 n.— «However, after two months of working with the band, Greenidge was not happy with the results. He said: “I was disappointed. I didn’t think the band sounded that bad to reach to that point. I don’t know what they (the judges) were listening to, because I am coming from a musical standpoint and not just no set of gimmicks and those…what people call brang brang.
