These are the names of the musical bands I have sung in... It is always a great experience to sing with a band for a group of audience... There were times when we have performed brilliantly well to garner appreciation and there were instances of the band being booed down too.
Once when I sang the covers for a John Denver song,"Country roads" in college, I had been the victim of a tomato too. But I was never ever pelted with a stone or a rock. The genre "Rock music" came into evolution after a british musical band was pelted with rocks by an enraged mob.
Everyone would remember their first love. The first love would be in some part of everypne's hearts. I do remember the first time I performed a song on stage.I was 8 years old then. I had a big Givson guitar which was as tall as me.I had an uncle who accompanied me with the bass and another uncle played the drums for me.It was a romantic song and the name of the song is "Oh Judy". Recently I found an old audio-cassette-tape in the old rack at home and when I played it on the tape recorder, I was so glad to hear that same old song.I immediately converted it into a media file and uploaded it in youtube. Ladies and gentlemen! I take this time to present to you, my first ever on-stage-rockstaaaaa-wannabe performance. Check this video-Chronicwriter
me the first

ReplyDeleteAnd about being booed and cheered, isn't life but an endless cheer of applause and opprobrium?
'If' - one of my favourite poems and that of some very special ppl I know - sums that up. I just hope people read beyond just 'to meet with triumph and disaster and treat the impostors just the same! though.
Sorry for the detour. Cheers:)
:)...this reminds me of my childhood.As a kid i was a big chatter box and would blabber all sort of nonsense...and my dad used to record those conversation pieces.In the process of multiple job transfers,,,we lost those audio cassetes:)...n this one just makes me feel more ...i wish i had it:)..i'd have flaunted it too:D
