It was really nerve racking because we’ve never been on the radio before, but we only had to play 1 minute of one song.
We played the new song which we’ve been practising called Cantaloupe Island.

We were on the radio to try and promote some of our concerts which are to raise money for our tour to Beijing in August!

We all set up, and tuned our instruments and then the woman walked in with one microphone! It was quite funny, but it made us sound flat. =( My Dad recorded it for my Mum and my Grandparents. Apparently the whole school was listening to it so when we went back to lessons everyone was like, “was that live?” “Your really good!” And stuff like that! It made me feel proud and reminded me why I play my flute in groups and concerts and stuff! =D
I still can’t get over the fact that I’m going to China and playing flute and we were just live on the radio.

We were supposed to play 1 minute of the song like I said but the presenter didn’t want us to stop so we played the whole 5 minute song! The presenter then couldn’t stop talking about how good we were afterwards which was funny. Plus people were still phoning in about our performance 10 minutes afterwards!

It was an amazing opportunity and that’s one more thing I can cross off my list of things I want to achieve!

Have you ever been on the radio? And what do you want to achieve in your life?
