Finally, the program for the charity event “Music for Hope” is out. I was just about to wonder if our band’s slot is still on, or off. It will be a whole day event at Heeren (Singapore) and our band will perform right in between the last leg of the show (Nov 29, 7pm), right [...]

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

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 [...]

By the time you read this, Cynthia and I may have reached PJ Malaysia to meet up with Wieke for a band practice. Nothing is going to slow us down for our November performance at the Heeren, Singapore. Not even the temporary relocation of Wieke. I have a theory I concocted decades ago and it [...]

Gearing Up For Our Band’s First Public Performance – No Eye Candy Live @ Heeren
September 13th, 2008 12 Comments
Last month, after band manager Selrol and I met up with the representatives from a non-profit organization, we were excited to have signed ourselves up for an upcoming performance at The Heeren Shops, Orchard. I wish life is as simple as that. First, drums will not provided. Second, our lead guitarist Jason will be on reservist. [...]

Hella Good Is Hella Tough! Here Is Our Voodoo Mix
August 11th, 2008 7 Comments
I did not wake up this morning and went, “Ah, I am going to make a video blog today”. Our new drummer Wieke has made a request to play No Doubt’s “Hella Good” as she wishes to – in her own words – implement some of the ideas or techniques into our band’s materials. So [...]

Montage of Our Studio Jamming Session – Aug 1st

OK. I shall let the pictures do the talking. Though we named our band as “No Eye Candy”, I am pretty sure the reality is far from what it literally means – with me as the exception of course. A big thanks to our ‘band manager’ Selrol for taking these great pictures. Enjoy! PS. For the new [...]

Stripping My Own Song into Just Four Lines and an Orange Lit Valve That Glows Within – My First V-blog (Prelude) Episode 6
July 23rd, 2008 13 Comments
If you still don’t get it, don’t be concerned. Most don’t. I am terrible in communication. Next week the video should be out – baring any unexpected exciting events that may appear from nowhere, that I am compelled to blog about, that push my most-don’t-get-it mini-series schedule to yet another week. After I finished working [...]

So We Jammed Again: Of Heavy Load and Long hours of Post Production (July 11)
July 14th, 2008 9 Comments
If people can blog about baking cookies a hundred and one times and still read fresh, let me see if I can write something fresh for our jamming journal. While waiting for our 2nd guest drummer to get back to us, we continue to explore the possibility and to learn from our 1st guest drummer Wieke. [...]

No Eye Candy’s 1st Female Guest Drummer (July 4)
July 5th, 2008 3 Comments
Ever since our 2nd drummer has decided to spend more time with his new baby - which our band No Eye Candy fully understand and support - for the last two months, we scrambled to look for guest drummers to jam with us, to explore the possibility. Guitarist Jason called in his friend for help and so did Bassist [...]
