Foreign ExchangeThis might sound like a really innapropriate topic to bring up, but here goes. My band director is really keen on getting my band to america. He feels it will do us good to compare musical outlooks and see the similarities and differences to playing in england, so at the moment we're looking to establish a link and a friendship with an american high school to arrange a visit between the schools. If any of you think that your school would be good for us to visit, and particulary if your school really support your music department, i was wondering if perhaps you could leave your schools contact details or website so that we could look into it, it would be extremely helpful only if your interested though! Thank you!
