A day in the life of a rockstar by Brodie Jones

I am Brodie Jones the drummer of the new Tahuna School band Velvet Concord! It's all thanks to Ms Bowen that we came together as a band. And now I will tell you about the short journey we have had so far about bandquest and how I've felt all the way…

On the day of the Band Quest I wasn't nervous at all. I felt very excited. The reason that i wasn't nervous is probably because i've already performed in front of at least 200 more people solo! When our name was called to go on stage I was so excited but not to perform, I was excited to have fun (and play on the drum kit mostly… but we don't talk about that) We smashed the competition and left in style! When all the bands got called up on to the stage I was nervous. We didn't get third or second and we were so nervous but then the judge says…"And the winner is.....’’ we all started doing a drum roll ‘’VELVET CONCORD!!!’’ We screamed in happiness. Soon after, we helped Ms Bowen put the equipment back in her car and then we had hugs all round! We were hugging and we  jumped for joy screaming. We won $500 for the school music department and now off to Nationals!!
