Quick note: "Next blog" button is not recommended at work!! I don't think I need to explain.
Woo-hoo! My hit counter crossed the 200 mark! I think about 20 were me reloading the page on my remote access site, but who cares!
The band must travel tonight. We go to our rival team's school, Travelers Rest (TR for short, of course). I, as a band member in high school and college, loved it. However, I, as a pseudo-chaperone, hate going to rival school games in general, not just that away ones.
Just to give you an example of how bad I dislike it, here's a past scenario:
Last year, the Berea/TR game was at Berea (FYI: pronounced Ba-ree-ah, not Bear-ee-ay!). When we have home games, our band officers travel to the opposing side and meet with the other band's officers. You know... just so our kids can actually meet someone outside the Berea world. To get to the band, you have to walk past the entire opposing crowd. While doing that, we got cussed out, things thrown at us, and someone picking a fight with our drum major... and that was a HOME game! That being said, I am not looking forward to going to TR's home field. Good thing: at least their officers come to us tonight. And, by the way, TR and Berea's bands are not rivals, just the sports teams. We can't really be rivals when they're about 75 people larger than us!
Wish me luck.
Oh yeah, you can check our team out (and maybe a glimpse of the band) on the "Friday Night Hits" videos on www.thecarolinachannel.com!

I dunno, if you turn graphics off in your web browser, and turn the font down tiny, you can probably do the "next blog" button.
As for the violence of the hooligans issue, just remember: no one messes with the soussaphone!
I'm back... no violence... a lot of lip from both sides... too much to explain tonight. I'll try tomorrow.
