elanorelle Posted May 17, 2008 Posted May 17, 2008 hullo all! I've got a gig! two hours of my music! nobody before or after me! full use of the soundboard , mics etc! in a large stage down town! holy crap! They accepted me! its on August 1st for two hours! so I have alot of an act to prepare (I KNOW HOW MIKA FEELS!) website btw http://www.myspace.com/suzannedwillies I need to pick a third cover ( might do three or just two!) or classical piece help! So far covers I might do : 1. Strawberry Fields (Beatles) 2. She's Like the Swallow ( NFLD folk song) too bad I can't do a MIKA piece..copyright and jazz like that...since it is sponsored by the city so help please! Suzanne:)
elanorelle Posted May 17, 2008 Author Posted May 17, 2008 STRAWBERRY FIELDS ...IMO And Congratulations! thanks! there was a posting so I applied! I am a little spooked because it could be in front of hundreds of people! and the sound carries too!
sienna Posted May 17, 2008 Posted May 17, 2008 thanks! there was a posting so I applied!I am a little spooked because it could be in front of hundreds of people! and the sound carries too! Oh Suzanne, I'm so happy for you! This is fantastic! …the sound carries...is that meant to be in philosophical way? I can’t be at any help with picking a cover, although I love music I have no idea what is going on behind the curtains. In my innocence I would have suggested Mikas SITM or MI because of the beautiful melodies. The Beatles? Old, maybe played too much by other artists but, oh I don’t know! How about choosing something from The Eurhythmics, like our beloved boy obviously does, they have almost a goldmine of good music. Okay I’ll stop now, I just don't have a clue! You are not supposed to say Good Luck I believe:huh:....But anyway, you know what I mean!
agnieszka Posted May 17, 2008 Posted May 17, 2008 i would suggest strawberry fields. though i'm afraid that's only coz i like this song so much, i've no idea which one is more suitable to perform on such an occasion. but anyway, congratulations, it sounds amazing!!
Finkster Posted May 17, 2008 Posted May 17, 2008 Hey Suzanne! Congratulations!! Between the two, I'd saw Strawberry Fields.
celien Posted May 17, 2008 Posted May 17, 2008 Strawberry Fields Congratulations! That's so cool! I'm sure your gig will be great!
elanorelle Posted June 4, 2008 Author Posted June 4, 2008 I wrote another piece for the gig coming up! I so will be needed your help later on in deciding what I should wear any other interesting stuff...there will be stage involvement of some kind..... your opinions will be so helpful! Suzanne:)
Anouk Posted June 4, 2008 Posted June 4, 2008 Oww my gosh!! How excited must you feel??:punk: Congratulations!! I'll go for Strawberry Fields too, I love it:wub2:
elanorelle Posted June 4, 2008 Author Posted June 4, 2008 Oww my gosh!! How excited must you feel??:punk: Congratulations!! I'll go for Strawberry Fields too, I love it:wub2: thanks a million! Suzanne:)
Sarah_loves_mika Posted June 4, 2008 Posted June 4, 2008 That's great! Two hours is a really good spot - most musicians like us would kill for that much time on stage! Go for it! And i'll suggest Strawberry Fields too...
natmika Posted June 4, 2008 Posted June 4, 2008 Congrats, Elanorelle!That must be a thrill, and nervewrecking too! You'll do great.I've been listening to Joni Mitchell lately, and one of my favourite songs of hers is The Circle game.That would be a great cover to play. I won't wish you good luck, so...merde!
