I have spent the last four years as band mom, RTRbecca. I thought I was done, but I guess one more time.

Yesterday I watched the video of the 12/31/14 PIR just so I would know what is going on when we go to our SR's PIR on the 6th of Feb. It looked like the band left the Hall just before the Liberty Call was issued. I'm guessing to put away the instruments. Do they immediately come back into the Hall?
Does anyone have a suggestion how to meet up with a Sailor from the band? All the families seem to be going on to the floor to find their Sailor. I'm thinking it would be easier to tell my Sailor we will stay in the bleachers and he should come there to find us (for example near the podium). I would think it is very difficult to find a Sailor on the floor if their division is not stationary.
I want to make sure we don't waste a minute with our Sailor!
Thanks for your help.
