Speaking of chairs... they don't have anything really high enough for contrabass playing. I steal the conductor's chair. haha
As good as CSPAC is (our music home), there are a few imperfections... but I also have all my classes there everyday and I know it inside out, flaws and all. It's a great building. It will most likely take place around the halls, in the lobby. We have a recital hall, a concert hall, a theatre and a lab theatre. It's like a mini Kennedy Center!
We have lots of practice rooms, each with a Steinway piano (Concert grands, most of them anyway). 3am practicing is not unusual, but you have to have card access to get in after 11pm.
As for crabs... no one knows them better than me! I grew up in Southern Maryland, surrounded by the Patuxant, the Potomac and the Bay. We definately went crabbing a lot when I was younger. The secret to steaming your crabs is beer and Old Bay... no one knows that. Haha! But the main problem is that crabs are becoming rare, so usually they are expensive, females, and/ or small. (Not sexist, but males have more meat).
We'll teach all you out-of-towners about good seafood. Suggestions: Rock Fish, trout, oysters and Blue crabs. I hate fish, but shellfish is yummy... especially crabs!
Of course, we are also about 30 minutes from DC, so if you haven't seen the nations capitol... or if you haven't gotten the chance to moon the White House... here's your chance! Baltimore is also about 30 minutes away, the inner harbor is the place to be. Clarinets can be fun for so long, then you need to get a drink or go out to eat. :-D
Hey Dave, I was hoping that I could get my clarinet choir that was still in the process of forming to play at clarinetfest. I guess you have to audition? I don't know much about it, but I know who is organizing Clarinetfest. I should ask her about it. lol
Hope to see yall there!! YAY!
