My second big assignment yesterday was the final Music at McClellan. For the past 5 summers, the Alabama Symphony Orchestra holds a series of concerts through May and June at Longleaf Park which is on the site of the former Fort McClellan which was decommissioned about 10 years ago.
Lots of people come, bring food and the whatnot, but the final performance every year always draws a larger crowd due to the canons they bring in when they pay The 1812 Overture.
