Rock and Roll Camp: What The Bands Have to Say

Many teenagers dream about being in a rock band, to be famous and have everything they want, but the teens here at the Rock and Roll Camp have different reasons for showing their colors: Friends, new experiences and the undying urge to rock. Four different bands were interviewed, and each different group each had something different to say about Rock and Roll Camp.
The first band we interviewed didn't have a name yet, but its members were Jacki Penny and Jon Oravec. The unnamed band plays the "shoe gaze" music genre and has been compared to the band My Bloody Valentine. Are you hoping to see this dynamic duo at the show? You will.
"We'll be playing 'mos def'!" Says Jon Oravec, who in short is saying that they will be playing most definitely.
The next band we interviewed, named All Eyes Fixed, had many opinions. Edward Cullens on bass said his favorite thing about the Rock and Roll Camp was how everybody knows the music, and the musical style of All Eyes Fixed is classic Heavy Metal. You can plan on seeing All Eyes Fixed perform with many other bands at the Rock and Roll Camp Showcase.
The next band, quaintly named "Guitarded" by members Jessie Oravec and Lauren McCarthy, are breaking out of the mold by playing alternative style music, with Jessie on the keyboard and Lauren playing the violin. When it comes to their favorite part of the camp, Lauren jokingly says "Lunch" while Jessie says "Randy and Skylar". Guitarded will also be performing.
The last band we interviewed had many things to say about Rock and Roll Camp. Members Naomi Thompson and Evan Hilliard say that their favorite thing about camp are the people, Addison Schulberg enjoys the music the most, Molly Murry enjoys retrieving Addison's lost picks while Jesska Roesch enjoys Counselor Wilson the most. What's their view on the camp?
"Totally do it! It's the most fun I've ever had!" Says Addison.
"It gives you new experiences." Adds Naomi. This also nameless band will also be performing in the Rock and Roll Showcase.
After hearing the opinions of the bands, we interviewed Elizabeth Scheeler.
"I think rock and roll camp is great, it's a blast seeing all the kids coming and seeing their hard work paying off during performances." She says. With this being the second year of Rock and Roll Camp, about 80% of last year's students have returned.
What has made Rock and Roll Camp so successful? It was the efforts of the bands and counselors and the never ending urge to rock.
