ARGGHHHHH I SCREWED UPPPP!!!!
Today was viva la music auditions. As you all can see, it didnt go that smoothly. I EPIC FAILED!!! BADLY!!! Gaahhh...so many screwy things happened. Cant really blame the ava peeps either.
I shall now list out what failed.
Fail one, didnt place a carpet under the drum, so the bass drum and toms were free to move as they please when i stepped on the bass. As a visual aid, picture this. The drums in front of me was so far away that i had to full stretch to hit it.
Fail two, couldnt hear the other instruments (including singer barrie), so had to play by feeling. Didnt get the ava to up the volume either...
Fail three, messed up my beat in the beginning...that, im sure, was damn obvious
Fail four, since i couldnt hear anything at all, i ended the song too early. Obviously my "feeling" aint that great.
Fail five, i didnt feel like i was nervous...till the drums walked away, like my GP essay paper.
ARGGHHHH....I sucked, dont try to tell me otherwise, cause i didnt meet my own expectations.
In any case, cant turn back the clock now, now can i. Best to look forward.
Anyway, at least i learnt what to look out for if i ever bring myself to play in public ever again... (looking on the bright side).
Well it was a fun experience in all. Wouldnt say i did my best but...sometimes stuff happens. Just gotta make sure it doesnt happen ever again...
On a side note, thanks everyone who came to support me (be it if you actually knew i was going to be there or not) on my first band group performance. It really means alot. If you didnt come, its fine too, sorta gives me less pressure if i play in front of an unknown audience. If i disappointed you, im sorry. If you thought it was ok/great, then it was a pleasure to play for you.
*sigh* suuuuper emo post i know...but tomorrow is a new day.
ARGHHHH....seriously...
