The Young, The Old & The In-Betweens!

Seems like Cove Red is set to conquer the young, the old, and the in-betweens! LOL

Last week, Cove Red invaded GreenRidge Secondary School, thus debuting our first of many future partnerships with ForeRunner, Campus Crusade For Christ's music ministry where we first met while volunteering some 2 years ago!

As mentioned in the previous post, we did 2 sets of songs for those kids there. They were so cute. Before we performed, they were a rowdy bunch who couldn't sit still and stop talking. During our sets, they kinda just mellowed down, though still fidgety, and listened to what we had to say and the songs. At one point nearing the end of the second set, I asked them if they were hungry. One boy said "yeah, we're hungry for more songs." Needless to say, we happily obliged and performed an extra song for them. Whoopee. =) All in all, a good gig. =)

Two days after the GreenRidge experience, we also played at Red Lantern. Met some cool people there, including an American singer-songwriter, Andie Francoeur who tickled our ears with her awesome originals. A few friends also came to support us and we were thrilled that they enjoyed our emo set. Yes. Emo. Freakin' amazing to play emo stuff in pubs. Andie cried when we sang "Gravity". Woot.

Next Sunday, we'll be taking down the old folks (haha)! Soul2Soul and Cove Red will be performing at a wedding together! We were told that most of the guests are pretty ... senior... so we have handpicked some senior favorites to win them over. Stuff like "Everything I Do, I Do It For You" and "True Colours" etc. =( Be all things to all men huh? Sing all songs to all kinds, I suppose. LOL...

Nonetheless, we had such an awesome time rehearsing with Soul2Soul last night! We did "L.O.V.E" and "The Way You Look Tonight" together and it sounded really good! =) Yay to collabs!

TONIGHT... we'll be playing a few numbers at OOOM6. can't wait!
