6. What did Alex ask Kate to send him? 
7. What do Alex and Kate want to get from a live performance? 8. Who needs time to make up one’s mind to go to the gig? Why?
Work in pairs. Get ready to ask each other the questions to fill in the missing information.


Work in new pairs. Choose a music event you’d like to invite your friend to. Make up a conversation using the Help box. Act it out.
