Greetings Whoever You Are,
On saturday 18th may there was a fundraising event in kintbury, in aid of breast cancer. Please, please, please go and check out their website http://coppafeel.org. Raising over £1000, it was a successful evening with many bands performing including my dads band, the MiGZ, who were the headline band.
The MiGZ play a range of songs: Forget You, Oh What A Night and Viva la Vida. My dad is the bass guitarist, playing with Jamie on lead guitar, Alex on drums, Peter as voice, Ian on keyboard and 2 backing vocalists. Ian sometimes plays the drums, guitar and sings Price Tag. They have 2 songs of their own written by Jamies called Good Old Boy Blues, which is about going to the pub, and Confessions, which is about lurvvvv.
When I arrived, when another band was playing, I was scared that nobody I knew wasn't going to be there because nobody I invited could make it.. But 2 minutes in I spotted my friend Eleanor and I nearly knocked her off the wall she as sitting on as I rushed to hug her! We talked and played catch and had to improvise when she threw it on top of the hedge (twice). We found a broom handle and started prodding the hedge, blindly, until I guided Eleanor to the spot where it was resting while balancing on the wall.
About and hour or two later, our friend Grace arrived just before my dad was due to go on stage. While we waited for the MiGZ to go on, we spent our time taking sweets from the sweet basket! When the band finally started playing we listened to a couple of their songs while busting some crazy dance moves.
We decided to go for a walk and we got back for the last few songs of the band, which was good because we still had some moves to bust and shout the lyrics of 'Dakota' and 'Rocks', then waving goodbye to Grace and Eleanor, I felt bad for my mum about her having to cycle home at 23:00 for a 7 mile bike ride while being not quite sober. After congratulating the band and my dad for an excellent performance, my uncle, aunty, brother, his 'friend' Chloe and I headed back to the house. And after a nice apple and hot chocolate, I just…zzzzzzzzz.
