Last year around this time, I posted an FAQ newsletter update, which was a big hit with my tens of loyal readers last year... With the winter concert drawing near, this week's newsletter is nothing but questions and answers for Wednesday's concert.
Q: When is the concert?
A: Wednesday, December 7
Q: Can we come early to help set up?
A: Yes, as long as it's no earlier than 4:30 PM and you are with your parents. Bring decorations or lights and we may even use them as part of our concert!
Q: When is call time?
A: 5:45 PM for Beginning Band. No later than 6:00 PM for everybody else.

A: Parents may wear whatever they want!! But seriously, here's the concert attire for each group:

- Intermediate Band, Advanced Band, Jazz Band: Tuxedo outfit issued to your student, including blue cummerbund, bow tie, vests (certain Jazz Band members) and black marching shoes or dress shoes.
Q: Can we decorate our instruments or ourselves?
A: Absolutely! Holiday hats are encouraged. If you decorate instruments, make sure the decorations do not get in the way of the functionality of the instrument or damage the lacquer.

A: The concert starts at 6:00 PM
Q: What time does the concert end?
A: The entire event should finish around 8:00 PM.
Q: Where do kids sit when they don't perform?
A: They will sit together as a group in a predesignated area. Parents are welcome to sit with the kids (in fact, the more parents who do will help students stay focused on the performance).
Q: How much is admission?
A: My concerts are always FREE!
