Band Boy

Bre, Alex and I (the Mom) were honored to attend Mike's band concert this week.
I am so proud that he has stuck with his instrument these three years when so many of his peers have dropped band.

They played a lot of great music, my favorite being "Crimestoppers".  It was a mixture of the Law & Order (one of my favorite shows) theme song and Hawaii 5-0 theme song.  The band teacher convinced the principal to come play drums with the band!

In the middle of the song the D.A.R.E. officer came busting into the auditorium with his bull horn and siren blaring, yelling that a crime had been committed.  He then cuffed the principal and took him in the back and the kids started playing again.  When they came to the Hawaii 5-0 part the principal came running across the stage holding a boogie board wearing surf shirt, with the officer in pursuit.  The whole gag was hilarious!!!  I can't believe they planned it and managed to keep the whole things a secret from all the parents!!

We had a blast, and I look forward to attending more concerts next year when he plays as a high school student!

WE LOVED IT!!
