Rock Camp

By Josh West

As I clapped my drumsticks together…1, 2, 3, 4 our band ‘The Demented Seagulls’ started to play. The curtains pulled and the lights glared at us on stage, I realised I didn’t feel too nervous. We were the first act of Rock Camp 2020.
Rock Camp was held in the first week of the school holidays at the Playhouse Theatre Cafe. I joined 14 other kids aged between 9-16 years who play music from different schools. This year there were five drummers, including me which was a record. We were all divided into groups and worked on creating an original song as well as practicing existing songs.
After five days’ worth of working together we finished the camp with a concert that our family and friends could watch. It was an awesome feeling playing on stage in a band and I will be going back for Rock Camp next year.
A special thanks to Wayne Densem who generously sponsored me to attend Rock Camp.
