Today I'm writing up my experience of our induction project and displaying what exactly me and the band have archived in this first week of college.
The 1st day experience.
Similar to the first day of level to college was a strange environment ranging from meeting new people to learning and the new cover rules implemented this year was another aspect that raised more questions other than the initial questions I had regarding changes to college everything seemed vaguely normal. Eventually after a lightyear long register we began to develop the first band assigned to us by Nick and Phil our tutors, our band consisted with new and familiar faces with a range of musical talent. After having our band formed we had lesson time where we was reminded about the little things like what a SM58 is and how to put away wires like a jack to jack correctly After lesson time we managed to get 1 hour or 45 mins of pod time to select our songs for performance on the 22nd I believe we picked Billie Jean by Micheal Jackson, love the way you lie by Eminem & Rihanna and finally can't hold us by Macklemore.

Independent Rehearsal/Practice
Band Identity.
After a long chat with band and going over different styles to express our identity we decided on dressing like our own individual but wear atlas one peace of clothing that connects us and that was to wear one piece of black clothing on each member.
Stage Movement.
For me as the drummer I don't exactly move around in the traditional sense though I do believe I've mastered boxing my head to Billie Jean while playing the drums so at least I have that to my name other than me I do believe the singers have some sort of plan for stage movement though it's not exactly been a talking point in the band we have in one way or anther prepared ourselves to plan the stage movement.
Stage Movement revision.
These are videos I refer to when studying stage movement for the respected songs.
Independent Rehearsal/Practice
So effectively my independent rehearsal consist of me studying the songs in my spare time and also going out of my way to practice the songs on my personal drum kit to get more comfortable with the songs and increase my understanding of them.
