I was walking those poor looking corridors of my school and a poster caught my attention. "Stage4you" was written at the top. It appeared my University was organizing a music show. The main price is giving a concert at Juwenalia ( it is a students festival organized in major cities in Poland) in Warsaw 2013. I thought "nice" but didn't seriously think of applying. A week later I got a notification on Facebook which said "Today at 23.59 we close registrations to the Stage4you program". So I'm checking the time - it's 22.30 . And of course I was supposed to study at the time but procrastinating is what I do best so I decided to apply just for fun. I sent my application 10minutes before the deadline. I even managed to forget about that the very next day. And while I was on my way back home - BANG! I got a call from the casting manager. "You got in to the next casting! Are you free on Thursday next week?".haha! It was so funny! Anyway, I went for the second casting that was to be a live performance in front of cameras and jury. There were SO many awesome bands there. And i went just as a solo artist so it was just me and my guitar. And I was the last one to perform at that day. Many people already left when it was my turn. But there was one band who stayed. Awesome boys from Bydgoszcz regions. from what I remember. You can check them out over here!

the first question I was asked by jury was "After hearing all that heavy sounds today (most band played hard rock music) how do you think you'll do?" I have to admit it was a wonderful question. Really. So I just replied "Honestly? After all I heard today I have no idea how'd I get here but I must have some kind of a charm if you wanted me here today on this stage" They laughed. I played two songs. One of them was a rather peaceful composition of mine that I wrote in polish. The other was a cover of the song "The one that got away" by P!nk. The one they chose to show was mine. I have to admit I'm not really satisfied with what happened there but let's say it's all right. I'm sorry it's not possible to get the other song on a video (at least for now) 'cos I feel it went MUCH better. But here is the "Bez Ciebie (Without you)".

And some pictures! :D
