Battle of the Bands<br />
Bands rocked Garden International School (GIS) at the<br />
annual Battle of the Bands event.<br />
Groups from GIS, REPS and St Andrew's played original<br />
songs and covers in GIS's newly-refurbished Main Hall.<br />
Fans cheered and danced as the musicians took to the<br />
stage, and produced some impressive guitar solos and<br />
singing.<br />
Judges included Mr Dom (Head of Secondary at<br />
REPS), Ms Jill (freelance punk rocker) and HyoJung<br />
(a Grade 8 pianist who recently finished her IB<br />
studies at GIS).<br />
After the judges had added together their scores, the winner was<br />
White Jack, who won an 8-hour recording session at Karma Sound Studio in Bang<br />
Saray (www.karmasoundstudios.com). Runners-up were Alphabeat and in third spot were<br />
Apollo. (The runners-up were given a five-hour session at Karma.<br />
Apollo also won the prize for best<br />
original song.<br />
Hot dogs sold at the event will<br />
go towards Operation Smile,<br />
which helps children born with<br />
cleft palates. So far the school<br />
has raised more than 30,000<br />
baht – more than enough to<br />
change several children’s lives.
