Hi band! Regarding tmr attire,
pls report in:
Your school approved tee and PE shorts and school shoes and NO ANKLE SOCKS.
(There will be attire check!)

Also, you dont have to bring your full school uniform to camp if you are going home to change(in the morning) before the parents night. But you must make sure you are going home to change if not just bring it.
If you dont have a pink tee, please go and borrow it or something! (Pink tee- dont have to be plain one, can have design, as long as 40% of it is PINK)

Btw, there is a change in parents night' repertoire, pls look at the post below for the changes.

Thanks! Lets make this camp an awesome one alright!

Sunday, December 5, 2010 PARENTS NIGHT!!

HEY FELLOW BAND MATES!!
For those who attended ACS Barker's Parents Night yesterday, THEY PLAYED LIKE GRADE 5 SONGS!
And they sounded good. So IF THEY CAN DO IT, SO CAN WE DAMAIWINDZ! Even though the songs we are performing are :
~perc ensemble~
A day at disneyland
Fiesta de los bravos
Instant concert
nottingham sketches
~ensembles~

Concerto de amore
Kyrill
Sock Hop
Best of Queen
A crazy mixed up X'mas
And all of them arent grade 5, i am determined to make parents night a enjoyable one for us and our parents! Even though some of the songs are really simple, what really counts is if we put in our heart and soul into the song and not its grade ok. Lets work hard and give this concert our utmost effort because we dun want to regret right? We just work hard, and expect only the best!
Also, we are going to perform our CHOICE PIECE! Lets show it off to our parents all right!(:


REGARDING MONDAY'S S.I:
We need it because tuesday is our rehearsal and we are running out of time!!
I'll also be implementing gimmicks into Sock Hop tonight and Best of Queen.


SATURDAY IS OUR BAND'S "BIG DAY" GUYS! The effort must really come out from every single one of u, not only a handful of you. In the end, we are going to be the ones determining the outcome of our parents night.


GOOOOO DAMAIWINDZ!!
May!=]

Wednesday, December 1, 2010 30th Nov 2010's Announcement(s)!

Hello hello Damaiwindz!
I'm posting the announcements here since we ended late today and we don't want to release you all late.
#1) There will be Student Initiated Practice(S.I.) this coming Thursday(2nd Dec,7.45am to 4pm) and next Monday(6Dec, 7.45am to 4pm[Compulsory] [4pm-6pm is optional]).
      It is only during S.I.s that you can practice your Parents Night songs.
      Official band practices are being taken up by Kyrill and/or singapore flyer/Memories of friendship.
     SO S.I.s are very very important.Without you coming back for S.I.s,there will be absolutely no results produced from you for parents night.
      I hope to see all of you come back.
#2) Those who raised up their hands today who have NO BAND UNIFORM,please meet Weitian this Thursday.
#3) CONCERT!
     ACS Barker has invited us for their school's Parents Night!

    Free of charge!
    7 plus
    One of Mr Wong's band!
They are a very well organised band,with great leaders (Be it the top 3,or Section leaders),which resulted in their grand parents night.
I hope you guys can go there and expose yourself to different "cultures" of band(s),and expose yourself to their playing! It will be a very interesting event,and you don't have to pay-.-
So grab your band mates and go all right!
Please tell me who is going by THIS THURSDAY.
