The Day the Music Died

Hokay, so here's the earth...er I mean hokay, so don't be fooled by the title of this one, no famous musicians died or anything like that. It was the best "day" title I could think of for tonight. Tonight was the last night of the Jack Ward Festival (aka 1st choir concert of the spring). It went great and its over!! Time to celebrate...by..uh...um...eating at Carl's Jr. and getting the cheesecake for dessert? Sure why not!

Another reason to celebrate: I'm finally starting to feel better. I'm not completely recovered but feelin a lot better and it still didn't affect my singing. Something Dr. Alt said during our warm-ups kinda made sense of why being sick didn't affect me too much. She said something to the effect that if you're sick the night of a concert you shouldn't let it change your singing, just keep doing it the same way you've been doing it. Basically, it's partly in your head. If you concentrate on it too much it's gonna take your focus off the music and of course if you're not focused you probably won't do as well. It's all about where your focus is. Good life lesson, really.
