I feel like I owe a very big apology to a lot of you.. I apologize for: -ranting irrationally and impulsively to people who didn't want to hear it..... - forcing myself upon people who didn't want to hear it... - speaking badly or fallaciously about specific individuals. - arrogance and overconfidence. - isolating my friends and asking them to take sides. I am an idiot sometimes..and I understand if this has caused many of you to think less of me..I have a lot of problems guys..... and I hope you can forgive me. And just for the record: I am NOT upset with the results of the audition ... and I am very happy for and with Janae and Karee and I believe them both to be wonderful people as well as wonderful players. What I am upset about was how the auditions were conducted. But....there's nothing I can do about it.... I do admit that I did speak with Mr. Anders.... but it was simply to get an explanation to as why we don't have blind auditions... it WAS not to complain about the results. And I really hope that I got that across to him. Though I fear he may have had to deal with the same thing you all did. Anyway...I'm going to let this die now!! so.lets have a great year in band together. --sarah |
