Bobby Dazzling my way around Luton this week with three more gigs. We are enjoying the project and it has bene useful for me to see the different school and the different approached we take to this age group (Year 11). One place in particular really annoyed me. It has a 90 % Asian mix but most of the teachers are white middle aged. They barked orders at the kids as if they were slaves, and seeing line upon line of Asian kids being shouted at just felt unseemly. I think it raises my performance though, and makes me want to break down that barrier of silence and oppression. BAsically, I am a modern day Robin Hood, stealing misery from kids and replacing it with joy. There should be streets named after me I think. Evening session was quiet due to parents evening, and I then stayed on for adult rehearsals, and did a little recording for them. We then got home, and went through eldest's audition pieces for audition this weekend! Busy day!
