JE WIND BAND BLUE WIND BAND During the month of August, Northside's Blue Wind Band begins practice on the new shows and music for the year. The band plays not only Mexican style music but also the latest hits of the year to “spiffin” things up a bit. Their perfor- mances are nice to watch during half - time, but the students of Northside really enjoy them when they are at the afternoon pep rallies. At the pep rallies, the band members can loosen up and just enjoy. During the concert season, the band puts on a Christmas concert and also does a concert in the spring. The band did exceptionally well at the 1988-89 Festival. The Blue Wind Band received straight supuriors at festival this year by earning all superior ratings. In the beginning the tension was high, but in the end everyone could relax with a smile. The band had to work hard concert season, but it was well worth it. To celebrate a job well done, they had cake and punch during a practice. The band is under the direction of Jim Langly, a Northside graduate. Mr. Langly attended the University of Georgia where he was a member of the Red Coat Marching Band and the Jazz Band. He has been at Northside for two years now. The following are members of the band: (top row) Nketra Carner; Chis Phillips; Ricky Nash; (second row) Kristie White; Leslie Owens; John Patrick; Narika Wyatt; Clint Lowe; Steve Varnadoe; Johnny Thomas; Nicole Powell; Carlos Anderson; Rob Dodson; Demetria Harris; Heather Nolan; (third row) Sharon Holcomb; Lechell Pitts; Mi- chelle Smith; Tracey Self; Deborah Michael; Carl Dammann; Lloyd McDonald; Mickey Copeland; Matt Ostrouder; Sharon Calhoun; Amy Parton; Lori Cook; (fourth row) Gwen Davis; Rhonda Taylor; Liz Gallardo; Ruth Marie Bieber; Dawayne Snyder, Brian Kiser; Wendy Spencer; Ty Long; Erik Carter; Roger Blizzard; Ronnie Hevican; Jeri Lea During 2 few of the football games, the band had to break out the old raincoat 82 Blue Wind Band Walker; Tonya Boslie; (fifth row) Dana Woods; Jennifer Harrell; Andrea Smith; Dee Dee Holley: Paige Haggard; Tonya Cartwright; Valerie Burnett, Julie Sullivon, P.J.
