The New Prep Times 1 | Page 17

Zihni Kaan Baykara CAN'T WE PREPS MAKE MUSIC? The dreams of youth On the recent musical events, no prep was seen. Was it because of the incompetence or the inexperience the preps have? Or is it because of the bias of the audition? Previously, a group joined the auditions for Lise Live from prep, Parallax Error. The jury said that they had high potential, but didn’t practice enough. S.B., drummer of Parallax, says that they really didn’t have enough time to practice. He claimed that they started practicing only 1 week ago. The vocal, didn’t memorized the lyrics and looked them up from the phone on the stage. Someone else had been seen on the auditions for the Lise Live, however, the anonymous person cancelled his/her show due to stage fright. A Lise student, A.T. says that the jury is biased, and would choose grade 12’s over preps even if preps played better. The next Lise Live will let musicians to be in 2 different groups in contrast the previous, which let 3. Maybe this time, with lesser groups formed by the Lise’s, Preps can get to perform on Lise Live. 17
