Superior!

Last minute instruction from Mr. Gish



Last Saturday I took Zach to Wenatchee for the Band Festival. We had to get up at 5 and be out the door at 6! That was a struggle, but we had a fun day. Zach made up names for our family in the car. I am Captain Bartschi, Eric is Leut. Lee, Zach is Private James, Tyra is Medic Ghlyn, Cole is Sargeant Eric, Slade is Tank Slade and Brett is Commander Vaty. We didn't know if a Captain or Leut. ranked higher, so we called Eric. He didn't find it very funny that Zach had ranked me higher. Zach was part of a percussion ensemble called CornSkillet. They received a 2+ for their rating. Zach also had a snare drum solo. He did so good and was awarded a 1! Here it is.

OOPS the video will not load. Try again later!

Congrats Private James! May you continue to march to the beat of a different drum. You should make a movie and call it "drum & drummer".
Here is a question for you...
Q: What do you call a kid with a set of drums?
A: The poster child for Birth Control.

you probably heard about the bass player who locked his keys in the car...
He had to break a window to get the drummer out!

Keep up the good work.
You are great!
