Hello Sammixjx and welcome to the Thig
I have a few questions for you to answer prior to your audition to check that you are a musician and not too cocky
1.What instrument do you play?
2.What grade are you?
3.Do you know what a dictionary is?
4.Have you ever experienced the sharp edges of a piccolo before?
5.R U avin a larf?

Read what other people have asked over the past and what information they can give. Good Luck..........I think you'll need it. |
Thats going to fill him/her with loads of confidence! "I think you'll need it".
Just read up a little bit of the bands history and make sure you've got a few pieces well prepared. Fitness is important, so if you havent started already then get running! It's all about the effort you put in, not necessarilyhow good you are. Try and be confident but not overly and make an effort to get to know the others on the audition.
Good luck! You'll have a great time! |

no you didnt sound cheeky. You sounded like you were answering the questions that people were asking you, and you dont sound like your "avin a larf" as someone put it. Good luck for March by the way! |
