Raleigh North Carolina and surrounding areas

Dropped $3500 today.. but in the grown up way.. not the fun way. Adulting sucks

 

the new place?

 

Yep

All kidding aside I’m super grateful for this place. It’s just 800 more a month than our old place. So deposits and all that hit me hard today

I’m up at the crack of dawn and I’m here to tell you, it sure as hell ain’t cold out yet. Doors are coming off this week. When they go back on because of th morning temps is when it’s actually cold outside.

 

This is awesome. You should see the HS band from my HS. Small 2A school makes y’alls school look like a college band lol

 

if you look on the video, right side 20yd line platform at :32 sec you’ll see my daughter slip at the top of the ramp as well as the person behind her.

in the far back you’ll see 2 ATVs pulling trailers, i’m just behind the second leaning against the trailer, at the end you’ll see me trotting ( i don’t run ) out to get my prop ( the platform at the right 15yd line)

15minutes, move everything onto the field, set up, perform then vacate the field with everything back on the track...we do it in 13min 58sec

everyone of those ramps gets carried, all the platforms have wheels, as do all the pit instruments
11 xylophone/marimba, 3 keyboards, 2 full drum kits, 4 timpani, chimes, gong, amps, generator, bass drum and a few other things i’m sure i’m forgetting...and there are 3 more platforms with ramps to be added.....

all this travels in 2 28’ enclosed trailers and a 26’ Penske truck

organized chaos at its finest

 

Was up in rocky mount watching boy play baseball this morning at 7:30. Was a little chilly

 

Now THAT is impressive my friend. I always watched the band folks in awe of how much coordination and hard work it took to make everything work. And thought to myself all I had to do was snap a ball and hit the man in front of me as hard as I could (granted our varsity team had 14 people so I was on the field the entire game, all four years of HS)
