BlankThis is OT and not band or orchestra related and I apologize for it but one time many years ago at our church we were having a service and before it started we were talking about Christmas “balls” as someone called them instead of “ornaments” for the tree and someone asked if anyone had any they could donate to the church and one lady said, “I have no balls.” and another guy and I almost lost it. Okay I’m done.To send a message, msb-alumni@xxxxxxxxxxxxxI can’t remember anything about the orchestra that happened funny. You band members had all the fun.

I’m sure Mr. Chard got a little upset with a lot of us didn’t he? You have me rolling with laughter. Especially with the story about the can of nuts. Wow! That is too funny.Peggy Yats and Ld Ginger.

I remember once Richard Lavely & another guy who played the trombone rolled my base drum across the stage while the band was playing & of course when it came my time to play MR. Chard stopped the band & was very upset at me for missing my part. Another & my favorite was when Paul Art had sold MR. Chard a can of nuts for Scouts & interrupted band practice to tell him his nuts were on his desk. The whole percussion section got kicked out of band practice that day ummm don’t know why we were so well behaved lol.From: msb-alumni-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:msb-alumni-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of SteveSent: Wednesday, April 02, 2014 1:08 PM To: msb-alumni@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [msb-alumni] Welcome Bob Spear Hey, Bob, Glad to see you on this list.This is Steve Pollo from '72. I am retired as well from working in Labor Relations/Human Resources for Board of Water and Light.Lots of stories about band on the list in the past. I remember the time I think you grabbed the bass drum beater and swung and tried to hit Charlotte and hit the bass drum.Whackey Jack stopped the rehearsal and waited for somebody to confess. Nobody fessed up so after ten minutes he started the practice again.Politicians are like bananas, they enter congress green, turn yellow, and then they are rotten.Steve Lansing, Pure MI
