Mustang Sally
Mustang Sally plays to family and friends at Korah on Dec. 8, 2009.Mustang Sally is back at it for the 2009-2010 school year. Check out what they have been up to! The past 3 months have been a blur to the members of Mustang Sally. On September 26 the group performed their first gig of the year after only having 5 practices. They delivered an outstanding gig to RBC regional meeting at Windsor Park that had them begging for more.
Mustang Sally is again promoting Character Education throughout the Algoma District School Board with pride. The group performed their very first elementary school gig of the year on October 30th to a “rockin” crowd at Pinewood PS. They were able to record their original song “Character Ed” for the ADSB Character CD that will be release in the new year.The first two months of rehearsals for the band were very busy with extra practices scheduled to prepare for the group's performances at the National Character Education Conference that was held in Huntsville Ontario at the Deerhurst Resort November 1, 2 and 3rd. The group performed two 20 minutes sets to students from around the country. The group also performed 2 night sets for the adults attending the conference. Mustang Sally left a great impression on both the students and the adults that were at the conference. They also had an opportunity to have their picture taken with David Suzuki at a book signing!Mustang Sally performed its second character education gig on November 13th at CASS, where the audience was both elementary students and high school students. The audience rocked out to a set filled with rock and pop songs such as Dear Mr. President, Angel, Walkin on Sunshine, Dawn of a New Day, We Will Rock You, Who Are You, Who Knew, What's Going On, I Want You Back, Magic, One, Sweet Home Alabama and many more. That night they also went to the Great Northern Conference Center and performed for Mr. Caruso at their hockey fundraiser. What a busy day full of music!On November 20th the band played in Korah’s auditorium which was filled to capacity with its feeder school students. The audience joined in singing many of the bands songs and also danced along. The electricity in the room was magical! The band inspired many elementary students to come to Korah in the future and get involved in high school life. Morgan Steele performed “Video Killed the Radio Star” for the first time, and the audience loved it.The band performed on November 30th at the Speak Easy at Algoma University to a crowd of students that were attending the Sault Ste Marie Innovation Centre's Youth Entrepreneurship Workshop.
Mustang Sally believes it is important to get involved in community events and give back whenever they can.And.. don't forget... MUSTANG SALLY'S GREAT BIG GIG is April 9, 2010 at the Great Northern Conference Center. You must be 19+ to enter, but the tickets make excellent stocking stuffers for the music lovers in your life. Tickets are $10 and are available from any band member or the main office!
