THE JOY OF SOUND PART IV

Today we ran the entire show from start to finish and then performed the piece to a year 10 class. This was a really definitive time for us as it allowed us to trial new ideas and to block a running order for the entire show. Some of the feedback we received was really positive. We were told that our energy was exciting and fresh and the way we presented our ideas was unique. However, in this dry run we lacked confidence in what we were performing. We knew the running order, but there was little time to piece together transitions so the entire performance was very shaky. But yet again it was dry run. I was very disappointed with how my guitar playing was. I ruined the solo. It went horribly wrong, but I tried to look like less of a tit. Luckily, I don't think the audience noticed. One thing I now understand is that we can develop a whole play just from messing around in a sacred circle exercise.
