happy new year mate to you.
re accent.
cheers.
my fun actually is doing vocs in lots of different voc
styles. not just cockney.
ive done everything from straight church choirs thru,..
mor,blues,croon,heavy metal etc etc plus gilbert n sullivan...
ie whatever the song calls for.
sometimes the vocs work other times not.
you should hear me doing white xmas lol.
havent done that croon for ages. dunno if i can do it now.
it was lots easier 10 yrs ago and before frankly cos age is
starting to hit me bad. so now have to work harder at it.
in summary any voc is just loads of fun irrespective of genre.
in my own music collection i got everything from old jazz thru
gershwin thru classic rok thru van halen n zz n the ventures n shadows etc etc.
i just love all kinds of music.

heres a good joke at my expense you might get a fun giggle out of mate.
years back i was in a rock band. plus a normal church choir.
by day i was a puter engr in button down suits.
by night doin the rok gig...it was leather gear rather than suits.lol.
nobody at work new bout my "other life".

well heres the joke of it all mate on me.
on a rok gig i look out in the audience and there are
2 women from work !!
the look on their faces was hilarious.
total shock n amazement. priceless.
cos all they had seen was the puter engineer side at work.
but the jig was up.
they came up to me after n said "your a real jekyll n hyde"..lol.

next day it got around at work. but all good fun razzing etc.
i felt like hiding in the loo.
moral...dont do gigs in the same town as you work the button down day gig..lol.

in summary my belief is you only come this way once.
so might as well have as max fun as you can.
frankly i'll be blasting me amp out n singin in the old folks home at 95
if i last that long..lol.
