather will stop and we can finally get back to rehearsing and doing shows normally. Finals is 1 month from today! We need all the rehearsal that we can get. Honestly, the only thing that I am worried about concerning the rain is the humidity that comes afterwards.

We are staying the night at Irmo High School for a rehearsal day (same place as last night). We get to rehearse in the stadium again tomorrow. We should get a lot cleaned up from a chordal tuning and ensemble standpoint. It has a really high pressbox so the staff has a great vantage point to help us clean our show. We leave here tomorrow and head to Valdosta, GA / Pensicola, FL.

Off to bed!
Later days,
Patrick

I was so sad it was cancelled. I am glad I was there to at least watch rehearsal, but not quite the same without the uniforms. 200 miles and no show!
