And so it begins...

Yes ladies and gents, this week is the infamous 2005 Midwest Music Educator's Convention... and BCM will once again be there. Newman has already arrived in town -- I picked him up at the El train earlier and right now he's overseeing the CYSO's rehearsal of Metropolitan, which they will be performing later this week. Steve arrives tomorrow, as well as our very special guest this year, Mr. Daniel Montoya (Montoya is going to be helping us out at the BCM booth this year, and we're very glad to have him with us!). And Eric arrives on Wednesday, just in time for the festivities. We've got a whole new setup for our booth, we've got a new banner, and we've upgraded our CD players to iPods, for everyone's listening enjoyment. I'll keep you posted on the developments as they happen...
