Danpod Posted October 4, 2017 Posted October 4, 2017 One of the most harrowing experiences in my music career was conducting the orchestra during.....interesting circumstances. Please give a listen! I apologize for any gross details!! Thank you for putting up with me band.dad 1 Quote
LeanderMomma Posted October 4, 2017 Posted October 4, 2017 Oh I can't wait to listen to this one. Sounds like a day in my life as a preschool director! Anthony V 1 Quote
LeanderMomma Posted October 5, 2017 Posted October 5, 2017 Oh my, you have the best stories. That poor girl!! I bet she still feels embarrassed about that moment in her life. That's something that scars you forever! I did one stint in a high school musical (South Pacific), and I'll never forget how much I enjoyed being in the pit for that. I wish I had done more because it truly was a great experience. And fortunately, it was also a puke free one. Oh I just remembered another musical I got to be a part of! I played flute during concert season, but was in the color guard during marching season 8 - 12th grade. (I was fortunate enough to audition for and make the high school band the summer before my 8th grade year--such an honor!). Anyway, I was color guard captain my Junior and Senior years, and my best friend and I were featured during a production of The Music Man. We did like a short 32 count routine front and center of the stage during a parade scene of the musical. I will never forget how fun that was. Great memories from my band years. Good stuff! Quote

Theater is a different animal entirely and I always admired those who could do it properly. LeanderMomma 1 Quote
LostChoirGuy Posted October 5, 2017 Posted October 5, 2017 I did theatre all through middle school and high school (along with choir). I had some great experiences and some not so great experiences. Perhaps the most memorable was getting to "fly" when I was in a production of peter pan. I was in a harness and we had a system of pulleys that lifted and hoisted us across the stage. It was actually really painful, but very worth it. Quote
