Monday Practice!

We will have practice on Monday, May 4th in preparation for the Spring Concert. It will be after school until 5:00pm in the Gym at Talladega High School.

Uniform fitting!

Those of you that made the DEGA DARLINS 2009 line for the fall will have your first uniform fitting on May 4, 2009. Mrs. Bonnie will come during school around 12:30. Mr. McDaniel will call you to the bandroom from class. (this is not for Addition; your fitting will be at a later time.)

What a Gig!

On April 23, 2009, the Talladega High School Jazz Band was invited to perform for the International Motorsports Hall of Fame ceremonies. With great preparation, lots of anticipation and much excitement the group of young musicians took on this adventure with great enthusiasm. Much is to be said about the musical presentation and outstanding representation of the Talladega City Schools from this group of young people; it was truly outstanding.

A special thanks to Mr. and Mrs. Smith for their help providing dinner for the group, as well as Mrs. Rasco. Also to Dr. Frank Buck for his attendance and support at this event. It is wonderful to have such great support from parents and administrators in the Talladega City School System.

Audition clinic is coming up next week; April 6th - 10th, 2009.

Be sure that you have cleared all debts at school so that you may audition.

Also, be sure that you read the handout/rules very carefully. Some things may have changed since the last time you looked at it.

Visit www.degaband.com for a detailed schedule of clinic week.

See you then; Bring a friend!

Group photos!

Group photos taken by Bateman photography are now online. You can view them by going to www.photoreflect.com and doing a search or click here. Be sure to click the arrow so that you can view both pictures of the group. Also, you can scroll around and see pictures from each group that performed over the two days.

There are several purchase options available. I suggest the digital file. If you order this, they email it to you within a few weeks and then you have it on your computer from then on. The cost is under $5.00.

Enjoy!
