As usual,
I had great deal of fun performing at The Star Vista on monday and wednesday.
Today was my last set and it was very much enjoyable as the monday's set.

Monday's set...
I felt like i was nervous.
My solos and runs were rushed and the ideas were congested.
I was moving around a lot hahaha i like that.
Like crazy liddat.

Today's set
I felt like  I was nervous.
But I relaxed during my solos and managed to do one on the spot that I really liked!
Can't wait to watch the video.

I just got comments that my tone was good on monday (although i felt that my solo and technique was lacking). Thanks for the encouragement!
Really happy to hear that people like my tone. =3

Okay, I love the chemistry in this band.
We gotta work on stamina, i felt really tired towards the end.
It's only 8 songs.

Good job nonetheless!
Videos on youtube!

Hope we can get more gigs and get this band out.

Serene improving in her english songs, yessssssssssssssssssss

So there was once I was told my solos sound too like me.

Repetitive? 

Saw it as a bad thing initially and tried to work it out.

And it turns out now that i see a little good in it.
I try expanding my vocabulary.
and i come back to the point,
i still sound like myself.

so is it a good thing?
probably.
it's my sound.

Just take my heart

Was learning Mr Big's Just take my heart.

Just the solo because the starting seemed so impossible.
Plucking urghh.

Then i was about to break for lunch when i realised i should watch how other people did it.
And then i realised i was playing the later half in the wrong octave.
And i don't have enough frets...
I only have 22, which is good enough.
But the song demands 24 haha.

Oh Paul Gilbert.

I can still try to do this solo
but it'll sound a lil horrible.

It's been getting annoying that people are rejecting gigs that are not paying.
I mean of course i would love to get paid.

They say that they had better gigs that paid.
Please tell me how often you get paid gigs?
I would be happy to play a gig somewhere.

A token of appreciation will do.

While it's another good thing that musicians demand to be paid for gigs.
I can't see why i shouldn't play if they're not paying.

Unless it's my job to play.

Gig over!

Kind of enjoyed playing with them and myself.
Although Serene and Tsao emceeing it was awkward.
Yes I like this band, we do have the chemistry.

How can you not love two keyboardists

Ya i enjoyed myself although it was a very buang gig.
But i hope none of the band members thought of it at the start as a buang gig because of all the stuff that has happened.

1- We're not paid
2- We have to carry our own audio equipment and our instruments
3- We have to set up everything and pack up everything on our own.

I'm not quite satisfied with 3.
They said i was the most hyper while performing
I thought i looked stupid, or would look stupid.
I really wasted all my energy that i'm so tired so i got a drink and sat down in the circle.

Then we got shouted at for slacking i suppose.

I mean ya la should help out.
But i tired leh, not a valid reason.
But i diva leh, not a valid reason.
What to do, suck thumb then just go help la.

I don't like all the negativity that happened while packing up.
What the hell man why the rage.
Relax la.

Then i was left alone to jaga some things...
Nevermind la.

I don't want to be angry at all this small things
I wanna be happy that i had fun at the gig,
laughing at all the screw ups.
I always thought that laughing would look so candid on video/pictures.

I think maybe it does help.

But i was really enjoying myself.

And what saved the day was probably that point 3 was half done and the musicians could go home straight from sentosa instead of returning to SP to pack. (sorry poor first batch boys)

am having nice supper now and looking forward to next gig!
