8 Feet There

I had a great night! Thanks for having us Yani!

My head is still singing and my 2 feet are still tapping from my first 8 Feet performance last night to the most welcoming audience of Tongues of Fire in Brisbane. Following an afternoon of first-timer nerves I met up with my fellow Feeters as “special guests” at a Tongues of Fire rehearsal. We were warmly welcomed into their fold and enjoyed singing ( and tribal dancing) with them, before ending the evening with our performance.It was most exciting, as not only was it my 8 feet debut, but also the debut of 3 new songs for the group. Our first, “My Happiness” was arranged for us by our Mike, and it was wonderful to see many of our audience clapping and singing along with us. We followed this by the beautiful “Beautiful Boy” which brought emotions to the front, not only for our audience but for us as well. A very moving song, sung to some of our own beautiful boys in the audience. A change of pace followed with (my personal favourite) “Is This Love” which got the crowd grooving in their seats.  We finished our set with the classic “That’s the way”.I couldn’t have asked for a warmer audience for my first performance - nothing can describe the feeling of  singing to a crowd who are all smiling and singing along with you enthusiastically. The first of many to follow, I hope!
