Chapter 17: Operasie Orkeskamer

The band is shocked when they see how messy the room is. They get to work and Mr Marx tells them to leave any unneeded benches outside for the caretaker to move to the storage. He also tells them that they have permission from the headmaster, Mr van Schalkwyk, to use the room for the rest of the year as long as it is clean. Marx then asks if they plan to win the competition; after all, the winning band’s school receives a cash prize. During their clean-up, Liezl finds an old CD-player. When they plug in the speakers, the sound of a Beatles song fills the air. Bongi grabs a sheet-music stand and pretends it’s a microphone. Then some Elvis plays and Zane does a dancing impression of Elvis Pressley. Tiaan and Liezl had to sing Sonny and Cher’s I’ve Got You, Babe!” and Tiaan could not contain his laughter. After their fun, they get to work on painting the music room. The next afternoon they expect to be done.
