Hey All,
I recently got back from Pleasanton, California. My band (The Wasatch and District Pipe Band) competes down there every year. It is the biggest games we go to each season so we look forward to it all year long. This was also one of the funnest band trips yet! Here are a few pictures to show what I was up to. Also...if you are wondering what that awsome music is you are hearing....they are called bagpipes...enjoy.
This is Lauren, me and Brandi at the Pleasanton Fair Grounds. It was hot....really hot.
I got me a pair of ghillies! In case you do not know, the 'ghillie brogue' is the traditional scottish shoe worn during competition....contrary to popular belief, it is not the cheap pair of payless shoes with super long laces. I have been in the band over 6 years now and this is my first pair! They are expensive...real expensive.
If you have ever been to San Francisco, this picture will need no explanation, but for those of you who have been deprived this privilege....there are artists that paint right on the pier. Not physically ON the pier but on their canvas on the pier. This is no ordinary artist's paint my friend...oh no...they create their masterpieces using only spray paint...and they finish one in less than 15 minutes! Can you believe that? Go see for yourself! It is worth going to The Cisco for this show alone...but you don't have to....you can also go for.....

...The Chocolate.Oh...and I almost forgot the most important part! The judges make comments on a score sheet for the band so we can keep improving. Guess what he said about the tenors?! He called us "Tasty"...that's right...we are now officially "Tasty Tenors" of the wasatch!
