Man! "School of Rock" was an awesome movie... It brings back so many memories of highschool... I can draw lines between most of the events that happened in the movie to my actual experience. I guess all want-to-be-rockers stuck in school go through rather similar experiences. Ah~ Kinda comforting... ^^; Our band was the first rock band to have held a concert at the International School of Beijing, so we reserve some bragging rights, tho. ;) Man, looking back at it now, the school would most likely have opened up a huge can of whoop ass on us had they found out what was really going on with my afterschool activity. I mean there were barely any ISB students in it and we practiced in rooms that we really weren't allowed to... We were sneaking in through windows, using school facilties on weekends, etc... Since I was part of the Yearbook staff we actually had an entire 2 page spread in the official school Yearbook!! HA! :P Well, you get the idea... Although we didn't do anything along the lines of a criminal offense, as far as the strict guidelines of the holy ISB was concerned we were way out of bounds ^^;. They did find out at the end, but it was too late then ( They tried to stop our concert in the middle, but they failed! :P ). :P I won't say that the quality of our performance was top-notch, but we did try our very best, so that's what really counts. ;) Ah.... memories, memories... I could go on and on about the stories of our rock band, and there are so many of them, too. I wonder if ISB now has a rock band... No, not ones run by the school... I mean real rock bands with the desire to stick it to the man!! :D
