Sweet

I know school’s back in session, cuz I can hear the Warren Easton High School Marching Band. Right now they’re directly in front of our house, playing “Sweet Dreams Are Made of This.” It’s a good thing I like that song. I’ll be hearing it pretty much every day from now until Mardi Gras.

They are LOUD and surprisingly tight for this early in the school year.

Now they seem to be working on fundamentals. I didn’t even hear a horn. Will they be ready in time for Mardi Gras? […]
