Yesterday was Talentime nite in INTI. Its sorta a bad mixture of Malaysian Idol and prom nite. I won’t start about the first 1-1/2 hours of the show just for the fact that it sucks and heavily plagued by bad P.A system. What you expect from a RM3 ticket rite?

I’ll continue onwards about the other half of the show which showcase the better half of the solo performances and group performances. Before moving on to the group performances i just wanna say, Karen and co, you 2 rocked. Torn was awesome. Very well executed. There were in total 6 bands performing. And all 6 exhibited real quality rock. Though the P.A system was crappy, they still manage to give a good show. Kudos to them.

What pisses me off is that half of the people in the hall walked out during the group performances / the rock show. I’m like WTF?!?!? See thats the reason why local rock bands dont get the recognition they seriously deserve, bastards and bitches that can’t appreciate how much hard work, heart and soul they pour into this devine artform called rock. During the performances there was clearly a division among the crowd: The faggots and the rockers. Its not like we rockers (yes i am one) dont appreciate good singing or vocal talents, we gave really good cheers to the solo performances, most of them were pretty good. A rock band is a collection, all for one and all that crap. If you think playing synonymously together is easy, well you better get your head straight, its not. Walking out during a performance is the worst insult you could throw at a person or a group. To make matters worst a bunch of bimbos sitting behind me was heavily criticising a guy who was showcasing some really awesome classical guitar work. Well biatches, pack up your make up and your dinky toy decorated mobile phones, go back to your pink room laden with backstreet boy posters and taiwanese pretty boy cds if you think that guy wasnt talented, cos he fucking rocked. I couldnt catch the dude’s name, the P.A system was that bad, but he performed Cancion Del Mariachi excellently. he didnt fumbled once and he gave a really good performance even though half of the audience were spoilers. What a good sport.

Personally three bands made a real impact to me. Since the P.A. system is an utter disaster no one knew their band names. However, One band really shoved it to the fags. The lead guitarist/vocalists was a short, stumpy, plump guy with long hair, a goatee and wore a white cap. While the rest of the band members was tuning their instruments a lot of people started to leave (typical beng and lian chinese, fucking scum!) The dude in the cap came up to the mic and said “Wah! Its ok we came here not to enter them, we came here to entertain ourselves!”. We (Rockers) went wild and gave awesome cheers. Some guys at the back started booing, and the dude retaliated by shouting explicits. Thats showing them who had bollocks. Then suddenly silence and the guys immediately transformed into what i would say is the best performance of all. They were awesome man. The drummer of the band was really something else. Before they started he gave an awesome solo performance. They played 2 songs, the tune and the lyrics are lingering in my mind but i cant seem to be able to dig out the title of the songs.

Another band gave a really good rendition of Incubus Talk Show on Mute and Megalomania. The vocalist mimics Trent’s real well. Either he has good vocal talents or he can really imitate, but the whole band gave a real good show. The third one played Incubus as well. They played New Skin and Beware! Criminal. They were really good. The drummer and the guitarist was epic! Though the vocalist was a bit weak for my tastes. I think everyone should know that the music Incubus play which is a wild mix of nu-metal, blues, jazz, soul & funk is technically very difficult to play. Its very taxing for the drummer especially due to the transition from hard to soft which is very frequent in Incubus’s songs. Well all in all everyone in the group performances gave a real good show. They played and sang with their hearts. That’s what matters

Inti Rockers… Rock On!

The rest ah beng and ah lians who couldn’t at least give a decent cheer… go back to your pity little existence and suck up to your pretty boy cd’s or feng tau music. Inti rockers… live long and prosper!

Watched F1 lately? No? Too bad, CSI or 24 can take a back seat, cos as weird as it seems there’s so much drama going on in F1. At Indianapolis seven teams boycotted and did not even participated the starting grid. The drama unfolds further with recent events that FIA has brought a law suit to Michelin and the 7 teams. And I stand here proudly supporting what the 7 teams, including Sauber Petronas did. Its about time someone did something about the current FIA chief : “Mossy Mosley” and the unholy Ferrari - Mosley truce.

Last wednesday was our Business Management Presentation. Though there were some slight hiccups and leadership problems within our group we pressed on and brought forth our very interesting topic which is “Linguistic Problems in our Society”. Everyone worked hard, we even prepared a little montage to show how the problem in real-life. Lets just say our presentation rocked. Everyone did very well and i’m very happy and very proud for my group members.

Thanks Guys!

Been hanging out at Central Park with a fellow hostel-mate. My usual ‘wee-hours of the morning’ yum cha sessions are back on schedule.

Dont you hate it when you’re halfway between sound asleep and wide awake? Kinda like having someone who wants to kill you but takes his own sweet time doing it. I’ve been very pissed off with myself about it lately. Its either i wake my ass up or i get back to sleep. I’ve been having that frequently lately. Can’t explain why. Might be because that jackass of a roommate of mine comes back at 4 or 5 am in the morning, switching on the lights, making all sorts of different noises. Might be because i just cant stand the goddamn aircon. Might be a lot of things. Its bad enough not having much sleep, i doubt i’d like to be an insomniac. My noodles are as dead as it could be already without the help of insomnia. Fuck la.

Bintang is outside knocking on my door now. This concludes another entry and i shall go onwards to another Yum Cha adventure!
