During lunch times, the band and I reheared in the studio room. This is because we never had anough time in class because it took us ages to set up and tune the guitar etc...
the extra rehearsals helped!

my activity is music wendsday 14th december 2010
Today we performed!
Firstly we practised for 25 minuetes in our seporate rooms. I sang all the way through for the first time.....with a microphone. It kept on sqeaking but Ms told me it was because i was to near the amp. We cut the end of the song for we had not rehearesed it.
We then set up for the performance. We carried the amps and instrumnents across the rooms- they were really heavy.
I was really cold and I was shivering, which made me more nervous. We were cramed in the corner.......I was really scared! We began and I listened to the intro to begin. however maddy the guitarist fogot to play a short solo, so i diddnt know when to come in. Thankfully when I randomly came in, the other band members slowed down so i could catch up. Im really grateful for that, otherwise it would have been a disaster. I was shakey to start with....but when I got into the chorus, I got better.
The performance diddnt go as well as in rehearsals but never mind. =D

my activity is music
Today, I will be practicing with the band.
We took a long time setting up. Getting all the amps, microphone, leads, instruments etc... Then the band and I managed to play further than we usually get up to. (past the intro) !!!! I sang all the way to the chorus with a microphone for the first time. I sounded much louder and my voice sounded deaper.
However the keyboard players couldnt keep up. We'll have to practice playing in time together.
It was another fun lesson.!!!

my activity is drama
We diddnt have a teacher today so we watched a really good horror film called 'The others' instead. It was really fun.
my activity is drama
Today we practised acting like little children.
Flora and me found it really funny when we were practising because it brought back our childish characteristics. however we diddnt have time to perform.

my lesson is music
Today, I practised with my band.
My band and I went into a room to rehearse 'supermassive black hole' by muse. We spent most of the time concentrating on the keyboard parts. Then, we experimented with the drum-kit. Deciding what tempo it should be played at and what rythum. We agreed to make it a fast tempo in the end. When we played all the instruments together, it diddnt work! So we practised the intro for the whole lesson, then at lunch we practised more. The keyboards volume was louder when Flora and Maryam played together at the same time. I didnt sing this lesson because it would have probly made the rehearsal even more confusing. Instead i helped the other members of the band.
It's fun rehearsing in a band because it's all our independent work. It feels more rewarding when it goes right.
