week 3

Monday

Last Friday our teacher Charlie told us that we were going to do two more cover songs and that songs were 'Heart shaped box' by Nirvana and 'Ordinary people' by John Legend.
On Monday he put us into different group and my group was doing ' Heart shaped box', I'm playing the electric guitar, Caitlyn is piano, we have six singers, Harry is playing bass and Jacob is on the drums.
After telling each of us what we were going to do, Charlie put us into different practicing rooms, so we could start playing the songs.
Charlie asked the singers to stay in another room so they could work on the harmonies and see who was going to sing verse one, verse to, middle eight, etc. In the room I was we are the instruments, so we were talking to each other to see what we were going to do and who was going to play what, but after we talk to each other the singers came back to the rooms I was and we started playing together adding the instruments and the singers.
In the end of the day we had most of the work done, we knew what to do, the singers knew what part they were singing, the drummer was in time, but we had to practice more to get everything right.

Wednesday

Last week we had to finish the colours, because today we had to perform to the other colour groups the song we've been working on. Our song were good but it wasn't the best one because we didn't have enough time to practice and we were kind lost with the chords.
In the end of the day Charlie had to pick the three best colours songs, because we were going to perform them for our upcoming performance.
