This year, I've been fortunate to have many opportunities to learn, practice and perform music.

I've been involved with the Oregon Marching Band for the past four years. During that time I've played the fight song hundreds of times, learned 13 field shows (including three different pregames), traveled to 8 away games (including a better bowl game every year), switched instruments and put in thousands of hours of rehearsal time. It's been heaven and hell, sometimes at the same time.

I've participated in the Oregon Campus Band at least one term every year since my freshman year. This is the first year I've done it in the same term as OMB, which makes Wednesdays extra long. It's a fun group with no drama and very low stress, and plenty of opportunities to gain experience on other instruments.

This year, I joined the Oregon Symphonic Band for the first time during my college career. It's definitely a step up from any other group I've ever participated in, but rehearsals move quickly and efficiently and it's a fun group of musicians to play with.

Next term, I'll be performing at men's basketball games (as well as some women's games) with the Oregon Basketball Band, along with many of the people I know from OMB. I loved basketball band in high school, and I tend to start pining for marching season about the middle of winter term, so maybe this group will help ease the inevitable withdrawal pain? :)

Note: I know it's been a while since I've posted. I've been very busy with school and marching band. Hopefully I can get back on some sort of regular posting schedule soon.

Here's some pretty pictures for you!
