Hey Mark,
My wife says she isn't giving it back...We should be there, so I will make her bring it so you can steal it BACK from her. She's still not that big, I think you can take her.
(take my wife, please?????)
see you there.
no backbend for the old woman

Sorry OhioGal, it's your turn to blow the band. I know you did it last year, but you have some years to catch up on.*
Transfer, my pacemaker doubles as a defibrillator. Just plug me in. OH! Generator: check.
F30: Oh, I'm getting my whistle. And yes I can take her..........with help and a ball bat.
*Sorry for dangling my participle in front of everyone.

I would be a slacker, so feel free to pester me. We marched last year and had a BLAST with the other Mellophones, but it took up all of homecoming. This year, we're tailgating, watching the game, and enjoying the band. Next year we may go back to marching. The possibilities are endless.

That's awesome!!! The more alumni to show up our chair step, the better IMO!!! All of you who haven't signed up, do it now!!!! (Except for Grant...he need to tailgate with his fan club
)

Well, don't expect too many of us to show you guys up when it comes to marching at all. We're mostly old, less flexible and definitely more out of shape in general than we used to be. Ok, I'll speak for myself there so as not to offend the other old, less flexible alumni, but, you know....
Either way, I'm starting to get pumped for this weekend. I always look forward to it.
See you all there.

Me too! The E and G notes that lazer through the band from the trizzumpets in the Fanfare can get anyone pumped!

We may just have a thing or two in mind for Birdland as well
Also, there's an outside chance you may hear a dubba C at the end of the fanfare one of these times, probably not during pregame though.

We have people in band that can do that now. Atleast one maybe two
Every year we have kids who can get up to the G's with ease but we don't do it out of respect for you alumni
