So.. on the serious side of the house.

To all of those who did not get call, let me put this out there.  You heard folks say they tried out numerous times and didn't get the call until their 3rd or 4th time.  There are too many reason why they didn't get the call.  Could be they weren't ready, could be their base/work section really needed them for something, again could be SO MANY reasons.  What you have to focus on, and I know its hard because you want to TOUR so bad, but what you have to focus on is what you have gained from your first, second, third or tenth time at Worldwide.

We are all given a tool bag.  Take what tools you got from your experience and store them in your tool bag.  What to look for when you do a sound check?  What to look for when you are on stage and need more or less lighting?  How to conduct yourself as THE BEST of THE BEST.  I saw a lot of teams, doing things the 2nd day that they didn't do the first day of the contest.  Walking in line.  Women first. Men escorting the ladies.  Opening doors.  Basically, A lot of courtesy and respect.  Those are tools that only after 1 day of being in the enviornment of Air Force Entertainment and the Tops in Blue program you picked up.  Have you been using them since you got back?

Yes the end result of your hard work is to get a seat on that bus!  But don't miss all of the other benefits you receieved in those 11 days.

If you got the call... congrats.

If you didn't... let me lay this on you.

A gentlemen tried out for the 2001 WWTC.  Didn't get the call he wanted.  Instead got selected to help out administratively with the team.   Didn't get to reherse.  Didn't get the cool jump suits, T-Shrits, or those fabulous dance shoes.  We did 3 months of rehersals.  Less than 2 weeks before we left for our first show.. HE WAS ANNOUNCED as part of Tops in Blue 2001-The Magic of Music.   He learned the routines by sitting and watching and practicining in the wings, in the office, when no one was looking. He sat with the vocal coach during lunch and her off times and learned parts thinking he was just fooling around.  But folks are always looking-watching.  He took the tools he learned from WW which was to learn everything you can, keep sharpening your skills, and ALWAYS ALWAYS BE READY.

For those that didn't the call... ALWAY - ALWAYS - BE READY.

In the words of Chris Rock... "YOU NEVA KNOW!"  Ain't that right Spencer!

Peace & Laughter
Walt
