Come and do it! Don't think about it! Justdo it and it will be the best week of your

life. Come with an open mind and enjoy thephenomenal experience!Brian Moloney, Sutton, Dublin.

I realised that I am more capable than Ithought - I can write lyrics and naturally

pick up things quickly. I would adviseanyone to just DO IT! - it’s fun, hard work

and it really improves you on yourinstrument and teaches you new skills

Emer Doyle, Raheny, Dublin.

Do it! It rocks" ...this is my fourth time todo the Rockschool Camp and I love it!

Fintan Moore, Athy, Co. Kildare.

Brilliant! I would recommend it to anyoneinterested in music. The best part for me

was listening back to the songs werecorded and going "Was that me?"
