band! i think you all know what im going to talk about.
first thing : ATTIRE
how many times do you want the welfare to repeat about this?
isit so hard to just clip up your fringe and tuck in your shirt?
second thing : the band's pace
i shall make it very simple
the faster you move, the faster you all can improve and play beautiful music :)
third thing : SLACK
try to think why you join band in the first place
isit because you are really interested to play an instrument and to play music?
if yes, then you musn't start slacking
think about the audience who are going to listen to it
they wouldnt want a lousy performance from us right?
i need all the SLs and the ASls to help with this stuff
i cannot be going to every section and correct each individual's mistake
and SLs, please remember that this year is the SLs year.
we expect more from you from now on.
thats all that i have got to say.
and i hope that after this,the members can cooperate with the leaders and your SLs.
please give us more respect.
you respect us, we shall respect you in return
:
do you all like the song?
i was impressed that you guys can actually conquered almost half of the piece.
well done!
and if you put more effort on it, i think that we will be able to deliver it beautifully.
