Under the Dreamy Orange Light I Restrung My Guitar

July 4th, 2009 No Comments

Repetitive tasks don’t bother me, like the restringing of my guitar.  Like jogging, cooking dishes, driving from A to B, even the ripping of hundreds of compact disks that I am still doing.  Therapeutic activities open up space in my mind allowing me to think quietly, in the absence of the constant distractions.  Just me and the [...]

After the morning Good Friday Mass, our drummer Wieke and I were talking about the popular video game “Guitar Hero” and the Stand Alone Drums that you can buy and play it like a pro.  For our jamming session right after the Mass that Cynthia, Wieke , and I have attended, our guitarist Jason has brought [...]

Parallelism Between the Various Art Forms – And My Band Resumes Our Practice

February 16th, 2009 6 Comments

My life as such: our public performance in The Heeren – or rather the practice sessions leading to that one event – must have been draining to our band members.  Three months we were in hiatus.  It was the Christmas, the New Year, the Chinese New Year, and for me, much of my time has [...]

November 30th, 2008 16 Comments

Yes!  Our band finally did it at The Hereen, a 30 minutes slot playing our own original music.  I have practically put all my other plans on hold for this Nov 29 event.  Being introduced as a local Singaporean band means a lot to me, though Jason the guitarist joked that my accent is not very [...]

Lyrics of (There Were) Many Ways To Get To You

October 20th, 2008 8 Comments

Let’s recap on what I’ve set out to do in my personal time during this rather long overseas business trip.  Catch up with old friends, checked.  Become a male model for a female lingerie shop … OK, that wasn’t planned but I did promise my friend that I will blog about it.  Gosh, what was [...]

Weekend Drive-Up Jamming Session Inside PJ Hilton Hotel Room Ended Up Performing for 2 Long Lost Friends of Mine from My UK Days

October 3rd, 2008 28 Comments

I have yet another theory.  Ordinary events don’t get stuck in my mind.  Extraordinary events do.  I love to seek out opportunities to do something crazy, if circumstances permit.  To make my life a bit more memorable.  For instance, that one time after my buddy Sam and I got our miserable laughable bonus, we impulsively headed [...]
