I'm sure they much prefer having us stuck at the very bottom below the glass rather than somewhere we can project. All I can say is trying to fit musical instruments and stands in Messa's bleachers is not a very successful task, and playing Children of Sanchez there makes me feel like the the building's going to come down.
And yeah, Colgate's trip to Union was during their spring break so we played with their band, it was a lot of fun!
Good to know the safety band tradition stuck.
That's too bad things changed, as I really liked that open area. It was right at the vertex where the ceiling met the wall, so it created an incredible bandshell. Granted, the acoustics in a salt barn aren't going to be anything like Troy Savings Bank Music Hall, but it was one of the best places, from an acoustical projection standpoint, where I've played with the band.
