(part two)
The festival place met us with a warm summer temperature. We welcomed the warm weather at the festival. After the soundcheck, we went to the Volga for a swim. The water was perfect. It was the first time this year when that I swam outdoors. Our performance was scheduled for 7:20 p.m. planned on 19:20. When the time had come, we played made a great show. The audience was excited!
On the next midday We started to drive home the following afternoon. I arrived home only on Monday at 8:45 p.m. and I was very tired. But everybody all of us liked enjoyed this trip. I wrote a long report about this journey in Russian. And if you would like, I can send you the link to this report.
PS If you are unable to post the correction, split your text into two corrections. Thank you!Cool. I used to be the bass player in a small American rock band. It was great fun. I can relate to your experiences on the road.
Good descriptions. I'm an American, so usually we use the 12-hour time format. A few other grammar mistakes, but otherwise good job.

Last weekend I went to the Samara region of Russia. There was a big musical festival called "MetaFest". I played at this festival with my colleagues by music bandmates. Our group is called "Табор," and it which means something like "A gypsy camp". However, we don't play gypsy music. In fact, our style is closer to acoustic rock. There are 8 people in the band. Our singer plays acoustic guitar. I play flute, sax, and clarinet. Our percussion player also sings backing vocals. Also there are is a drummer, a bass player, a cellist, an accordionist, and a solo-guitarist in our band. But the last one didn't go to the festival because he had should to play an another concert at the same time.
We travelled in a minivan VW Transporter minivan. The Samara region is about 1000 kilometres from where we live in Moscow (We all live in Moscow and Moscow Region). The place where the festival was is the same place with as the most famous bard festival in Russia called "Грушинский фестиваль". We started our trip on Friday evening at 22 o'clock 10 p.m.. Our goal was to arrive to at the place venue at 1:00 p.m., In this time which is when our soundcheck should be started was scheduled to begin. We delayed only for arrived half an hour late. The trip was long, we sang songs, talked a lot, and played in some kind of the "road" games etc. Also, I repeated my Spanish lessons and at the same time I taught for our driver some basics Spanish. She was a good student, and after 500 km she was able to understand simple Spanish sentences. For example, like these ones.
Después yo fui a la tienda para comprar comida. Luego mi marido vino a casa de su concierto y nosotros comimos juntos en casa de mis padres.0 votedSeptember 7, 20183The assault against Jair Bolsonaro
Yesterday, September 6, the Brazilian presidential candidate Jair Bolsonaro was assaulted during a public act (what was he doing?) in Minas Gerais. He was stabbed by a man who was had blended into the crowd and had to be hospitalized. (Better: He was hospitalized after being stabbed by a man who had blended into the crowd). He suffered a few internal injuries and had to go through a have surgery, but fortunately the injuries are not life-threatening.
Jair Bolsonaro is one of the most popular candidates for in Brazil's the 2018 presidential election in Brazil and is well known because of his radical ideas. He appears as the head in every pool he is leading every poll for the first round of the presidential elections that will take place next October, disregarding with the exception of the candidacy of the ex-president Lula, who will probably be prevented from running because of his conviction for corruption. Despite his apparent popularity, the pools polls also indicate that Bolsonaro would likely lose in the second round, since his rejection rate is higher than his popularity.
The man who stabbed Bolsonaro was a left-wing party member for a while, but currently he is not part of any political party.Good writing. I'm a former newspaper reporter, so I would phrase a few things differently to make them more concise or precise, but really not bad.

Before I buy bought my camera I was eager to attend different photography competitions. I used to watch see the winners' photos and I felt they have had done great job. I thought, "I want to be a winner, too." But since I got a camera my feeling has changed. I am not interested to in attending any contests anymore. Now photography is about more than winning a contest to me. It's about my feeling towards a scene, a person , an event. I express my views and affection through my photos and this is fantastic, no matter if whether judges like it or not.
Here is a photo from of my favorite food in at my favorite restaurant. ;)Good job. Watch the tense of your words and your grammar. Otherwise, great. Job. I love photography as well. :-)

I was busy in studies studying, when my friend called me. She told me that her fiancée is not answering her calls. She was weeping and it made me sad to. I tried to convince her that he must be busy, otherwise why does would he ignore you. She was feelings felt like, maybe he is not wasn't interested in her anymore and wanted to leave her.
I don't know why people have double face are two-faced. I mean if you don't want to live with someone, than then why are you are there in his/her life? Why do people do fake break their promises? In this world everyone is busy, everyone has some responsibles responsibilities, but it's all about priorities. If you love someone, care for them. You will find time for them no matter how busy your are. Sometimes I hate in being in a relationship with some, because I know being in relationship with someone will give you pain can be painful, and will snatched away your all your happiness.Good job expressing your ideas. Pay attention to word order, especially placement of pronouns.

My hometown is Nha Trang, city It's a coastal city, on the South Central Coast of Vietnam.
Nha Trang is well known for beautiful beaches and scuba diving. It is very popular with Vietnamese and foreign tourists because local people are very nice, prices are reasonable and the weather is wonderful.
Nha Trang is a quiet place. I really enjoy running along the side coast in the morning,. The air is pure and the sunshine is so gorgeous. Besides, local cuisine is the most thing you should have to experience.In addition to the wonderful climate, the local cuisine is also something you should experience. Nha Trang is well-known for seafood. In any restaurant, these All restaurants offer the a wide range of seafood, such as fish, oyster, crab, and shrimp... All of them are fresh and inexpensive. You can choose order, then they will quickly cook and serve immediately at the table.
Good job describing your hometown. In English, we usually don't add the word "city" onto the name of our hometown because the word "hometown" implies that it's a city or town. Also, since the cuisine is a new topic, I suggest making it a new paragraph. Finally, nobody can cook and serve your meal "immediately," but "quickly" works. Overall, good job.
</li></ul>0 votedAugust 6, 20182 I'm going to correct more than the grammar, but also show you how I would write this and also correct a mistake you may have had when watching the movie. Cuba Gooding, Jr. doesn't say "Show me the magic," but rather "Show me the money." (see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OaiSHcHM0PA).
Here is how I would write it, using most of your words:
Show me the Money
I was watching a movie featuring Tom Cruise, named "Jerry Maguire." In the movie, Cruise is an agent, trying to make money by helping NFL players to sign big contracts. During the movie, the actor Cuba Gooding, Jr., famously said, "Show me the money," when asking agent to convince his team to sign him to a big contract worth a lot of money. I loved his performance.Does anyone know some other cool movies they can recommend? I need to improve my English.
BTW, I can suggest many good movies. If you like inspirational sports movies like this, you might want to try these:
"Remember the Titans"
"The Rookie"
"We Are Marshall"
"Rudy"
"The Sandlot"
"Miracle"
"Battle of the Sexes"
"A League of their Own"
"Hoosiers"
"Woodlawn"
"The Blind Side"
"Radio"
"Invincible"
and the TV Show "Friday Night Lights"
I'd be glad to introduce you to more
