Carbondale, IL

One of our two Illinois stops this tour was in Carbondale. It was nice to play at a university and with a packed house! The hall was very pretty too. Was also great to play again after a day off. We did the Finale from Barnes Symphony No. 3. 


We rotate different marches each night, and it is kind of fun to get to know these classics intimately. This night was Fairest of the Fair, one of my favorites. I can't wait until I'm an old-timer and know every march on the face of the planet, but for now they are still challenging and fun. 

 

So perhaps the most unique moment of the night was a post-concert trip to Buffalo Wild Wings where we happened to run into the dubious celebrity presence of none other than Ron Jeremy....
