Today i experienced a glimpse of band-life that is so utterly different from the one i had been used to... to the point that i felt - pardon me - disappointed...
On one hand, i see a band that is about 130 strong, with nearly all its members striving so hard to achieve their targets of performing in their concert, and performing well, so much so that the energy they have can leave one so amazed n inspired...
While the other... one that does not have even 20 ppl... and it looks now as if they are there just for the sake of being there... well, i cant blame them having an entirely different level of music-making, cos no matter what, they are still learning... But when it comes to the point that whatever instructions and advices i give just seemingly falls on deaf ears, i really don't know what to do...
I got chided by a friend for choosing a simplistic piece for them... cos at this point, with the strength, i think that's the most they can handle, unless i can see a marked improvement next week... i really do hope i can do something more serious for them, as i hope that no matter how, this will still be an enriching, and that all those guys who have put their time in this will gain something everytime they walk out of the band room after the rehearsal...
Let's hope for something better next week, in terms of attendance, or even... some quality...
