agreed. but despite all the difficulty, playing in a band is great fun! it's much better compared than being a bedroom guitarist. you actually feel the song in you. i wouldn't trade that experience for anything else now!

ah yeah, but honestly speaking, i get angry with my drummer quite frequently. but that band ain't gonna be disbanded anytime soon, coz it's unique. all the bandmembers are in another band comprised of their friends too, and i hope to find one when i go to college.

meh, my band would embarass ourselves flat playing in a gig like that!

dude, that seems like a great gig! although the sound was pretty screwed up, but i could hear and feel the energy from your playing

i could only hear your guitar. great tone man.

you guys should look at mine. got chip summore.

damn it, that looks fjooking great!

wow halfstack from parents? i can only dream...

bleh, havent touched my guitar for so long since college started.

which is why micheal angelo doesn't have a very large fanbase.

hey guys i'm still alive. been very busy lately!

damn, i don't think i can come this saturday.

the shop is crazy.

played with a RM6k Ovation electro - acoustic belonging to my Physics lecturer.
met a super amazing guitarist who was in my class but I didn't know he can play so well.

the convo went something like this..

I saw him playing the Ovation, fingerpicking, so I asked

"you a classical player?"

"not really. electric actually. fingerpicking easy what."

"what type of songs?"

"heavy metal."

"metallica, megadeth, BLS blablabla?"

"prefer megadeth. the older one when friedman was in it. don't really like pitrelli and the new megadeth with poland."

"oh. one of my fav megadeth songs is tornado of souls."

he belted out the whole solo right in front of my eyes. on an acoustic.

I came.

and then he told me he was trying to learn jazz, his favorite guitarist being a brazilian. he showed me 4-finger tapping. a backing track started playing. he began to shred and improvise on it.

I came. twice.

Oh, so the guy who came twice at my playing was you ar???

Damn, how long has he been playing then?

5 years. totally self taught through videos, according to him, with a little piano theory he picked up when he was younger.

w00t haven't posted here in a loooooooooong time! been reallyyyy busy.

anyway, just to let you guys know that i'll be performing with my college choir at sunway lagoon ampitheater on merdeka eve! anyone who's free can come and see.

anyway, i haven't played much songs on my guitar lately, i prefer to just play some scales... i think i wanna relearn from scratch.

free event methinks, it's part of the merdeka countdown celebration!

we'll be singing a medley of patriotic songs, and also my lecturer's own english songs.

maybe, our lecturer said there's a possibility they might call us up to lead the singing after the countdown.

haha you people.. want me to kena tangkap ar?

+3kk!, yes.. performing there, ambang merdeka thing. should be there.

hey now when i think of it, metallica can be a good idea.. and say that there was a sabotage..

lol.. it's a choir la! there's an ensemble playing the backing track too, but i'm not in it. the lead guitarist is super good though, observe him if you have the chance. dunno what amp are they gonna give.

anyone was at ambang merdeka yesterday?

led_zep_freak got my number out of nowhere so i was pretty surprised when he called to introduce himself. took some time for me to register the info in my head, heh.

sorry ledzep, i couldn't go out to give you tickets. really sorry. =\

great, it feels really fun because the whole band lineup was so good.

i wish!

i meant, the ensemble lineup for my choir.
