Happy Mother's Day Band Weekend

We spent a lot of Saturday and half of today preparing for upcoming contests. Had a crew in from Winnipeg, and had quite a few runs in the chilly spring air on the grass. Refined the sets and medley a little more, worked on some sound issues and unison playing, and made some summer plans. Last night, a few band members were recalling a bus-missing incident following the Glengarry Highland Games at Maxville, and they decided to put words to music, and even some choreography appeared.

Enjoy this cautionary tale from "Jordan Roy and the Rae Street Band," which underlines the point that we should listen to our mothers. And how timely that message was, being completed just as the clock turned on Mother's Day.

Hope that you, and your mothers, had a great day.
