Hey Guys...
Last weekend my band competed at Baycourt in Tauranga. We didn't come anywhere but we had fun. Last minute we found out that the screw on the bass guitar fell out (the screw where you plug the lead in that is) so yeah we were stuffed. Luckily the meanest band that was there, Falling Set's Fire from Trident, let me use their bass guitar. The saying, you must get used to your guitar before you perform, certaintly is right. I stuffed up a bit because the strings were too thin but oh well at least I didn't have to do air bass...thanx guys.
The sound quality of our performance was totaly crap. I went to turn up the bass but the stupid sound man turned it back down. Regan, the drummer, couldn't even hear me! Gosh. But that's not as bad as the lighting. Sam, the lighting man, told me that the lighting was basic compared to the other bands. How unfair is that? They so didn't want little ol' Opotiki getting good marks did they? Oh well ce la vie! I had fun and so did the rest of us except for Cameron...he looked soo upset. Cameron, if you're reading this...you rock man and yeah! Even when you make mistakes, it still sounds cool so don't go hating on your self man.
In the mosh pit, we had a few supporters, you guys roc
k man and you know who you are!, which was pretty cool. There were so many good bands man. I couldn't believe the quality of their performances lol. There was this really kool band who tried to break a guitar but all they did was put a hole in it. Hahahahahaahahahahahahadeeedaaaa. I'm sure our guitar breaking skills are way better! Hehehehehehehehehehehe the SANTANIC CANNIBALS were sooo funny...in a good way! All I could hear were moans and groans from the audience about how heavy their metal is...do you get it? First place was Fletcher, second place was The Escape and third place was FALLING SETS FIRE!!! The people's choice award was to Random but I didn't think that they should have gotten that. They were cool and all but there were better bands coz both of their songs sounded too much the same.
The band that performed last...Trigger Theory I think...were sooooooooooooo kewl. I can't wait till their EP comes out! That drummer guy was sooooo hott. He was the greatest drummer that I have ever seen, next to Regan ya'll. He can bang my drums any day hehehehehehe. Sorry bout that...my bad. We have practise this avo and I can't wait. Hopefully Regan turns up coz she aint at school. If you want to check out our profile on the set have a gawk yuh.
Well ta ta till tomorrow
