Episode VI: Return of College

Week 22.10.09 - 23.10.09

First Study Rant: First study this week was fustrating at best. I had worked hard all week to create my solo verisons of ''Im a Loser'' and ''Back in the USSR''. I performed them, granted not as good as i would have hoped, but they were completely ignored. I asked for areas of improvement and he just played to himself, teaching me nothing. First Study is a class in which i would happily go without!

The Rest of the Week: We began a new piece in Session Skills which was fun to play at first! Being only 3 chords all the way through, it got a bit weary! In digital audio, all of our stuff got wiped form the desktop, so i had to start again! Was well gutted as i loved that tune that i'd created! This week saw us taking the Music Theory exam. I thought that it went well, it was easier than i first anticipated. I found that ''clapping'' rhythms realy hard so that is definalty an area in which i need to improve. In graded unit, we got together in our ''job groups'' and discussed the SWOT analysis and possible questions in the interview.

Outside of College: My musical career outside of college is going slower than i would like! Im really excited to be able to jam with greensmith and to hopefully get a recording of one of the songs that i wrote! I hope that with a recording, it will be alot easier to find a drummer. I am making some posters to put round college to advertise. Im hoping to find someone from the college who is as musically minded as i am, as the last drummer i had was not so musically driven! I just want to be gigging in a band again. It is what i love!
