ROCKTAGON!!!

As our math teacher walked in the class on an apparently normal school day,what we did not know was what was going to happen in that period.She started teaching us polygons,i generally hate geometry but always liked learning new stuff.So she gradually taught us all the polygons..my partner at that time-Snehal,and I were as usual in our own world talking about random stuff.We wished to make a rock band and were thinking about its name.At that time our teacher said octagon and from nowhere suddenly i almost shouted at the top of my voice-''ROCKTAGON!!''. Snehal completely flipped over the name and we knew that if we were to make a band then there could be no better name than Rocktagon.This was on our minds for the entire school day.We planned about the prospective band members and their positions..Snehal was to be the drummer and I the lead guitarist. We also made its design,you can check out the rough design of Rocktagon at the bottom of this page on the right corner.The thought of performing in front of a crowd was running through our minds..crowds head banging,girls going crazy,and wanting an encore(repeat performance).We also decided that our first performance would be at our school during the fun and fair festival.. :)
Whenever i think deeply about the chance of starting a band i get misty-eyed.When we thought of this name,our so called ''friends'' started criticising our idea.They said there is no career in music and this plan is going to flop miserably..another reminder to these ''friends''-ROCKTAGON is and always will be our passion and not our career.
I dont know when this dream of our will come true or whether it will come true at all,but I will always remember the incident behind this innovative name and shall count it as one of my most memorable school incident.
I dedicate this post to my pal and Rocktagon co-founder Snehal Patel :)
