FINALLY WE'RE BACK

AND SO WE ARE BACK!
This week I'll focus on arranging Senbonzakura, since I just finished Star Blazers (YAY!).
WE HAVE A CONCERT!
It will be on April 28th, from 2:30~4:00 at the Senior Center, and it'll be for a fundraising event, I believe.
So uh, yeah.
Also, we're looking for a place for rehearsal. We've already got Yilei's house and Sarah's house for the Wednesday and Friday of April break, now we just need one more for Thursday...
If you haven't already, please print out your part for Star Blazers!
I'm pretty sure I emailed most all of y'all for it...if not, please tell me and I'll do it again.
Ok, that's all.

Please tell me if your part is too hard or easy.
Also, we're looking for more vocalists!
Bye bye~

Rehearsal 4 Feedback

As mentioned before in my weekly newsletter...
 LAST TIME ON GAME...
 • We have split the ensemble into two groups: the Guns and Roses group, and the everything else except group.
• New Guns and Roses music was handed out! Ben, Yilei, + Erik - AWESOME sightreading! (I'll try and bring my music next week...keyword: try...) (And Ben, you better keep that music with you, or else...)
• The Everything-Else Group worked on Super Smash Bros., Princess Mononoke, and Uso (Lie). (I think we're pretty good, actually...) (GO PAUL! ALL OF US SUPPORT YOUR SINGING!)

    SOME SCHTUFF TO THINK ABOUT:
• Performance was brought up with the EE group      ...Asian Night performance? Does that sound cool to everyone?
• PRACTICE PEOPLE. Everyone, aim for AT LEAST 5 MINUTES this week. I WILL BE KEEPING TRACK OF EVERYONE'S PRACTICE. And if you don't practice + you're caught = ...you'll do a SOLO next time... * smiles happily *
• I will be taking attendance starting from next week. Whoever can reach full attendance might get a prize~ (Keyword: might.)
• DO NOT LOSE SHEET MUSIC. ALWAYS BRING SHEET MUSIC. PERIOD. If you do... * cracks knuckles and waves flute like old lady with a cane *
• Be sure to sign into the Chenerygame@gmail.com account (password: cheneryGAME101) and ADD YOUR CONTACT INFO. ALL OF IT. Do not worry; we will not stalk you. (for now...)
• We lost Calvin + Tommy. We = sad. We is very much needing a drum setter right now - anyone want to recruit Kathleen?


So tell me in the comments - should we or should we not perform on Asian Night? Is anyone willing to recruit Kathleen? 

ALSO, HEADS UP - WE MUST FINISH ALL OF SET 1 MUSIC BY OCTOBER 31ST.
SO REMEMBER - 

"Play GAME or Die Hard."

JK, of course.

Yeah.
SO FIRST QUESTION:
What music are you missing right now that I can print for you? Anything else I forgot to give you?
SECOND QUESTION:
What's your favorite song? Or least favorite? (Note: You can't put "all". That doesn't really mean anything, okay?)
