First Rock of Ages Rehearsal!


We had our first Rock of Ages rehearsal on Sunday September 12th. We have two bands this time, and quite a few new faces to the program! The junior rockers worked on California Dreaming by The Mamas and Papas. I was shocked to find out that none of the kids knew the song before we started working on it! I guess they will become more familiar with it when it winds up on Glee. Anyway, by the end of rehearsal we had the kids singing harmonies! This is the first time we have been able to incorporate vocal harmonies into the program because for the first time we have many vocalists in the band. This should make for a very interesting junior rock band! Next song for the junior rockers..."Benny and The Jets".

The teen band began work on "In My Life" by The Beatles. The teen band is all returning members except for one, so they made quick work of the song, and are ready to move onto some new stuff next week! We'll keep you updated on the bands' progress from week to week!
Stay tuned...
