Amphitheatre 29th August
Sunday 29th August 2010Concert at South Shields Amphitheatre By Abbie StewartAge 10 - (Cornet)On the 29th of August we thought it would rain but it didn?t. We needed to know if we would be playing at the Amphitheatre or not, we did in the end! The only trouble was that we weren?t sitting in the usual spot; which is behind the circle we were sitting somewhere else. We sat under the shelter because we thought it would rain also we were hoping the windows had glass in, did they? No! It was extremely windy on the day and with us right next to the beach with no glass in the windows and wind so strong it wasn?t the most pleasant conditions. The sand was going into everybody?s eyes (the people with contact lenses I feel sorry for). After we got all set up we played our first half, we played about 10 pieces then it was break. By break everybody was freezing. Whilst everyone was getting their HOT chocolate disaster struck! The wind had been getting stronger and knocked down loads of stands and instruments it was the worst conditions the band has ever played in. Because of the weather we got told to do just 20 more minutes then pack up if we wanted to and that?s exactly what we did!The audience did a fantastic job of collecting the music which blew off the stands during play, I don't think we lost any!!
