Re: Our National Anthem

Thanks Richard,

It was pretty cool in that I had a hand in arranging the music we played. You really can't hear it but at the end we put 1/8 triplets and flaired out into a chord. It's covered up by the applause but I'll take it. First time I ever had 2,832 people all clapping for something I was a part of!

I felt like the Trumpets over powered the ensemble a bit after reviewing the video; I was thinking that six trumpets was going to be a bit much. Either way it was great.

The hockey game was great too! It went to overtime, then a shoot out, and prior to the shoot out there was a penalty shot awarded in the overtime round. Not often to see all of these elements in the same hockey game.

Oh yeah; and by the way if I haven't mentioned it I love hockey!
