Unit 1: Performance 3

PERFORMANCE REFLECTION


What went well?

The performance altogether went very well (I believe) due to a combination of factors. I think we made a really solid arrangement which served the song well despite our lack of instruments.
Furthermore, the vocals are just incredible. Not only are they sung well, the mixing allows them to stand out.

What did we do well as a band?

All instruments did quite well, and despite any errors, we all recovered almost immediately and laughed it off instead of stopping and showing signs of stress or anger.
We exercised great communication skills during rehearsal to allow us to get to this point.

What could be improved as a band if we did this performance again?

If we had more time, obviously, the final result would have had less mistakes; the real bands probably practice for months and months to get it perfect. Otherwise, we could have had more crowd interaction, but then again, that depends on the atmosphere created by the music.

What did I do well as an individual in this performance?

I think I managed to transition between lead and rhythm guitar well, minimising the downtime between the two. The changes I made to the arrangement made the song flow better in my opinion, since I couldn't play all the guitar parts at one time.

What would I do differently as an individual if performing again?

I would probably interact more with the drummer and maybe practice the end of the solo more.

What targets can I set for myself next performance?

Mainly, I just have to strive for determination and excellence in my performance. I think most improvement is done over time and exposure. In addition, I can practice more with the band and stay more at task.
