May the Force Be With You

What an intense week of rehearsal it has been. Our early summer set is starting to take shape and it is a ton of fun. I still get chills when I sing some of the Hyannis Sound standards knowing that I'm not in the audience this summer, I'm in the group. I have to admit too that singing with the guys will most definitely push your musical ability to the next level as well. I can't wait to see what it's like to go back to Plymouth for the first time this summer and sing for my hometown friends and family.

Yesterday started out like most rehearsal days but ended quite different. We practiced all day and then got ready for a barbecue we were having to meet all of our new neighbors. Some prepared by lighting the grill and prepping the backyard. Others found that defeating Imperial Forces and using Jedi techniques to bring balance to the force were what they needed to get ready for the cook out. Others decided that hitting a grand slam over the green monster was a viable option.


Matty and Tim are shown fighting Darth Vader, and Doug and Andy are shown playing a friendly game of MVP Baseball. That reminds me, we watched 6 Star Wars Movies in 6 Days. But don't think for a second that just because we have 2 TV's simultaneously playing video games and watched all of the Star Wars Movies in a row that we are...Gasp...geeks. We're still cool.

But beyond nerdiness...the cook out was a lot of fun. We have such a neat neighborhood, I really like where we live. I cooked everything on the grill and word on the street is that I make a really good cheeseburger. I don't remember what street it was though. We sang some tunes for the neighbors and called it a night with more video games.

This weekend promises to be a great one. We have a few gigs including our first public performance on Saturday night in Woods Hole at Illumination Weekend. We are singing at 8:15pm in Lillie Auditorium. Also, this is the weekend that us new guys get to meet a bunch of the Hyannis Sound Alumni, so that should be exciting.

But until then, it is time to get my groove on, afternoon rehearsal style.
