The moment you realise your AS Level Music Technology coursework is going to fail in both audio recording and sequencing, and your teacher has written the words "GO AWAY - I AM BUSY" on his door for a reason.
Here is a video i recorded of a video of my first ever gig at The Horse and Groom with my phone. Needless to say, it is a bit terrible:
"Very entertaining" - OLD MAN ON TUBE
"Oh not you again..." - SAME OLD MAN ON TUBE 10 MINUTES LATER
"You're just doing that so you get more lyrics for your songs..." - ROSIE
"The most amazing hilarious music adventure you could possibly encounter in our brief but meaningless existence on this terrible scrap of shit known as planet earth." - ANITAKILLKILLKILL!, I <3 AUDREY!
"Supporting was Abi Makes Music, tales exploring petulance, bitchiness and other dark areas of the female psyche, set to deliberately shambolic keyboards. Sassy, knowing and no doubt ironic, Abi sounded like Mogul for sixth-formers." - ORGAN MAGAZINE, 07/06/07
"That was probably the best and funniest thing I've witnessed in a long time." - SOUND MAN AT BOX BOT, DEPTFORD ARMS 16/11/07
"Such misuse of the term 'slut' makes me wonder about the rest of her lyrics. Not much though, they're just shite." - LAST NIGHT FROM GLASGOW INDIE EYESPY 24/01/08
I play with my £46 Ebay Yamaha PSR-282 keyboard, record with my Poundland microphone, and vocalise with my chords damaged from laughing at my mum’s exasperated face too much.
I also make nights of fun. Here are some past nights of fun that I have made happen:
I have good days...
...and I have terrible days...
This was my encore song at the Horse and Groom... Duckett Boy drowned out my potential encore no.2 with Barbie Girl. I was not amused, but at least he has a good upright back-of-the-head.
Hi Abi, It's festimania here at the RGB HQ, if you're coming to Creamfields (Andalucia) The Great Escape, Bestival, Wireless, Rockness, Dot to Dot, or Hyde Park Calling then give us a shout!
Hey! Just wanted to let you know that we are playing a gig on Monday 5th of May (Bank Holiday) in Hoxton if you happen to be in town :) You can put your name down on the 3 pound cheap guest list on our space..
why don't you do one of them little surveys to see if your FANS want the photo uploaded or not?
or even better we could sell copies on ebay with hand decorated frames? rather than knee decorated ones that would look rubbish if you like traditional hand drawn aestetics. knees are a limb too far for many. xxxxxxxx
i like to creep up on my rellies when they have bowel movements. have you ever wanted to attempt to ice a cake through someones intestine? a billous treat.
monkey girl said that i can't try out for rugby trials. this makes ebony unhappy.
yeah, i been doing that fitting thing too. also had really bad nights sleep where i kept having people walking into the flat / bedroom and could hear knocking on the door, things falling over. kept feeling that people were staring at me and had to check no one was there. was all twitchy and tense. thinking is bit of an efffort.
also my legs and arms occasionally and spontaniously shoot out at random.
won a casio on ebay for £7 though, not anything special, bit like your mini keys yamaha but for the price a good back-up.
get some uni stuff done, i really want to start doing this performance installation with you.
yeah... i wondered why you had us on there twice. don't put cancelled because the shout people may get cross that people will think that shout is cancled.
