see that thing there?? thats the band badge.
YEP, Mr Tay prepared that for the band members.
And the best thing is, THEY CAN WEAR IT DURING PRACTICES!!
it was really heartwarming to see them wear the badge together.
it shows how united they all are, and how much they love band.
---------------------
today, we had our first full dress rehearsal.
so im here to update the alumnis who are performing together with us.
the band will do the opening and the closing of the performances.
we will be playing 'Heal The World' only.
for the opening, we will only play until bar 25. then the other performances will continue.
then finally at the end, the band will play the full piece of heal the world.
understooded?? (: hehe.
---------------------
okay, as for the attire, the main band will be wearing the Band Uniform,
ofcourse with their badges. :D
AND the alumni will be wearing all black. formal black.
it doesnt have to be a button up shirt, neatly ironed and tucked in.
it can be any top that looks FORMAL/NEAT/PRESENTABLE.
probably you can think like Smart Casual? you know?
something comfortable. (: BUT IT HAS TO BE BLACK.
Mrs Ng specifically asked us to wear black.
----------------------
anyway, to remind you guys.
the next full dress rehearsal is 24th Feb (wed).
from 3 pm onwards. it might officially end at 7pm.
