Quite a lot has happened since I last wrote, which actually caused the long silence in the first place. The sudden cancellation of our football team here at UAB was a shock to everyone, and the subsequent fallout has kept most of us very busy. Things are looking good for us though - there are significant signs that the football team will be brought back (maybe 2016 or 2017), but most importantly, the Marching Blazers will continue to function this fall. We are planning many great things, and I hope that it will lead to a new direction in what we do.
The CD project is in a holding pattern, but will be wrapping up shortly. Just waiting on the videos to be edited and to complete the jacket with all pertinent information. The cover design has been completed, and it looks GREAT. I'm really excited about getting it out there. Hopefully we can have everything on iTunes and Amazon within a month or so, with a physical release sometime after that.
Additionally, I've recently been picked up by Symphonic Pulse Percussion, a new company, to digitally publish some of my original UAB Drumline cadences. For the past year or so, I've had everything posted for free on this site, but when I saw they were looking for more product, I sent my link to them to peruse and here we are. Looks like it will be a good thing moving forward, so here's to new partnerships!
Wind Symphony concert tonight, snow day tomorrow (likely), then getting ready for Percussion Ensemble on April 1...
Woo!
