Apologies, apologies
I haven’t written anything for some time… And I don’t apologise for that. Life is simply taking its share.
Now, a little overview of my past doings. A couple of weeks ago, just before going to Stockholm, during one weekend I was in a little place called Kolga with some 25 other singers - the choir I sing in Kalev Chamber choir had a singing camp. We have such weekends twice a year, the spring one is also dedicated to different happenings - smaller groups simply perform whatever they want to make others laugh with. I was in four of these small groups. The most remarkable one was the Real Estate Trio with a performance called Improvisation on Real Estate. There were two guys singing in a very low voice simple tunes so that it created a meditative atmosphere. And my task was to chant a melody (a children’s song), faint twice, slaughter a small duck with a hugh kitchen knife and finally, scream as I saw my bloody (ketchupy) hands. Nice, isn’t it!
Yesterday we had a public concert, where we had the same performances as in the camp. But this time, as there were many children in the audience, one of the hosts took my knife away just before I was supposed to slaughter a small pinguine (we lost the duck before). Well, if you have to kill a penguine without a knife - how would you do it? My solution was to make it even more brutal - with my teeth. Although, the visual effect wasn’t quite the same, it turned out alright. At first, I was quite pissed off as I couldn’t do it properly, but when I told about this my friends a bit later, I realised how stupid I was to make a fuss about that - to have a quite senseless performance that was even more absurd without one of the key elements did not make a lot of sense. Especially after having drunk quite a lot of Jägermeister
