I sat in the record office looking around at the posters that cover the wall. This had never been my plan I joined this band for fun as a distraction from my important exams. In around 3 months I was hoping to be back in school again.
"Come through" Said a very mouse like lady, not the sort of person you would expect to be living at a record label.
I followed the rest of the band into the office. A big glass desk covered half the room, behind the desk sat a bald and very scary looking man, his face covered with big black rimmed glasses. I felt butterflies in my stomach, I don't know why I'm so nervous like I said it wasn't me who wanted to impress them.
"Hi, were Tribesmen. I'm Sam and I play drums" Sam pronounced as clearly as possible, however I'd known him long enough to realise how nervous he was.
"I'm Stan" announced the scary looking man, he didn't stand up he just carried on talking. "It's very unusual that the drummer introduces the band. But it is nice to see a band that doesn't appear to have one person in control. Can you introduce yourself"
I looked around hoping that me on the end would not have to introduce myself first.
"Like I said earlier I'm Sam and I play Drums" Sam butted in, much to my relief.
"I'm Alex and I play Lead Guitar"
"I'm Tom and I play Bass."
"And I'm Olivia I sing and play 2nd Guitar" I just about managed to get that out without having a nervous breakdown, what was up with me today?
Stan broke the silence, which was starting to become awkward,"Well as you know I have chosen to sign you guys because your just what the industry needs. A good band that writes their own music without a front man, or lady. I would like to make an album with you and see how it goes"
"I'm sorry it's just not what we want, we want to do it by ourselves" Sam replied just like we had planned.
Stan looked angrily at all of us "I CAN'T BELIVE YOU WOULD TURN DOWN SUCH A GREAT OPPUNITY. GET OUT MY OFFICE NOW."
Needless to say we practically ran out of the whole office.
