Out With The Old And In With The New

Just a few days ago, we had our EGM (which translates to: Emergency General Meeting). As per usual, warning letters were given out and the rules were tweaked. That, and the date for AGM (also known as: Annual General Meeting) was officially announced.

It will be held this Saturday, on the 14th of  July from 9.30 a.m to 12.30 p.m.

Naturally, AGM is mandatory for ALL BAND MEMBERS, including colour guards and Sinfoniettas. All ex-members, be it band, colour guards, or Sinfonietta are very welcomed to join us. As everyone knows, this is when the old committee steps down and a new one steps up. So good luck to all candidates and all the best for the future of band!

And We're Back

Back to Sepang again that is. As mentioned before we would be going to Sepang International Circuit in Kuala Lumpur to perform for the Shell Eco-Marathon as we did the year before.

Members gathered at the band room last Friday as early as 5.20 a.m. to shift the percussion instruments to the lorry and prepare to take off. Once we reached Sepang, we had one rehearsal and it was show time. We marched from one end of the straight track to the other and disbanded with a single stroke of the drum. We opened our static performance with a Malaysian tune, Malaysia Ku Gemilang. Following that was Mambo No. 5 and the ever familiar Perro Caliente. To close our performance, we played a recognizable tune, Abba Gold.

After the performance, we had a rest and some food. The hospitable staff at Sepang then split the band up into several groups and took us on a tour, letting us get to meet the teams and know their cars. Once the tour was over, we thanked the lovely people and returned to Catholic before early noon was over.
