November is the busy month!

Sorry that I have not written in a while. Here is a rundown of what I have been doing and what is to come.

I had two midterms last week and the week before. I am taking two linguistics classes online and I had one test on my home computer and another onsite. It is only worth mentioning since I want everyone to know that my time at night is now divided among instruments and homework. Composition has gone out the window but will return when I am able.

This past Saturday, UnCharted (the old MaineStream back together) played a show at Club 302 in Windham. It was short notice so we didn't get the turnout that we got playing it a year ago (packed house).
We still gave our costumed audience a great show with great beats to dance to-- there was even a Halloween costume contest with cash prizes and a tv giveaway.

Here is my setup prior to the show. It looks simple but I make it sound as if more things are being played. I am almost always playing both keyboards simultaneously.

Here is Brandi, our lead singer dressed as Marilyn Monroe. This was the costume contest near the end of the night. Everyone gave us compliments and I am waiting for more "likes" to our Facebook page. If you are reading this, please do so.

Sunday began the week of rehearsals for "The Whiz" at CLT that will lead up to opening night this Friday. The pit band consists of old friends that I have played with for years. We sound amazing and so does the cast. I wish I could see the show but I am stuck behind the cyclorama. If you want tickets then go here:

I will also be in "Honk" at a high school in New Gloucester in the middle of this month. I can barely make rehearsals but I was somewhat roped in without guarantee for compensation (gas). I have a few students in the show so it will be worth it.

The ASO will be having their fall concert also in the middle of the month. I have been rehearsing with them almost every Wed in Manchester.

Finally, in two weeks I will be playing lute and acting as a minstrel in the Franco Center's Medieval Feast. This runs along the same time as the Whiz so I will be in and out. Luckily, only a bridge separates the two buildings so I have little ways to travel.

Hopefully all of these events can gather a huge crowd. Pass the word on!

Thanks!
