Blowing In The Wind

In case you didn’t know, the Denton High School marching band is awesome. Their jersey shirts tell you so.

Hard work, perseverance, and dedication will take this band all the way to state. It doesn’t hurt that Alan can really blow. Bronco85016

Jill and Dana are just happy to have an excuse to skip family Uno night each Friday. Jill gets her rebellion on by donning the purple eye shadow that Mom says makes her look like a Runaround Sue, and Dana has splashed her entire being with Jean Nate in an effort to entice Alan. And after the game, it’s endless Capri Suns and Fritos with bean dip!

Bronco85015If Alan is oblivious as usual, maybe she can spark some interest from Josh. Who wouldn’t want to be around Josh, when his enthusiasm is so palpable?

  1. Beware! Female flute players are actually nuts. Since piccolos are half flutes they are just half nuts. I am not sure about clarinetists. However since they are all woodwinds, that is where you will the answer,my friend.

  2. It is noteworthy when young and talented people band together to bask in their self-described awesomeness, no matter the decade, Kerbey. Thank you, Now everybody Footloose!

  3. a band post! nice. I have old photo books with pictures of me looking a lot like Jill and Dana up there minus the freckles and subbing in blue eyeshadow for the purple. And I liked Sweet Honesty over Jean Nate. Josh looks like trouble.

    It’s obvious that you’re playing so cool, obeying every rule. Deep way down in your heart you’re burning yearning for some somebody to tell you that life ain’t passing you by. I’m (well, Kenny Loggins, not me personally, though I do share his sentiment) trying to tell you it will if you don’t even try-y-y-y. You’ll get by if you’d only cut loose, footloose.

    Were you in band Kerbey?

    1. Sweet honesty? I doubt they even sold that in Austin. No one would have qualified. Josh is definitely trouble. He thinks he’s Bruce Jenner. I was in choir in 6th grade and so embarrassingly shy that I never auditioned for anything and just stayed a wallflower, dutifully learning lyrics to Broadway show tunes and Ronnie Milsap songs. Seriously. I have no instrument skills. I bought a keyboard and a bass guitar and have no ability at all with them. I wish I did! If I could play the piano, I would just bust open old folk’s home door and launch into my repertoire of Judy Garland songs.
