Last Wednesday saw the end of another era of local music. Over a hundred people turned up for the Rock Your World Series Wrap Party @ Timbre. It promotes the Speak Good English
movement through local music and drama. Bands like West Grand Boulevard, Plainsunset, Lunarin and many others have given their two-cents worth of advice on how they improve English as well as performing their own numbers.
The evening started of with a show reel of all the previous bands who performed at the series, followed by acoustic performances from Jack & Rai, West Grand Boulevard and Plainsunset.
Familiar tunes like West Grand Boulevard's Flights of Fancy
and Plainsunset's Johari Window filled the evening, while diners slurped free beer and enjoyed signature Timbre fare like buffalo wings and pizza: a special treat for all who contributed to the series.
It was a great cause while it lasted. Even though local bands have lost a great venue to showcase
their talent, more people have been exposed to local music and younger, newer bands. And while the Rock Your World series has come to a close, I am hopeful that bands will continue to encourage the use of good English through the power of music. Perhaps this end marks the beginning of another series.
