THE GOLDEN RULES OF THE PERFECT SPECTATOR
- DO NOT ENTER OR LEAVE THE STANDS DURING A BAND’S PERFORMANCE. It distracts both the audience and the performers.
- DO NOT SAY ANYTHING UNKIND ABOUT A BAND’S PERFORMANCE. Their students practice just as hard as yours.
- RESPECT OTHER SPECTATORS AROUND YOU IN THE STANDS. As you would have them respect you.
- ALWAYS STAND, APPLAUD, AND CHEER AFTER EVERY SHOW. The stretch feels good, all bands love to be loved on.
- DO NOT TALK DURING THE SHOW. It may be your neighbor’s group.
- SILENCE YOUR CELL PHONE RINGTONES, OR TURN YOUR PHONE OFF. Also, silence or turn off any other electronics that could be a possible distraction to the performers and performance.
