overheard in the rec building
Saturday was ripe with blogging fodder and I need to share this before I forget it.
After the final rec show of the season, the members of the Hawkeye Marching Band were taking photos with their friends, their sections, their families, ect, before heading out to their last pre-game. It brought back memories of my not-so-long ago final year in band. Except this would’ve never been overheard when I was in band:
Mom to son: Honey, do you want your picture with Mr. Kastens?
My mom and I recoiled in horror. I remember when I had my 4th and 5th years in band, and LKK looked physically pained to have to shake my hand and fake a smile in my general direction.
I was in the band.
Back when the director didn’t like me or my friends because we threatened his grip on mediocrity.
