I know that I haven't stopped into the forum for awhile now, but I have some news that I felt like sharing with all of my ol' pals on GT.

I made the All-State jazz band in Massachusetts! For those of you that don't know, the all-state jazz band (they also have an orchestra, symphonic band and choir) auditions high school kids from the entire state, and accepts the top kids for each category (ex. two alto saxophones, two tenor saxophones, 5 trumpets). For guitar, there is only one spot, and I made it! We are playing at Symphony Hall in Boston on March 18th.

I decided to post this to all of you because I know that most of you have always given me encouragement. Thank you!
