Comments There is a secret. Playing in this band isn't about being the best in Canada. It's about playing with others who have as much passion for music as you do. Remember that Latez!

Comments Good work on the page. One suggestion - if you are going to show a photo of Mr. Forde, make it a candid one, before he has a chance to get to the Grecian Formula. Keep at it Jimmy, nice to see the kids have a real pro helping them avoid the pitfalls along the way.

Comments This is a great idea. It is helpful having the list of names posted on my board to see who is returning and who is new. I'm looking forward to a great week! Is anyone else planning on a few extra days in B.C. after NYB? Let me know if you have such plans.

Comments Hi guys! I hope you have fun at NYB this year. I auditioned, but didn't make it. Maybe next year. If any of you know Bill Bayer ( tuba), I go to school with him. He rocks. Make sure to tease him about something for me when you get to Vancouver. It doesn't matter what. This is a great site!

Comments This page is great! Much faster, but at the same time more artistic than last years. One sugguestion to Mr. Forde and Mr. Herriot: "Tubby the Tuba" (if there's an arrangement without strings)!

Comments Matthew: What an outstanding job you have done on this new NYB Web site, it is truly marvellous! Thanks to Geoff Shoesmith also for helping out and a big vote of gratitude to Joe Muise of St. Francis Xavier University in Antoginish, Nova Scotia for being our "Web Master" for the past 3 years. I'm so much looking foward to NYB '98 in Vancouver. Along with the 21 musicians returning from NYB '97 we will have at least 39 new musicians joining our alumni. On behalf of the Canadian Band Association, the entire NYB Committee: Sheryl Bowhay, Ardith Haley, Allan Hicks, Larry Pearen, our Music Director, Bobby Herriot and our guest Tuba Soloist, John Griffiths I take great pride in stating that each of you is in for one of the most exciting and satisfying musical experiences of your lifetime. I can hardly wait! Jim Forde, Manager, NYB '98 Please email with any questions you may have on this, or future National Youth Band projects.
