Come on people, where are all the comments and views on last weekends
nationals.  I'm so used to reading comments after contests about how YBS
were robbed (yawn!) that I'm having withdrawal symptoms.  Also, what do you
think of the test piece.

I'm sure most players didn't rate the piece when first rehearsing it,
including me, but by the end I  really liked it, and thought it was a good
choice.  I've never known a piece that has given bands so many problems
during the contest performance.  It was a real "test" piece.  Some players
from the big name bands even admitted (over a beer afterwards!) that their
performance nearly fell apart in more than one place.  That's how hard it
was.

Martin.
