Furthermore, I finally moved to the other side of the bar. I still my concert clothes on (black shirt, paints, and blazer), so people were slightly looking at me and perhaps mentally saying "why is he dressed like that?". I ordered another Double-white and started enjoying the music more deeply, for now I was able to see "hell" as it's. I stayed by myself for fifteen minutes and I was able to approach a few people and talk to them a little bit. Talk after talk, I met a guy who also plays the violin, but not classical music. He saw that I was caring a violin and approached me asking if I wanted to jam with him joining the other musicians performing in there which he already knew.

Also, after my jamming experience much more people approached me to talk which made feel "famous" for a little bit.

Perhaps the half-naked belly dancers? Or the amount of alcohol consumed? I do believe the proximity of dancers, musicians, costumers (mostly drunk) is important and gives us a special feeling of intimacy even though people don't really get to know each other in these kind of

    The Fall Concert took place at Chaminade Julienne Catholic High School on October 13, 2016 for the grand reopening of the auditorium that was renovated during the summer. Concert Choir, Liturgical Choir, Concert Band, Eagle Pride, Phoenix, and Vega performed on this brand new stage to celebrate this wonderful event and it would become one of the most important events in the history of CJ. Since I am a member of the Concert Choir, I was really lucky to participate in the Fall Concert and saw that first glance of the new auditorium. It is really beautiful and I believe that it really represents CJ as a whole in the Dayton area and all those who support CJ. On the night of the concert, we performed five pieces as a group including the “United…

    Walking into the auditorium, I immediately noticed that the atmosphere of the concert was completely different from that of the classical concert I attended weeks earlier. To begin with, it seemed like there was much more of an audience. Everyone seemed excited for the concert to start. As for myself, I was also excited because, on the very front of the program, it said that there was a guest artist that was going to perform with the ensemble. The performers wore more of a business casual look, some were a little more dressed up than others, but overall they looked very well dressed.…
