Jonathan's Christmas Concert
We had the good fortune to attend Jonathan's Christmas concert on Monday. We were able to enjoy the musical stylings of the some of the Wester, Clark and Centennial bands. They all did a great job and looked very dapper in their concert attire. I have to say that Wester looked the best in their formal wear. This was their first time to wear their concert uniforms and MaMaw and Grady were there to help Jonathan get ready. The stories we heard about his confusion over his tux, you would think Jonathan never wears nice clothes to church on Sunday. Now, granted a tux is different than a white dress shirt and tie. But, still! It seems he tried to wear a graphic tee under his white tux shirt. He put white tux shirt on over his head (and, yes, he does that with his dress shirt, too). He tucked his vest in. I am not sure if there were any other calamities. Those were just the ones I heard about. Jonathan required a second dinner, because MaMaw made him eat at 5:30. That just didn't feel right, so he had to eat again when we ate dinner.
Dinner and uniforms aside, he did a great job. I have been hearing the tuba part to Instant Christmas Concert and Above and Beyond for a while now, so it was great to hear the other parts.
Biggest thing I learned? I'm glad I didn't become a band director. At concerts and competitions, you have tons of strangers looking at your butt all night.
