Coz' I'm a punkrocker, yes I am
Around 50-55 persons yesterday night at home.Carol, Silvia, Ben and I invited some girls and guys from our respective classes, or people we got to know here. After looking for the ones totally lost in the neighbourood, waiting for the late ones, beers and wines warmed up the atmosphere. People everywhere in the house: kitchen crowded, impossible to walk threw the living room, even my room was filled with my VIP guests (lol).
People were having a good time I guess, small music smoothing the minds. I went out smoking two or three cigarettes, talking to people I didn't even know, giving the tour of the house, degusting (???) my Guiness. And then, Philip arrived...
Two weeks ago was the birthday's party of my roomate Silvia, and, Philip and I, planned to play a song for her, his guitar, my bass and us. Unfortunately, the party never happened, because of some health problems for Silvia. So, I said "let's do it on friday night, there will be more people, it's gonna be perfect". Yep, easy to say, but when you see all the people, you think "I'm never gonna make it..."
I've never played like this before, for people. But whatever, I drunk too much beers, plugged in my amp, jack in the bass, "hi guys, we've got a surprise for Silvia!". And here we go.
The first song is from Bloc Party, and I'm supposed to sing in the meantime. I'm so stressed that I don't know how my fingers start playing. We're in, we rock!
"I caught a glimpse, but it's been forgotten..."
People are quite enthusiastic, Silvia is almsot crying, I close my eyes, I let it go, my fingers playing alone, I feel good.
Our second song, from the 80's, Roxette with "Sleeping in my car". We can't really sing, so we let people do it for us. It's cool.
And the last song... We thought that we needed a song that everybody knew... What a better one than "All the small things" from Blink 182. It is easy to play, I totally free myself, even jump, sing. We rock !!!!!!
And the dream is over, I just made my first show. Woohoo.
This morning, hangover, football game (won at the penalty kicks), clean the house. I'll study later.
Thanks to everyone for coming yesterday. Cheers !
