Departmental Dinner



It has been such a long break since my last blog, more than a month! Here's the latest update on the event that I joined recently. My department came out with such a creative idea of organising Live Band performance, originally participated by the staffs from my department! Actually this had been iniatiated for more than a month ago. After one month plus of practice with my band, the performance came to reality on 29th November 2007 with 3 other great bands! I guess we all had to perform in front of a crowd of maybe 600+ people, well I forgot the number, but it was a good experience. I was the vocalist in the band, and this time I was singing the type of songs that I don't usually do. We aimed to really rock the event and did 2 rock tunes, with the last song being The Best Damn Thing (originally from Avril Lavigne) but we replaced the word 'Damn' with 'Grand' due to sensitivity issues. The musicians had a rough time on the stage especially the main guitarist and drummer. The guitarist had his guitar connection to the speakers cut off in the middle, but thank God he managed to plugged it back on time. And the drummer... man... hats off to him for staying calm and steady when one of the toms fell off! He had the bass flowing, and snare rolling as he fixed the tom! They all did such a great job! Oh, did I also mention that I had another team who was involved in Fashion Runway? We had to come out with design of our own. Not only that, we also had to handmake it ourselves! Hmm, not like I had any experience in this at all :P But we managed to pop the design out eventually. Here some pics of the event. More to come after I get pics from other cameraman, I did not take any pics with my own cam that night, was too busy running around :S

Hey, congrates...
Nice performance.. seriously...
But honest comment.. need to calibrate the mike and amplifier.. the louder (aka shouting) part tend to be on the higher end :P
Anyhow.. good show :D

Haha, thanks.
Must have been shocking to many ppl to suddenly see me like that. :P
Anyway, not the mic problem, I was kinda running out of breath at the end for running and jumping too much, could not control my voice that well. Glad that it did stir up the mood of the crowd eventually.

the sound man sucks big time. gotta run there to ask him to turn up her mic at the start of performace. it was too soft. at then end where she was shouting, the guy was not 'seng mook' enuf to turn it down.. :S:S but still, good show, others were technical errors out of our control
