UW Band to the Packer game
Sunday, October 19, 2008
The UW Band traveled to Green Bay to perform at the Packer/Colts game. We first went to the Packers indoor practice facility to rehearse our Pregame and Halftime shows.
After the rehearsal, the we changed into our uniforms and went to the stadium for the game. This photo shows the band doing "run-on" at the beginning of the pregame show.
Before halftime, the band lined up on the Colts sideline. While we were waiting, the Colts quarterback, Peyton Manning was sitting on the bench right in front of us. Several of the UW Band members were getting photos and I couldn't resist getting one too.
The band performed it's halftime show to an enthusaistic Packers crowd.
After the Packers won the game, the band lined up to go on the field for the 5th-Quarter. You can see that many of the fans stayed after the game to enjoy the 5th-Quarter.
During the 5th-Quarter, the band got to run around on the field and play, and the drum major and many of the trombones circled the "G" in the middle of the field during "Space Badger".
Mr. Stone and I got our photo taken on the "G" as well.

It was a fun trip, and I enjoyed getting to be a part of a Packer game again this year.
Go Pack!
8th-Grade Band performs at Homecoming
October 3, 2008
Today the 8th-Grade Band performed at Homecoming with the Monona Grove High School Bands. The 8th-graders have worked for the past month to learn the "MG School Song", "Louie, Louie", and several other fun songs the high school band plays during the game. They performed "Beauty and the Beast" with the high school band as the homecoming court was introduced.
Everyone seemed to have a good time, although some didn't dress quite warmly enough.
