0 Comments

 
Audio and video of the concert will be available for purchase in the lobby of the School of Music. Main Office Productions does a 6 camera HD shoot, so there will be plenty of angles and close-ups!  To expedite the order process, I’m attaching the actual order form, in case you’d like to print off and complete beforehand and bring with you. Main Office Productions accepts cash, credit, and check. Orders will be mailed directly to you within 3-6 weeks of the concert. If you have questions regarding the recordings, please contact Brad Ritchie at brad@mainofficeproductions.com. Please note, there is no unofficial photography/videoing allowed in the hall.

All best,

Greg Neblett

PayPal: Help Us Make Dollars AND Sense!

1/17/2017

0 Comments

 
This just makes dollars AND sense for the band. PLEASE send PayPal payments as a Friends & Family payment. We will NOT reimburse fees next year.

Attention: PayPal payers

PayPal has modified their methods of paying different types of entities. Some of you have discovered this already. If you send money to the band through PayPal, please send the payment as a "Friends & Family". This will allow the band to received your full payment without any deductions for their service fee, which is about 3%.

Based on payments received so far just this year through PayPal, we would retain an additional $350-$400 per year.

We will be meeting THIS Tuesday (January 17TH) at 7:00PM in the band room. Please join us for the latest news and information.

I have made reservations for The Old Spaghetti Factory on February 9th for the band and parents. We will go to the Bristol on February 10th for the Jazz Band. The original plan was to take the Jazz Band to Hard Rock Café but the extra expense wasn't worth it.
Here is the breakdown:
FEBRUARY 9TH
STUDENTS $20.00 - This includes the bus and lunch at The Old Spaghetti Factory
PARENTS $14.00 - This is for lunch (this is limited to the first 40 people that send in money)
Lunch includes spaghetti with Marinara, Balsamic Vinaigrette for your salad, choice of a beverage, and Spumoni.

FEBRUARY 10TH
STUDENTS $24.50 - This includes the bus and lunch at The Bristol
PARENTS $18.00 - This is for lunch (this is limited to the first 20 people that send in money)
Lunch will be buffet style in our own banquet room with your choice of an entrée, salad, 2 sides, dessert, and your choice of soft drink.
Please DO NOT put this in the blue box. We will be collecting in class starting on Tuesday.

 Rock In A Hard Place: You'll Never Regretti A Little Spaghetti

1/11/2017

0 Comments

 

​Hello everyone! We will be going to lunch at the Old Spaghetti Factory after our KMEA performance on February 9th. Since all of the concert band students will be attending the concert, this will involve them too.

The Jazz Band will be going to Hard Rock Café after their performance on February 10th so I will need to know how many of you plan to have lunch with them after their performance.

Here is what I need to know. How many parents/family members plan to go with us? PLEASE DO NOT reply to this email with that answer. Tell your students and I will be asking in class tomorrow. I just need a rough estimate so they can get the reservation on the books and get us a price/menu choices for lunch.

WE PLAY AT KMEA ONE MONTH FROM TODAY! Let the countdown begin!
