STEM mk.2
So no pants day has come and gone and the world has kept spinning. No we didn't celebrate no pants day, it was far too cold for it.
On a much lighter note, we are out of quarantine. W000t!!!!! The home voted ourselves out of quarantine the day before the party. (Jenny's party that is) We got there quite early, (around 9:45) to drop off the strobe, and the black light to be used for the party. The only problem was that everyone was a 'Baiano'. They said the party was going to start at 9:30, but half of the people weren't there when it was 10:30!!! Ok, so the party started at 11 something, but it was worth the wait. I think...
Fast-fowards
On Sunday we went the the Church of Love over at Penha. And watched the young'uns play for the first time. Some of the people over there decided to make their own band, so they premiered last night. Twas ok. But the highlight of the night was definately the singing. Mine that is. I was practically pushed on stage. Granted it was a 14 year old girl who pushed me, and the room was nearly empty, but still... Gabe got the drums and left John C. drooling, since he never knew that Gabe played drums. *mutters something about punk rock bands*
So of course the first song of choice was the all time favorite 'Marianne'. Pamela (the same one who pushed me on the 'stage') was trying to push Marianne to the front of the 'large' crowd. (Ok fine, it was only a couple of people) Naturally, being in the limelight, my mind went blank several times, and reverted to mumbling the words until someone started singing the lyrics themselves. But with a little more practice I could definately become the new STEM.
Putting ambition aside, I didn't get very many compliments on my singing. Probably due to the fact that the room was almost empty. But if it is any small comfort, I do have a new fan, Pamela. Sporting her pigtails she was one of the loudest people screaming in the room. (I think she was the only one. Heh) Singing hits such as, 'Marianne', 'Jonny's Shoes' and 'Mr. President' we had the crowd begging us for more, but were forced to close up shop due to to 'techical problems'. (aka. 10:00 means silence in their neighborhood) But all in all the 'show' was good, the 'fans' were happy, and we did good for our first gig. We = Me (vocals), Gabe (drums), John C. (guitar), and we had the guest appearance of Phil (electric guitar and vocals).
So there you have it, the first show of the 'LIMbiscuits'.
P.S. I think I'll open an official fan club. It might help us recruit some more fans. *snicker
