A strength of our performance is our knowledge of the songs. We are all clearly rehearsed in our own individual parts and know what we are supposed to be playing and when we are supposed to be playing it. Another strength is how well we managed to stay in time with each other. We didn’t have to focus too much on playing in time as we have good chemistry as a band and can easily play tight.

One weakness of our mock performance is that it seems unorganized at the start as we are all standing around and look like we have no purpose. This leads to us looking sloppy and unprofessional, and it gives the audience a bad impression of us before we’ve even started playing. This can be fixed by introducing ourselves and beginning to play as soon as we get on stage. Another weakness is our overall tuning and intonation as a band. The instruments in unison don’t sound in tune with each other which again leads us to sound unprofessional. This can easily be fixed by as a band tuning by ear to each other’s instruments and the keyboard right before the gig so there is no chance of being out of tune
