<p>i want it to be known that i am truly sorry if i offended anyone with the whole band company thing. i have many friends in band company, and i don't want them to think that i'm against them or what they do. the forum in question totally went down the wrong (and unintended) path. </p>
<p>kingspointer2010 brought up some good points and i will be sure to think more carefully about what i say next time. y'all have some great guys in your company, many of whom are in my section and help me out in many of my classes. </p>
<p>if you're in band and you read this and are hacked off at me, please forgive me and understand that i did not mean anything personal by what i said. </p>
<p>thanks guys</p>
