ミュージックイベント

先週の金曜日に開かれた、募金をかねた音楽イベント。A charity music event was held on the last Friday僕はギターとして出させてもらいました！I joined it as a guitarist!彼が一緒に弾いた友達ですHe is my mate to play with.スカジャンを着る、と言いだしたので、僕も急遽着ることに。。。（借りました）Suddenly he said he would wear Yokosuka Jumper, so I decided to wear it... (I borrowed it by the way)そしてこれがバンドの演奏のときのものです。And this is the picture of the other band that I joined. 向かって左端で赤いギターを弾いているのが僕です。The one who plays the red guitar in your left hand side is me. やはり２００人も人がいると緊張がひどい。。。Anyway, 200 people put me extreme pressure on me...この日も授業はありましたが、とても集中できたものではありませんでした。I had class on that day, but how could I concentrate on it?激しいプレッシャーでミスがかなり出て、演奏の後は二度と舞台にはあがらない、と誓いたくなったほど。Extraordinary pressure drove me to make many mistakes, so, after my play, I was as embarrassed as I swore that I would never play on the stage.でもイベント自体はかなり楽しめましたBut the event itself was quite enjoyable!そしてこの人がすごい！And this man is outstanding!ケインパーソン（ギター担当）はプロのアーティストで子供向けのポップソングを作っている人です。Kane Parson (Guitar) is a professional artist, who creates pop songs which are intended for children. やはりプロの演奏はすばらしかった！As I expected, his performance was wonderful!音を出すのも切るのも本当に正確He can freely and precisely make the sound vibrate and muteそしてかなり気さく～～～And he is quite friendly~~イベント全部おわった後で握手やら肩車やら　After the event, he shook my hands, rode me on his shoulders...wそして最後はこの人。今回のイベントの企画者さんです！Finally, this is the man who organized this event!今回のイベントを立ち上げ、メンバーを集め、学校側に草案提出、新聞社への広告依頼、資金集めのソーセージ販売など、多くの仕事をこなしてきましたHe has done a lot of works for this event such as launching the idea of an event, collection of members, submitting proposals to the school, commissioning a newspaper corporation to advertise this event, and the sales of sausages as fundraising.その人が、イベントの最後に、背筋に電撃が走るようなかっこいいギターソロをブルースの曲で披露してくれました！At the end of the event, this guy performed a wonderful guitar solo, which made me feel like getting hit by lightning, in his blues play!盛り上がりも最高潮～The event reached its peak!　彼は最後に感動して泣いていました。wAt the very end, he was so impressed that I burst into tears今回のイベントは全く新しい企画だったため、困難がたくさんありましたがThis event was the first trial in the history of out school, so we have faced a lot of setbacks僕自信もギタリストとして、企画に携わった一人として、一皮むけたと思います。Yet I reckon I could achieve the further level as a guitarist and one of the organizing members.企画者の彼にもう一度、こころからお礼を言いたいです。I would like to thank him once more with my heart.ありがとうThank you very much
