The order has been placed DG ... LOL !!!
morning!
I just got back from a panel discussion (I was one of the panelists) on marketing consumer electronics to women... now it's time to play!
It's funny you brought up piano lessons - I spent some time yesterday searching for a sheet music series that I loved when I was taking piano lessons. It was an 'easy play' version of alot of Bacharach, and I remember learing the Love Theme to Romeo & Juliet from it. I want to say it had something to do with Brimhall, but my search of that site came up empty. (Of course, the fact that it was 100 years ago could have something to do with it...)
What other musical instruments did everyone play?
I did a stint with the violin, then switched to the string bass (I thought it was cool to play both classical and jazz), and the guitar (still play)...and the recorder. In the early 70's everyone played the recorder, didn't they?? Mainly my instrument was (still is) 'voice'.
Same here voice guitar and recorder

NYadgal - very brief affair with the clarinet. As a pianist, I found it annoying to have to play with other people, so it was quickly abandoned But with that in mind, how frightening were the band instructors? My god, you'ld think they were planning for a battle invasion the way they drilled their 'troops'!
Speaking of school ... tree-hugging senior photo's
ahh memories.
Had a recorder class in college.
I had a guitar too, never learned to play except..C'mon everyone..."Smoke on the Water"...that song was like playing "Heart & Soul" on the piano. LOL !!!
Played the recorder and still play guitar. "Classical Gas" anyone?
The marching band in my HS was intense. Was very glad I didn't participate (other than cheering them on the year they marched in the Macy's Thanksgiving parade...in the rain...)
LOL, BB - I played that, too!! My first guitar song was Puff the Magic Dragon.
OMG - Senior photos. My senior photo is such a nightmare!
Did any of you have senior quotes in your yearbook?
Mine was a quote/lyrics from Pippin. (And not Corner of the Sky!)
Cheering ... I was the first male cheerleader at my high school. Mostly had to lift and throw!

Wow - 'Classical Gas' - and 'A Fifth of Beethoven' - we had a news station that used 'Classical Gas' as their theme song.
And weren't alot of those tree-hugging photos done in VERY soft focus?
Signing yearbooks!
can you say schmaltz??
Morning Oldies but goodies
The recorder, the violin......ahhhh.....good times good times.
Remember how much of a popularity contest it was to see who could get the most signatures in their yearbooks???

The poster of the cat hanging from the bar, was the expression Hang In There?

Someday you're ship will come in and you'll be at the airport.
Good Luck in HS.
I am laughing out loud at those, boobs!!
I may have to dig my yearbook out when I get home later tonight (theatre tickets - yeah!) and re-read all the "witty" comments that my friends came up with!
Friends 4 Ever!
I'll never forget what my Mom wrote in my Grammar school book..."If anyone Loves you more than me, let them sign their name below mine" and she signed Mommy at the very bottom of the page...*eyes swell up*
Awwwwwww, Boobs - MY eyes just welled up!!!
