00-Showcase notes - BPM - 999
how to break it up1. Different tempos
2. Some musical motifs from the songs
3. Perhaps a bit of soloing on one of the songs
4. How can you alter the vocals?
5. Need to tidy up the guitars as well
6. Sort shirts
Ideally have the vocal sounds change a bit, guitar sounds a bit and some riffs in there as well
