🎸 “Bats, Ballads & Black Leather: The Ozzy Era”

Hey Ozzie Monsters!

I hope you’re all doing amazing and feeling inspired! We’re officially at the point where our set list is coming together — and now it’s all about leveling up our performance energy and polishing those final touches on our repertoire. 💪🏾🎤🎸

We already sound great… but now it’s time to make sure we look just as awesome! The way we show up on stage can take our showcase to a whole new level of excitement and impact. 🤩✨ Yes- Fake Tattoos! Nail colors have a blast

Do you still want to do the Fake Bats?

I’ll be sharing some fun outfit ideas to spark your creativity — think bold, expressive, and uniquely YOU! And please remember to wear your Artfinix shirts as part of the look.

Let’s bring our best, show the world what we’ve got, and make this performance unforgettable! 🎶🔥

Greetings Musicians,

I had the pleasure of rehearsing with you yesterday. There were many great moments, and we were able to fine-tune several areas together. Below are a few important principles I want to bring to your awareness:

1. Confidence matters. You are playing the correct material, but some of you are second-guessing yourselves. Remember—what you play contributes to the overall sound. When you play without intention, it forces your bandmates to compensate.

2. Play your full part. Your educators are teaching you the correct repertoire. However, I’ve noticed a few of you simplifying your parts, hoping it goes unnoticed. We see it—and more importantly, you’re only short-changing your own growth.

3. Be a band, not individuals. There are more than two people on stage. Make eye contact with every member of your band. Without visual connection, the tempo can drift and the music can fall apart.

Assignment for next week:Review the Round 2 material. This…

Greetings Cast,

I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving with family and friends! Now that the week is almost ending, I want to update everyone with the new six songs on round 2.

Everyone should have roadmapped every song and started working on them by next week's class. During our next class, we will be going through each song and everything we need to know to play each song at the best we can!

See everyone next Tuesday!
