listen to the rhythm

The Rhythm Kiozk boys put up a great drum performance during the youth concert on Saturday night. So proud of them :) I've witnessed first-hand the wonders of stress and intimidation. The bunch of 5 boys, all 13 years old only, were really intimidated by the stylo mylo older bands present. They were so scared that they ran back into the dressing room when they saw the bigger boys approaching. So funny! Then they started to practise their drums for the next 8 hours, pausing only to play the fool (read: hiding in cupboards, switching off all the lights to scare people and looking for other 13-year-old girls to bioh...sigh...boys will be boys...) This was the first time I saw them take the performance so seriously... they just banged and banged on the drums throughout the day.

Thank goodness my colleague brought UNO cards (meant to entertain bored social workers who turned out to be very busy instead) and the boys gave my eardrums a break from more drumming by playing the cards. Thanks to my sporting colleagues who cheered, clapped and whistled when the boys performed, cos they really responded to the support through their playing! :)
