These 2 girlies are my bestest friends.. You girls ROCK my SOCKS off

People tell me 3's a bad number

But not with dany Jeanette and me

We rock the socks off any Duo

And are stronger than any team

We laugh together, cry together

Eat pastizies together, die our hair together

And when one of us is sad or down

The other 2 can pick her off the ground

3 peas in a pod, or more appropriately 3 stooges

3 of the coolest chicks and sometimes 3 of the biggest loosers

Were more than friends were sisters

We're more than bestest mates

We're ok when we're separate

But together were bloody great.

About Renee Cassar

Hey guys, well bands usually put there bio in here but I’m not a band and I’ve never written a Bio, so instead of placing myself in the third person and writing things like Renee cassar has been playing for 3 years and performing at such and such places, I just thought I would tell you how it is… I’ve been writing ever since I can remember, I can write about anything from the beach and waves and stars and eyes to feelings to the way people treat you when there not happy or how you feel when you cry.. I write to get my feelings out, it helps me look at the situation from a birds eye view, like I don’t have to be me anymore, I can escape for a while and judge the situation like I’m someone else. I have at least 30 books filled up with scribbles, quotes and poems and stories, I’m sure god shot ink through my veins when he created me… at 17 I never considered singing well I had thought about it, though i had been chucked onto the tennis court and it is not in my nature to give up without a fight … My music teacher had other ideas as to my music ability and cast me as lead role in the school musical after singing twinkle twinkle little star . This came as a shock to me, I didn’t think I could sing let alone in front of 3000 people. So intent on not to stuffing it up, I decided to take some singing lessons so when the opening night came along I would be prepared. Opening night I was extremely nervous and I had virtually lost my voice I placed honey mixed with hot water, an asma pump, salt water, pineapple juice and every other voice remedy known to man neatly at the back of the stage. The minute I stepped out and sang I realized I had been chasing the wrong dream the hole time. So soon after I gladly put down my tennis racquets and picked up a guitar. A $70 Ashton great little thing did the job quite well…The fact that I began my new dream at the age of 18 doesn’t faze me or that what I want is as far fetched as me typing this from the moon :) I just know where I want to be and that is sitting on a stage with my guitar playing one of MY songs to an audience and THEM singing it back to ME. I have had a vocal chord operation and plenty of other financial set backs, I think god knows I love a challenge cause he sure doesn’t want to make things easy for me... Now I’m back on track my voice is 100% healed, I’ve started up a band wagon and you guys are all welcome to jump on ..Don’t let anyone tell you that your dreams arnt reachable and that you should be realistic about your life because it’s too hard or to out of reach. The inability to think beyond the basic 9-5 is a disability in itself. You don’t always get what you want but half the fun is just in trying, so that’s what I’m here doing.. well I better be off before you guys get too bored but I would love to see some of you at my gigs when I get more ill post them up ? Remember if you “believe in the power of believing” you cant go wrong.. And guys if you want to turn ure dreams into reality you have to first wake up ;) xoxoxoxox Renee
