Blog 10 During and after the concert

The first concert went pretty well.  The first group to go on was jazz band and they played really good.  The group I was in was next to go on.  The two combined periods had about 90 people.  It sounds a lot different in the band room with half the people.  During the show,  while we were playing my instrument,  the first valve got stuck.  The entire time we were on I was trying to fix the the valve.  The valve guide to guide it down was chipped of a little bit and the valve could spin.  I still tried to play what ever I could.  There are multiple combinations for many notes but some notes can't have any buttons valves pressed down.  It was hard trying to play because sometimes I'll forget that I can't play then I would play the wrong note.  After our group was done the next group was going on.  I share an instrument with someone else and they didn't know about the valve getting stuck.  I'm sure when she was playing it the valve got stuck and she tried to fix it.  Overall it was a good show all the groups played well.
