the evil monkey’s blog

well yesterday we got our props, 4 briefcases and the other group got 4 “puffs” as you may already know from the other blogs. today we started to perform using our new props. first our briefcases were transformed into laptops then into mechanisms used in an ipod which were like the artist, then the song. pretty awesome. the other group had nothing so we are clearly the better group and we are one step ahead.

i came up with a great idea the other day, aaron would agree with me…
how about a placard……….wait for it…..
ON A BRICK WALL!!! ay, ay?

well i think that these props will come in handy and we will be able to use them in multiple different way. let your ideas run wild then trap them in the briefcase!

well im gonna blow this popsicle stand. catcha’s all tomorrow, if not… ill see you maybe when we go back to school. LAST DAY TOMORROW!

bye now

i told clarry that id write a post tonight so here i am.
just looked up some stuff on people in music that we dont see in the songs like the managers, sound tech, groupie, roadie, etc. then tried to find info on stereotypical band members and “what they do” according to others.
well thats it from me for the time being.
“see you on the other side” - (Korn album, thought it would be a good exiting line).

so here i am downloading music i dont even like to make people happy then realize that this, in a way, could help with drama. all these stupid computerised beats make music seem easy and the songs have no point to them. what happened to the bands/artists that played instruments and sang and actually worked hard on writing music.

music is spreading rapidly and different forms of different genres are being created. it is spreading like a bushfire, next we could be hearing dogs on the radio barking with a group of people yelling going on in the background and we are gonna call that music? it may even be number 1!

 and all those bands still going from decades of playing music (the rolling stones, slayer, black sabbath, metallica etc, etc) i look up to them because they are still doing what they love doing and aren’t changing no matter what the media say about them. keep on trucking!

Well thats my 2 cents worth.

see ya round like a coconut!

           

well, we are doing our ensembles on the stimulus ‘another brick in the wall’ by pink floyd. My thoughts to start with we this would be cool because im into alot of music and have a good general knowledge of it. when we started doing workshops after we found out the basics, i realized that there is more to this than just the music. we have to encorperate epic theatre and the setting is in a dream or fantasy.
All in all, i think ill enjoy doing this and look forward to get to work!
^^^^ - see what i did there.
peace out yo!
