Sparks Emerge?
I gotta say, deciding to join Sparks for Laughter, my first and only band thus far, has been the best move I've done to enhance my musical side. It's the best step I've taken in music =D I've grown from a "I've-got-a-problem-hitting-the-footswitch-for-solos" guitarist to playing lead for Sweet Child O' Mine with a couple of blatant mistakes here and there with the band. I love this band.
I guess being in a band kinda makes you push yourself to finish what you did not play perfectly and that makes you grow into a better player/performer. Playing alone at home always allows you the choice to 'stop and start over' every time you hit a wrong note, which in a way, allows lil room for learning from errors. Trust me, I had a handful of errors with the band
I'm writing fresh from a preliminary round in Jin and Tony's church, City Harvest, where we're only allowed 2 minutes to perform (though they kinda gave us a lil less somehow, ah well). We didn't get to do our best because they cut us off at the final bits, but at least I think we're quite convincing with lil or no noticeable errors. Plus, from watching the other bands, I personally
Though it's just us 4 boys this time, it still was (very) fun :p Jin played quite a blistering solo; kicker of ass he is with that sexy white les paul studio model of his.
*Oh yes, sorry for the slow set-up, boys, my bad.
Shen's pick colour of choice, it brought me luck alright, no mistakes on those scary harmonics in the quiet verses >_<>piles of rubble times of trouble,Mother
speaking words of wisdom,
let it be"
*pictures to come from Michelle's camera soon*
UPDATE: We're in the semi finals! Semis were added as it seems there were quite a few good bands; it was meant to be from preliminaries -> finals, but, ah well =D SPARKS! ! ! YEAH!
