rehersals week 2

So last week everyone performed to each other and chose 6 performers to perform for this fridays performance at the spot in the college, the 6 performers we picked are: demver doing his violin piece an instrumental from pirates of the carribean, joe doing his original song on guitar, la-shaun doing his original rap but covering a song and having joe to sing the chorus for him and play guitar for him, immanuel doing his original song 'to number one' with a backing track, caitllyn doing her original song on piano and harry doing his original song on guitar. For this fridays performance at the spot to be successful we had to get into groups and every group had a job to do towards the performance for example: filmers, organisers, equipment managers, advatisers etc. I was put in the filmers group, for all of this week me and my group had to film the 6 performers rehersing, and film the actual performance. The performance went really well and the audience really enjoyed the performances, i think we all did a good job to make it successful.

This week we also chose 2 good songs: 'i feel good' by James Brown and 'read all about it' by Professor Green ft Emeli Sande, we got put in to two groups one group had to work on 'I feel good' and the second group had to work on 'Read all about it', in the two groups every person got a different job to do example: who plays guitar, bass, piano, who is going to sing etc.. i got put in the group for 'I feel good' i really like this song it is so catchy, fun to sing and a good old tune. It was easy to work on because most people know the song very well. There was a few errors with timing, singing was a little off, harmonies went off, so hopefully next week we can correct those errors and make the song sound really good. I feel like i couldve sang better and feel the song more, because i feel that i didnt put enough effort and felt like i couldve performed much better in able to make the song stronger, because i believe if everyone in the group gives a lot of effort the better and stronger the song will sound.
Although i think the band played very well and did a good job in working with the singers.

This week i had to miss the days monday and wednesday due to jewish new years, a very important festival and i could not come in but i cought up on friday with the songs, learning them now throughout the weekend, so next monday i will be up to date.
