See You Next Wednesday ft. ChianoSky at The Assembly

I picked up my friend, Erin, then my uncle took us through to "The Assembly" club. When we arrived, the queue to buy tickets was very long, but Erin and I went right to the front of the queue as I received an email a couple hours earlier from the Glamour magazine that told me I've won tickets to go to Assembly, plus I also got a bar tab and ChianoSky's album "Hungry". I thank Glamour magazine for the tickets, bar tab and ChianoSky's album.

I went in Assembly and it was a very nice club as I've never been in Assembly before. There were very comfy couches, some games like pool and there was a bar. We bumped into Deon Van Zyl who has worked with Jax Panik and we introduced ourselves. Deon is one of the photographer's for The Assembly club. When Erin and I were at the bar, we bought a "Red Bull" and we went to go sit on one of the comfy couches and chilled for a bit, chatting to each other. It was nearly 11pm, then Erin and I went to go to stand in front of the stage.

Then it was time for ChianoSky's performance, that was unbelievably amazing! To be honest, I have never seen ChianoSky perform live before. This was the first time ChianoSky has performed live in Cape Town, so I couldn't miss this event for the world.

ChianoSky started off her performance with the song "Home Sweet Home", which every single person in the club was dancing to the wonderful music. ChianoSky's music is really sexy, playful and totally 100% original. She writes her own music and has a super talented voice. Many of the people from the crowd held out their hands, took pictures, screaming with cheer and having a good time rocking it out with ChianoSky.

After a few sings, ChianoSky performed the song "Act like a man", she sat on a chair and started singing, it was so beautiful, my mind was blown away by her absolutely amazing voice. "Act like a man" is a very catchy song, very lovely and the lyrics is simply lovely!
ChianoSky also sang "Sick Sick", which to me, is a very jazzy/pop song. It's a lovely love song, it is also her debut single which was released last year (2011). ChianoSky ended off her performance with the song "Sick Sick" remix, which every single person danced to. Many of the people jumped around and boogeyed to this amazing remix of "Sick Sick", it was really a good song! The response, in my opinion towards ChianoSky's performance, was everything of what I had expected. Everyone was having a great time, dancing to the music and listening to ChianoSky's beautiful voice!

After ChianoSky's performance, we were all allowed to meet her, take pictures with her and talk to her for a bit. While we were waiting, I bumped into Kyle Lewis and Ali Wacher from "Dirty Soul Productions" and we had chatted for a bit. I was surprised that they knew who I was. ChianoSky came out and she hugged me hello. She asked me and Erin to wait for a bit as we were all going to go backstage and chat...

When we were backstage, I was going on about how absolutely amazing ChianoSky's performance was, it was really a fantastic performance! I was completely blown away by her performance. Erin was also saying how much she has enjoyed ChianoSky's performance, Erin was just smiling and very happy as this was her very first time going to a club. I have gone to a few other clubs before, but this has been the best performance I have ever seen at a club in my whole life! Erin an I got our ChianoSky "Hungry" album and poster's signed, we chatted for a bit, saying how incredibly talented she is. Erin was saying how absolutely gorgeous she is. ChianoSky is super friendly, we were all chatting about how Erin and I found out about her, her debut single "Sick Sick" was always playing one radio whenever I was walking home from my bus stop and we also got some pictures with ChianoSky.

We chatted for quite a while, talking about how much Erin and I really enjoyed her performance. After we chatted, we headed on down back to the main dance floor, I hugged her and we all said our goodbye's. Erin and I still cannot believe that all of this happened, it was truly amazing!

One of ChianoSky's inspirations comes from Amy Winehouse, and let me just say that Amy Winehouse still lives in ChianoSky. I don't know if it is just me, but whenever I hear Amy Winehouse song, I always think of ChianoSky's music and that both music genre's sound similar, which is fantastic! I guarantee you that you will be hearing about ChianoSky and her music. With a voice like hers, there is no way that her music will not go unnoticed. ChianoSky music is very lovely and meaningful.

I recommend everyone who is into jazz/pop music and who loved Amy Winehouse's music, should purchase ChianoSky's album "Hungry". There is amazing music that everyone will enjoy, I guarantee you, you will enjoy her album very much. I love all of ChianoSky's songs, but my favourite's I am listening to mostly is: "Home Sweet Home", "Walking Away", "Act like a man", "Believe" and "Sick Sick". The one song that I think is a song every single person will love is "Live out loud (LOL)", there is a message in this song that has given me motivation about my dreams and goals in life. In every one of ChianoSky's song, there lies a message that everyone can interpret in their own way.

Thank you to Assembly and ChianoSky for this event to happen,
Thank you to everyone who attended!
This was truly an amazing event!

Thanks everyone for reading my blog.

The SoapGirls

A lot of people may ask: Who are The SoapGirls?

Well, I am going to tell you exactly who they are. The word 'SOAP' stands for Sassy Outrageous And Pink. Camille and Noemie  (A.K.A Millie and Mie) make up The SoapGirls. They are sisters and they are originally born in Paris, France. They also know a bit of 66 languages, which to me is a talent. When they were younger, they used to sell their own home made soap for various causes/charities ,in Hout Bay, Cape Town, next to the fish and chips shop that is called "Marina's Wharf" . Mille and Mie discovered that they wanted to be singers at a young age.

Last year, in the year 2011, The SoapGirls released their first single "Sour" which was played on the radios. One day, when the SOAP Girls were busy being interviewed by 94.5 KFM, when they spoke, they both spoke at the same time, the exact same words (which not even my sister and I could do).

They have a Facebook  fan page called "The SoapGirls", in which case, last year (2011), I started talking to them. At first I was a little shy as I couldn't believe that I was talking to a well-known group. After a while I started talking to The SoapGirls a lot more as I have become a big fan of theirs. The SoapGirls call their fans 'Diamonds'.

Mid December last year, they released their debut album "Xperience" which is available at any CD store in South Africa. In my opinion, I think you should definitely buy their CD. From what I know, The SoapGirls have worked long and stressful hours to create such an incredible album. I love all the song tracks on their album, but the current song which I am listening to mostly is "Hurricane". As I said, all their songs are amazing, they are meaningful and very inspirational. 

My advice when you first listen to the SOAP Girls album: When you first listen to their album, close your eyes and try to understand what message they are telling you.

My review of the SoapGirls music video "Hurricane":

If you haven't watched the 'behind the scenes' of this music video, then you might not understand the meaning of the music video. If you watch the 'begins the scenes' video, the SoapGirls state that this music video is true to who they are as people and as musicians. It also shows that they are not afraid of any challenges they face. In the music video, towards the bridge of their song, in one scene, they may be baring their skin, but to me, it shows that they are not afraid of anything that comes their way. To me, if you bare your skin on a movie, TV Series or music videos, it shows that you are not afraid. Instead, you have a high self-esteem, you are confident about yourself and you love yourself just the way you are (I don't mean conceited, you are generally happy with who you are). "Hurricane" is definitely a song about love (It is almost like a metaphor about love). My advice to you is when you first watch the music video, look at it carefully and try to understand the message the SOAP Girls are conveying.

The SoapGirls have inspired me when I first knew about them. Yes, Amy Lee is my number 1 role model I look up to, but I also look up to other people like the SOAP Girls. They are motivated and tell their fans never to give up on their goals and dreams, and that's what I look up to in them.

I can tell you that I have to thank them for giving me the opportunity to meet them at the MCQP. Their performance was truly amazing! They were really funny and everyone I saw at the MCQP enjoyed their performance. During The SoapGirls performance, they played "Puppet on a String" and they said that it was especially for one of their fans (Yes, that was me.). After their performance, I got to meet them, and they signed their album for me. When I met them, they were down-to-earth girls, very kind and their personalities are so warm with care.

I have recently asked The SoapGirls via the social network, Twitter, if they could answer the following questions:

1. What inspired both of you to become singers?

TSG: "We have since the youngest age found happiness and inspiration in music and performing."

2. Who are your role models?

TSGs: "Our mom, she is very inspiring/amazing and Madonna."

3. How long did it take to record your album "Xperience"?

TSG: "9 Months."

4. How motivated are you both before a performance?

TSG: "We always amped, it's our favourite part performing live to a crowd."

5. What was it like when you shot your music video "Hurricane"? What was the experience like?

TSG: "It was amazing to be able to put ourselves physically to our song".

I am a huge fan of The SoapGirls and I am Proud to be a Diamond!

The SoapGirls are definitely my favourite pop group.

Review of the Brand New Locnville "James Dean" Song.

The song starts off with what sounds like and orchestra of violins. The beats then start coming in after about 10 seconds, which sounds incredible when it is combined with the violin type orchestra.

After about 10 seconds, the chorus starts and Locnville start singing.  The chorus is repeated twice, but as Locnville end the chorus part, the name “James Dean” is said in a different way, like a robot speaking. It sounds really good!

As the 1^st verse starts, Locnville start to rap for the rest of the verse, which sounds so incredible! I cannot actually describe how amazing it sounds; it is almost a little bit different to what their music on their albums is like. When the line “I'm just rolling with the punches in a jungle and its fierce” is sung, you can hear in the background a sound of a lion roar.

After the first verse, the chorus starts again and is also repeated twice. Again, you hear the name at the end of the chorus, “James Dean” in a robotic sort-of voice, but the voice’s sound is lower than what you expect of an actual robot talking, which I find very cool!

In the second verse, the music beats stop and as Locnville sing, the music beats start again and as Locnville sing this line “'cause I'mma huff and puff until this blunt burn out”, I get a visual effect of the story “The Three Little Pigs” as the wolf huff’s and puff’s and blows the two pigs houses down. I find the second verse really up-beat and just perfect!

After the second verse, the chorus starts again. After the chorus is repeated twice, you hear the sound of the music that was played at the intro of the song, almost like a violin orchestra. You also hear a woman speaking at the end, you hear the name “James Dean” after the woman speaks, then you hear a man’s voice speaking, it sounds like a quote from someone. Right at the end of the song, you hear the name “James Dean”, then the song finishes.

In my opinion, I think this is relaxing music to listen to, whether you’re driving to work or you are on a road trip, this song is perfect for anything you do.

PS: Please help Locnville to let everyone in the world listen to this inspirational song.

If you have a Twitter account and would like to share your thought about this song, please use the hashtag #JamesDean

Thank you for reading my review on the new Locnville song!

KDay 2012

I woke up and it was 07:30am and I quickly got dressed and ready to hit the road to head to KDay. I went with Monica and her mom. We were all extremely tired and stopped at a McDonald's on the way. We drove past the Engen 1 stop and to our surprise, we saw the KFM Ground Patrol Team drive past us, that is when I knew I couldn't wait for KDay to start! It would be my very first time going to KDay and I knew that it would be one of the best days for this year.

When we arrived at Val de Vie, there was a queue of cars waiting to go into the venue. Monica and I walked ahead to see how many cars there were, but it was car after car after car...
We walked back to our car and after a while, we were allowed to go into the venue. The parking lot was quite hectic, you had to try and find a parking spot and run to get to the line before anyone else as the line to get into the KDay venue was getting longer.
It felt like ages before we could go into the Val de Vie venue. After a while, the Ground Patrol Team came out and asked are we all ready for KDay and we all screamed "YEAH!". After a while, when it got to 11am, we were still waiting to get inside the venue. I could hear that one of the artists were busy with sound checking, I think KFM wanted us to get excited for KDay, even though we were haha!

The gates finally opened, we all got inside the venue and I ran straight to the stage, I even took my shoes off and bolted to get us a perfect spot. I didn't really have to run to get a good spot, as everyone else was walking, taking their time to get a spot. I looked up by the stage and I saw Dan Patlansky and Elvis Blue who were busy with sound checking. Three girls screamed for Elvis Blue and he looked up at them.
I saw KFM members come out with KFM merchandise, so I went to get sunscreen and a KFM cap which I wore for the rest of the day. We waited for a while, then my friend and I decided we were going to walk around and see where everything is. We went to the merchandise table, there was the Look & Listen stand where the music artists came to sign merchandise after their performance and some of the KFM presenters and there was The Greek Merchant table where they sold the music artists merchandise like T-shirts, earrings, necklaces, caps and vests.

While we were at the merchandise table, I saw Cassidy, Terrence and Candice (who are the KFM Ground Patrol Team) and they all knew who I was. I gave Cassidy and Candice a hug and we got pictures taken with them. They are such incredible people, so nice and sweet and are always happy.

After chatting to Cassidy, Terrence and Candice, my friend and I walked around the whole venue, then we went back to out seats. I turned to see Ben Peters from GOODLUCK on stage, so my friend and I went to the stage and said hello to him and then we went right in front were GOODLUCK was going to perform. I found out that before each act, about 2 KFM presenters will come on stage and welcome the music artist on stage. For the first act, which was GOODLUCK, Ryan O' Connor, Charmaine Noy, Jeremy Harris, Deon Bing and Stephen Werner came on stage.

They were so cool and the crowd went crazy when they were on stage. They welcomed GOODLUCK on stage and WOW! GOODLUCK is so awesome when they perform live! I saw them when I went to the KFM Studios on Tuesday but, honestly, I haven't seen them perform live on stage in front of so many people. They are just so AMAZING! Juliet looked stunning in her outfit she was wearing. I still remember she said to the crowd that she received a wonderful gift from my Monica, my friend. When GOODLUCK performed "Taking it Easy" Juliet welcomed Mathew Moolman on stage who is featured in the song. They were both brilliant on stage, it was beautiful to see Mathew and Juliet sing together. Ben came with a drum and Raven came with his saxophone and they both played in front of the stage and everyone, I mean EVERYONE was dancing and going crazy. After a couple of their songs, Juliet gave 2 GOODLUCK CD's away, but in order to win one, you had to dance like crazy. Two girls won the CD's. Overall, GOODLUCK was so cool in stage! I personally think they were my favourite act on stage. With all their music and performance, you cannot help but dance to every song they perform.
After their performance, Mark Pilgrim came on stage and he was live on air with the Kia Take40SA. He asked for all of us (the crowd) to scream and we all did, it was great to see so many people had fun and really had a good time.

 Next up were The Arrows. To be honest, I haven't seen The Arrows perform live, but they took my breath away when they started performing their first song. They were amazing! It was cool to see Pam and hear her lovely voice live for the first time and see Christie play the drums, she was really good. They are both very talented.

About halfway in their performance, Monica and I went to see if GOODLUCK was at the merchandise table signing any merchandise or CD's. To our surprise, GOODLUCK was there. As we were in the queue, I turned and saw one of the KFM members bringing out a huge KFM hand, I went to grab one and then I went back to the queue. When Monica and I were in front of the queue and GOODLUCK saw us, we started talking for a while and got our big KFM hand signed as well as cards GOODLUCK had. Juliet thanked Monica for giving her the bracelet and that she'll treasure it.

After chatting to GOODLUCK, we walked past the VIP section and I saw Benito, a KFM presenter, and I got a picture taken with him. He asked me if I would like to be live on air on KFM and I said that I would be delighted to. Benito was talking live on air on KFM and he said that he is going to chat to someone who is here for the first time, then he asked me was KDay everything I expected it to be. I replied saying that it was beyond what I expected, all the enthusiasm, excitement and the people are great and the music artists are just amazing. After the interview, Ian, who work at KFM said that I was brilliant. We also saw Mathew Moolman and my friend and I got a picture taken with him, he is such a talented person with an amazing voice!

After talking to Ian and Benito, Monica and I went back to the merchandise table as I saw Keri miller going there, so we went back and I finally got to meet Keri Miller. She is such an Amazing person and is very pretty! I remember she said that it felt like she has known me forever, which was pretty awesome! It did feel like that. I got a picture taken with her and I got a card signed by her as well as my KFM hand she signed and Deon Bing signed. Deon Bing, he is such a funny person. He was signing cards and said that a card will get you a free beer Haha! (I don't know if that was true though...). The music Artist that was on stage was Loyiso, who was pretty good on stage, everyone that was near the stage went crazy for him and I just saw hands in the air!

Next up, Stacey Norman and Elana Afrika came on stage to welcome Danny K. When he came on stage, all you heard were girls screaming for him. I must tell you that he performed very well, everyone I saw went mad for him and were dancing and singing to his music.

Monica and I walked around more (Yes, we hardly sat down, we just walked, but we were mainly by the Merchandise area Haha!). We saw Liezel van der Westuizen and we got a picture taken with her. She is also very pretty and she was wearing very bright shoes, which were really cool! Monica and I also got to meet Pam from The Arrows. We walked around more and we saw Ryan O'Connor and Elana Afrika. To my surprise, they knew who I was, which was totally awesome! I got to also meet Stephen Werner, who is a producer of KFM. I talked to him for a while, saying that I still have my Pumped up for Summer sticker that I received last year when KFM was by corner of Wetton Road.

The next act I saw on stage was Elvis Blue. He performed "Save Me", which is my favourite song from him. After a few songs, Elvis Blue welcomed Dan Patlansky on stage, and I must say that it was an amazing performance. I last saw Dan Patlansky at Kirstenbosch in January and he was really good. This performance with Elvis Blue and Dan Patlansky was very nice and they are really talented guys! I got to meet Elvis Blue at the Merchandise table. I told him that it was me who made the KDay picture especially for KDay and he said that he wanted to meet me. I got a picture taken with him and he signed one of my T-shirts I bought with me to KDay.

The next act was The Parlotones. They were amazing! (Beyond Amazing actually.). I wasn't near the stage, but I could hear everyone going crazy for The Parlotones. I was happy that they performed "Save you best bits" as it is their new single and there will be a new music video for this song, and I am featured in this music video. It felt like The Parlotones performed for a long time, but I didn't mind, I loved their performance, they are so talented and they are one of the reasons why I am Proudly South African. South Africa really has great music bands who have worked so hard to get to where they are today. The Parlotones were really great! I truly enjoyed their performance, Kahn jumped off the stage and I just heard the crowd go WILD! Many people that were standing next to me asked how will Kahn get back on stage, haha! It was a true question. Throughout their performance, I was standing in the queue at the merchandise table, after I met Elvis Blue, while The Parlotones were performing, I saw Cassidy and I went to ask her if she can maybe call Lee Downs, and she did. Wow! She is such a wonderful girl! She is really kind and really sweet! She came back with Lee Downs and he signed a card and I got a picture taken with him. He is such an awesome guy! I listen to his afternoon drive on 94.5 KFM every weekday with Keri Miller.

After I chatted to Lee Downs, I went back the line to get my merchandise signed. The queue was very long and it felt like ages just to get to the front. I think the reason for that is people were pushing in, which was unfair. Anyway, Monica and her mom came to me in the line as I was in line for them because I have already met The Parlotones, so I wasn't too worried if I didn't get to meet them.

The next act was Flash Republic, who I was dying to see on stage. Their opening song was "Devastation", which was so cool because that is one of my favourite songs from them. I was also very happy that they performed "Killer Moves", which is my favourite song from them and is a totally AMAZING. I couldn't help but sing when they performed that song, one of the guitarists even licked his guitar. I was unable to meet Flash Republic as the line for Flash Republic to sign merchandise was too long and I have been basically standing there the whole day, so I went closer to the stage and stayed there.

The next act was Prime Circle. They definitely took my breath away with their performance. Just as I was going to take pictured of Prime Circle, my camera battery died, which was really sad! All I can say is that prime Circle was really Fantastic on stage! Word cannot describe how amazing they were, seriously! I cannot describe how amazing they were! My friend and I just danced like mad and were rocking it out to Prime Circle's songs.

After their performance, Locnville came on stage. Their performance was cool! They played most of the songs I like on their "Running to Midnight" Album. My friend and I were getting tired from dancing, but we kept on. Locnville's music really makes you dance, you cannot help but dance and go crazy. They did, however, play a new remix, which took me by surprise and left me speechless. I really wanted to record the song, but my camera batteries were really dead, which was truly upsetting! I was happy to see the rest of Locnville's performance, it was truly Amazing! I was so happy they performed "6 Second Poison", which is my favourite song off their "Sun in my Pocket" Album. Their performance is always Fantastic! I also did see Sarah-Jan Nicholson at KDay and she looked very pretty! She is really an amazing girl, very kind and very sweet, I always say that she is a Super-Awesome Girl!
After their performance, I didn't have the energy to stand in line to meet Locnville and have merchandise signed as my feet were killing me. Plus, I have met them already at KFM's Front Row Friday and at the Cornetto Festival, so I didn't mind and my camera batteries were dead. I also had to leave as it was getting late. As I was leaving, I think it was people who work at Val de Vie gave us a bottled water and a pamphlet. As I got into my car, Monica, her mom and I left Val de Vie, but wow! It was hectic because there was traffic!

Overall, I had One Heck of an Amazing time at KDay! it was my very first time to KDay and let me tell you if you weren't there, you missed out on so much fun! From the excitement to the actual day to the wonderful venue to meeting the KFM Presenters to all the music artists that performed on stage, it was really one of the best days ever for 2012! I cannot thank 94.5 KFM enough for organizing this day, it was really a great experience to see the music artists and to mostly see the spectacular and awesome KFM Presenters. I could not believe all of the KFM Presenters knew who I was, it was totally Fantastic! Another reason why i love KFM is because all the KFM Presenters are so kind and very sweet, not one of them were rude to anyone. They are all truly amazing!
Also a big thank you to Look & Listen and The Greek Merchant.for selling Albums, T-shirts, Caps, necklaces, earrings and vests!
If you'd like to purchase anything from The Greek Merchant, here is their website:

http://www.thegreekmerchant.com/
I cannot think of a better Merchandise team like The Greek Merchant. Seriously! They are the best online-store I know. The person that is in charge of The Greek Merchant is: Yiorgos Spanoudis.
A BIG Thank you to KFM for everything! I really appreciate all your hard work and effort you put into organizing KDay! The weather was wonderful, the venue was lovely and it was the perfect day for KDay. I also love KFM merchandise I received from the KFM members this day!
KDay took place at Val de Vie Estate.

Thank you to everybody who attended KDay!

The Graeme Watkins Project Live at the V&A Waterfront

I arrived at the V & A Waterfront around lunch time, when I was meant to be there at only 6pm to watch The Graeme Watkins Project. Even though I arrived very early before 6pm (It must have been 02:30pm). I went with my friend, Monica and her mom, Mary-Anne to the Waterfront. We walked to the amphitheatre, only to notice it was quite packed with people. We found a spot right in front by the stage. Monica and I went into the Waterfront mall. Mary-Anne sat by the amphitheatre with her little blue umbrella. We (Monica and I) walked around the Waterfront, our first stop was McDonald's. I looked at the McFlurry's only to notice that there was Cornetto Sundae's and Cornetto McFlurry. I didn't but one, but I cannot believe that it was Cornetto.Cornetto is my number: 1 favourite ice-cream.

After McDonald's, we went to Pick 'n Pay, only then did I buy a Cornetto ice-cream. I have seen that my favourite flavor, strawberry (Strawberry Kisses), is quite hard to find in any shop I have been to.I was so happy that I the Waterfront had my favourite flavor of Cornetto ice-cream. It's funny how what you want, you cannot have or it is hard to find your favourite thing, but it is not hard for other people.

After Pick 'n Pay, we went to Melissa's shop. My friend and I bought a BOS Ice Tea. BOS Ice Tea is a great drink to have, it is organic and one of my favourite drinks to have. We walked to the Mega Musica store, we saw a table full of the Twilight Saga merchandise. Monica bought two New Moon wrist bands.

After all that, we went back to the amphitheatre and sat there for a while. it was still quite a bit of time left before The Graeme Watkins Project performed.

After sitting, Monica and I went to the monument that is made out of Coca-Cola crates and both its fingers have a peace sign showing. We took some pictures of us standing by the monument. It was so amazing to see such a lovely view. I was looking at what an amazing view the Waterfront really has. The boats, the restaurants, the red clock tower, the water and the beautiful scenery.

After taking pictures and laughing as we took them, we went back to the amphitheatre. As we sat down, we turned around and saw Graeme Watkins by his family. Monica and I went to say "Hello" to him, we got to get a picture with him. He knew who Monica was as she has been talking to him for a while and when I introduced myself to him, he said that he has seen me in pictures on facebook with Monica. I was shocked when Graeme said he knew who I was. Haha! That was so cool. We saw the other band members (Matt, Rudo and Ryno) and chatted to them for a little bit. We went to sit back by our seats.

The Graeme Watkins Project came on stage and set up the sound system etc. When Ryno started playing his guitar, the speakers started making a hissing sound, Graeme told the people who were dealing with the sound and then Graeme did a pose like a snake, which was too funny! Monica and I got up and stood by the stage. When The Graeme Watkins started their music, Graeme started to jump around and I must say, he is very much alive on stage. I was so happy when he sang "Blood shot Eyes". It's my favourite song off their album. Many people may have not been standing, but they were moving around in their seats.

After about 3-4 songs, Graeme asked if everyone can stand and dance, so everyone did. Monica's mom came to us by the stage and we all danced. Graeme asked the audience to repeat after him with these words "Soldier on". He came to Monica and I and sang "Soldier on" and then put the mic to me and I sang as well, he did it again and then went off going crazy on stage. It was really cool to watch The Graeme Watkins Project Live on stage. It was a really great performance, I thoroughly enjoyed it. the other band members were also very much alive on stage, dancing from side-to-side to jumping up and down, it was a really great experience to see them on stage. They are a really Awesome band! Monica and I danced to every song that was performed. To be honest, this was my very first time i have ever seen The Graeme Watkins Project perform Live.

After their performance, my friend's mom started the whole "We want more" and we all clapped screaming "We want more". Ha! Monica's mom even hit the wood part on the stage, and then The Graeme Watkins Project came back on stage and performed one last song.
After their performance, we chatted to the band members for a little while. Monica and I got a picture taken with the whole band together and then we all said "Goodbye" and Mary-Anne, Monica and I went home.
I must say that I really enjoyed this day, it was one of the best days in my life!

Thank you everyone who read this Blog!
Many Thanks!
