Hello band! Just a few reminders for all of you to prepare yourself for tomorrow's performance. (:
1) All of you will be release at 10.30am tomorrow and after you have been released, immediately go and change into your band uniform. Make sure you tuck in your shirt properly. You will be given 20mins to change into your band uniform AND also you need to set up your instruments by 10.50am. Everybody should be assembling with your band uniform and instruments at 10.50am, do not be late as the time will be very limited tomorrow! NOTE: The helpers DO NOT need to come at 10.50am.
2) When the performance ended, Peiyi will say 1, 2, 3 and then all of you will bow together at the same time. And remember to whisper 1, 2, 3 (Not too loud, haha) before you go back to your original position. It will look nicer and neater if everybody do the bowing at the same timing. After that, EVERYBODY will put your instruments, files and stands inside the music room before all of you settle down at the side to watch the performance. Each section should choose one corner or spot to put your things neatly.
3) All the helpers will have to sit in one straight line at the side of the hall. Helpers do not need to come early, you just have to be at the hall by 12.30pm like the rest of the students. When the band have finish performing and have taken away their instruments, files and stands, quickly come in and take away all the benches and chairs. It will be faster if the guys take 1 bench each and the girls take 1 set of double chairs. We have to be fast in clearing away everything. Helpers just have to wear your school uniform.
4) This is for the members performing: If you have finish putting everything into the musicroom and there is still benches/chairs left in the hall, quickly go in and take away the benches/chairs. Put the benches back into the canteen and as for the band chairs, put at the usual spot where you normally put the band chairs, neatly stacked up. Try to keep your nosie level down as the other people are still watching the performance. Please have self-initative and try to help so that it won't be so chaotic. (:
5) No instrument stands allowed unless you're playing 2 instruments. Thats all for the reminders, good luck to everybody for the performance! We must put in our 100% effort and hardwork and impress the school with our wonderful playing, show that we, Damaiwindz can be a very good band! I believe in you guys. (: Although it might not be the SYF tomorrow, we still have to try our very best to play the 2 pieces nicely. Especially for the sec4s as this might be your last performance. Good luck! (:
Zoey.
