Gig @ MBS!

Marc & Ron's Law school, Stansfield college organised a fund-raising event for their school. Their plan was booking a bistro bar with free flow liquor, drinks and a band.

We were the band! We consists of Marc, Ron, Daryl, Felicia, Melody, Sam and myself :)

Marc & I were the guitarists and main singers. Ron was the bassist and singer too. Felicia & Melody are our best singers for that evening. Sam sang one item "The Man Who Can't Be Moved."

Our jam sessions were all sponsored by them and we had a total of like 8 jam sessions of 2 hour each.

The last jam session was a cock-up. The uncle of Boon's jamming studio cocked-up our booking and Marc got real angry. I remember his worst outburst at him was "What the hell la uncle! You stupid or what?!" I was coiling my mono-jack halfway when that vociferation stopped me in my tracks. Haha!

Anyway, the actual event was a super impromptu one with us getting complaints from the store beside us saying we were too loud and all...So Marc decided to re-arrange our song list...but in the end, we whacked all the loud songs too...Haha!

Yup, on with the pictures...

Matthaeus, Hong Hwee & Myself :)

Matthaeus and Hong Hwee came down to support me! Haha. I was so touched :) Haha. Anyway, we started late...so they sat there and waited for like 30 minutes before we actually started our first song...which was kinda cui...Haha.

They left after our 2nd or 3rd song...Haha. Understandable la...I would've left too...Haha!

Both of them were great singers...they had superb tones. I think they were kinda left out most of the time while we were busy trying to put our music parts together...Haha. But yeah, they're really nice people.

Overall, we had tons of fun doing all the impromptu stuff there...The crowd was all rocking on for more. Haha.

I must say that our rehearsals were much better sounding than the real thing. HAHA!

As we were walking to the location - Me & Daryl - we also admitted that we didn't put our all into the songs. Haha. I didn't memorize the lyrics, Daryl didn't memorize some songs, etc...Haha. Marc & Ron? Sama la...Organizer like that we also la...All impromptu kings. Hahaha!
