As we reflect upon another year coming to a close we have an opportunity to look back at the progress we have made as a group and individual. We listened and played through old songs that seemed so hard at first but now seem too easy. The rhythms we read like our native language... could we even read them at all in September? Even our habits and teamwork, cleaning up the band room and stage like we are on automatic. We have a long way to go, but right now we can look back on where we have come from and admire our journey.
