15 minutes of fame - or how I Monstered the Resistanz stage !
Wow.....What a weekend and a half that was. A complete dream come true as I played at being a Rock Star !
Geoff from Modulate, which is a band I already really liked and a good friend from Leeds & DJ'ing at The Wendy House dropped me an email when I was contemplating the Alt Whitby or Resistanz. He said come dance for me in your Droog outfit and i'll give you a free ticket. He had seen me bouncing many times at Wendy House and thought it would work well on stage.
For someone with very little in the way of musical talent and a love of bands this was pretty much a dream come true. A scary one yes, but something I just had to say HELL YES to. I later found out there was a minor request that came with it....That I wasn't allowed to tell anyone !!!!
I dropped a few hints that *something* was happening and i wasn't allowed to say what. I said that Resistanz had some surprises. I tried to nudge people towards both the festival and the Modulate gig. I even changed my FB icon to the Droog outfit. But i kept quiet.....and boy did I see some faces drop with amazement as I bounded out. Alas a few others missed it.
There were plenty of Cameras in the audience and shots have started appearing, also a couple of videos on youtube.
