You'll get your Music on Monday.

On Comedy Night
Congratulations!!!!
Everyone who helped sell tickets for the Comedy Night just earned themselves something like thirty-two cents.
Luckily, we had just enough ticket sales last night to cover the bill for the entertainers. With the help of a few band Parents who were willing to take it upon themselves to put up a concession table in the lobby, the boosters made a little profit.
For the dozen students who took pre-sale tickets and returned neither tickets or money - If i don't have the unused tickets/ money in my mail box by the end of the day Friday you should expect that $40 bucks to come out of your booster account.
[In a contrastingly positive tone] I think the Comedy Night was a success. We've found another fund raiser that is easy to organize and has the potential to be very profitable with out the hassle of selling "things" to people. I also think people who turned out for the show were satisfied with the entertainment they enjoyed for the price, which will make it an easier sell the second time around. I also think that the comedians were very entertaining - it just goes to show that even a "clean" humored event can make us all laugh.
I am going to plan to have another Comedy Night in the spring. Tickets will be made available well in advance. Newspaper, Radio, and Poster advertisements will be out in full force. And everyone that came out last night and had a good time will have a chance to bring a friend who missed out the first time around. I'll have to schedule a date with the Comedy Blast Inc. and the high school, but tentatively I'm looking at the month of May.
check out the poll in the margin and vote if you were there.

IMPORTANT
Friends.
In order for us to perform at Disney World in November I must submit to them video footage of the NS band performing: The Disney people would prefer to see us in a parade setting (since we'll hopefully march in a park parade). Because I am usually marching with the band I don't happen to have any video tapes of you folks parading. So help me out if you can...
I NEED a VHS or DVD of the NS band MARCHING in a PARADE, and I need it ASAP
the video must be from a parade within the past year so anything with an '08 on the label is fine (even St Pat's or Memorial Day). Also, the band must be playing music as they pass on screen.
Shoot me an e-mail or comment or call if you can be of assistance.
