Amber's P.O.V.

Wow…I haven't done one of these in a while. I wonder if it's really relevant to be doing these now that I've graduated…? I guess it doesn't really matter. There's still a lot more that happened at band camp that we haven't written about yet.

Anyway, let's do this.

So we're at this New Orleans band trip that we had this year. (09) Which was awesome by the way. On the very last day of the trip we go to this jazz club. It was really fancy like you had to dress up and mind your manners type deal. The only thing not formal about it was that when they played the music you could stand up from where you're sitting and dance.

We'll they played a few songs and then this drunk guy comes over to the table and says, "Hey, where are you guys from?"

"Kentucky."

"Oh! I'm a big Cats fan! C-A-T-S cats! Cats!! Cats!!!"

Okay, this guy is totally weird…

"Aw, c'mon people C-A-T-S Cats! Cats!! Cats!!"

"C-A-T-S Cats! Cats!! Cats!!!"

That gotta few people going. He did this for the next few tables too. This guy definitely has had too much to drink.

Then this lady get up on the stage, she must've been hammered or something cuz the next thing we knew she was slurring her words through the mike. I guess she was welcoming the people in the restaurant/bar cause she said our group name and she went on to congratulate the wedding anniversary of this one couple and a birthday.

And she's the manager of this place? Geez, lady. I don't even know what the hell your saying!

The Jazz Band then played a jazz rendition of My Old Kentucky Home, which was kinda cool. I always liked that song.

For the ramparts we wrought, we're so gallantly strimming…Uh, Damn, wrong song. I don't know, that song just popped up in my mind.

Dang it! Now I can't remember how My Old Kentucky Home goes! The National Anthem is stuck in my head!!

A few minutes later, we got our food and ate and then the whole gingivitis thing happened AND THEN…

Chech and Chong.

Funniest pair of men you'll ever see. And they can dance. If ya know what I mean :P Okay so by this point in the evening, no one so far has gotten up and danced. I guess we're just a shy bunch of people.

First of all, it was Chong who went up and started dancing by himself. After a while, this sort of slow song started playing. He then, all comical like, extended his hand to his best friend Chech. You should know that them two have this bromance kind of thing going on and so everyone started laughing when he did it. Chech looked all embarrassed and kept mouthing "No" and shaking his head. He kinda blushed too. Then Chong grabbed his heart and looked at him like he was hurt and gave him the puppy dog eyes.

Finally, Chech relented and started to dance with him. It was soo funny cause they aren't like that at all! They were just making fun.

This got everyone going. Sarah and Diana started doing the Charleston and other same sex partners started to dance too. Another slow song started to play and then my friend Reid came over and said,

"How about we be the first straight couple out there?" He said something like this, I can't remember his exact words.

"Sure." And I grabbed his hand and we headed out there and slow danced. I had my hand on his shoulder and the other in his hand. (You guys can imagine for yourselves what that looks like, I'm pretty sure most of you have already danced like that before.)

Then soon everyone started dancing and then a fast song came on and we all started to do a congo line. It was all very much fun.

It's too bad Erin didn't get to go. You would have had so much fun! I'd say that this trip is almost on par with the Disneyland trip that we took two years ago. Well, maybe not as equal as it but still pretty great. It was the first time I had went to Disneyland, and I doubt…I'd ever get the chance again.
