Most people don't go to tech schools for music. So the few bands they do have, they put their heart and sould in. Which is awesome for them. I think there are lots of us who would like to put more time in it, but when your in symphonic winds, jazz band, road runner review, brass quintet's, keeping up with your lesson work, and then your classes, and any other ensembles outside the school (a few guys do drum corps, or gig around the city) It's hard to find time to get things exactly the way we want them. La Tech puts time in their band and it shows! It's awesome! Just letting you guys know why its so hard to get things to change in the RRR. I know excuses are like a**holes and everyone has them... but i'm using one now."
I guess that's kinda why our alumni financial support sux. We don't have graduates of our own law school or medical school (just the cream of the crop of other schools!). . . CPAs and Engineers are too frugal with their money . . . .:icon_wink:
