Well, double take attempted the biggest jazz concert by a Jazz Duo ever tried by Malaysians last week.. whats more to say about them... their Christmas albim, probably amongst the top christmas albums this year.. other i would recommend is leaonard Tan's Christmas Album.. both fantastic musicians, and Leonard + personality and looks.. whats more to be said? haha! Mia and roger recorded this album like pure acoustics do it... sort of like Tuck and Patti material... i have to admit, this duo had always played like the books, sounding like what the originals do, mia would do the exact vocals as patti would do and roger would do the same licks as tuck does in his songs... now where does that bring them? But.. musicians evolve as time passes.. and mia has done tremendously well in this Christmas album.. very very MIA for once i say..and Roger attempted mixture of great guitarist licks.. definitely a recommended album.. I would watch out for this duo in the future.. they might be the bridge to bringing up the local music scene.. and i back them up all the way! cheers double take!  

No Black Tie.. newest pub concept in town. Pricey, but quality sound and quality environment. A room with less than 1/4 people smoking.. theatre like stage, and wood base walls. Fantastico! That was where i was last night. Apart for being charged RM 20 for cover, i guess the rest was ok. It was for support of local musicians anyway. Line up was called Acoustic night featuring Endorsed Malaysian Godin Players Albert Sirimal, Richard Lim, & Gerard Singh, as well as Viji on his Takamine and Julian Mokhtar with his handmade steel guitar. Now what more can one ask for then a session like this? fully acoustic.. no drum machines, no drums, no programming, just the player and his instrument. All musicians covered originals and covers... Fantastic mood! Again, No Black Tie has started off with a concept where musicians can plan their gigs there, charge cover, and profit share with the pub. How fantastic right. The turnout yesterday was pretty fine, pretty much everyone enjoyed. Fantastic....hope that there will be a session like this again. oh btw, Mia Palencia and Roger are planning the biggest Jazz concert ever planned by a Jazz duo and they are planning to get into the Malaysian Book of Records. Its a concert not too miss. For more details, log into www.brabonsentertainment.com I think thats the website.. if u cant get in, let me know... and i can go back to my email to research for the site url. Anyway its this Saturday so get ur tickets quickly.. Will blog about Double Take's Christmas Album tomorrow! adios people!  

Malaysia never fail to suprise people with the biggest stories ever..?? Here's the latest.. STRIP search...right in the Malaysian Police Jail... so what do you guys think? madness? or stupidity? whichever, is it necessary? Anyway, i kinda think that this kind of incident only beshames our nation. At the end of the day, people will have less respect for the police force...not get more afraid of them. Instead, once somebody comes voicing out a retaliation against the force, others will stand up and come against them. At the end of the day, the goverment has to do something.. but what? Well, as i know, the government is recruiting bachelor degree holders into ASP's posts.... i believe this is a good move as it will increase the brains in the force.. at least these ASP's can help plan stuff and prevent incidents of such from happening.. My question is? will the government be able to crush corruption? as if there was still corruption, these graduate ASP's will not make a difference. They probably have to lower their heads to the superiors at the end of the day! hierarchy of power u know? Anyway, i think the BPR should disguise themselves as plain clothes officers and nab the police red handed whilst planning to take corruption. Then there will be no place to run and no place to run. Non-th-less, my views normally stays within this window... But it would be good to have a change dont u think? As much as i do not like the law and order in Singapore, at least they are clean and you do not mess with the authorities. At least people are well protected and there is no abuse of power. I mean at least thats what i think.... anyway, have to get back to work! I'll be playing a couple of songs for my alumni dinner on Sunday and i've yet to memorize the lyrics of the songs i am playing! dumb dumb me! adios amigos! btw if ur reading this..leave a comment or maybe just a tag... cheers ppl! 

The Alvarez FD 60S, Thin Cut-Away Electric Acoustic with Solid Spruce Top and Mahagony sides. This was what i bought about a month back for RM 2100. Yeah thats why i am so broke now. Anyway payed installment, So now every month for the next 1 year i WILL be BROKE! haha! :) Anyway, had a pretty rough weekend.. witnessed EXORCISM for the first time and it freaked me out. Tired from work as usual and hanging out with the boys has been late nights as usual too. Something caught my attention a couple of days back, a car sticker with the words "Hidup UMNO, Hidup Melayu".. this reminds me of an article i read in the STAR papers couple of months back. A reader wrote, A China Resident would call himself a Chinese, a Resident from India would call himself an Indian, so what should Malaysian Chinese and Indians call themselves? What race are you? most would answer i am Chinese or Indian or Malay. The question is, why should we not call ourselves Malaysians? Aren't we a harmonious country where every religion lives in peace? Well, a Vietnamese chinese would call themselves Vietnamese and a Canadian Chinese would call themselves Canadian. I think the dilemma most of us non Muslim Malaysians are looking for is what "The American Dream" was all about. About eliminating the indifferences between religions and leaving in Harmony. I've got a question in particular, what kind of procedures does a Malaysian Muslim have to go through should they want to change their religion? I do believe the constitution allows the free will of religion right? or not? Well, I do hope one day Chinese and Indian and Malays can mix around and have mix mariages in the future, without parents having to object due to the fact that Non-Muslims have to convert to Muslims to marry another Muslim, and shunt their family away. I really do feel we can end up in harmony, but the question is When? Hai...yet to be resolved. So How's everyone lately? not many ppl have been reading my blog lately. I wonder if everyone is as busy as me..?? hmmm Oh yeah.. i met this girl helena in backyard lately.. really nice girl... i wonder if she comes here since a lot of backyarders has come to see my previous write up on musicians? hmmm i hope she does.. helena if ur here...HI !!!!!!!!!
 

Well, its funny how little things makes a difference in your life, like how a simple hi can brighthen up one's day, or a " i love you " in the morning would make a person feel happier, or even if the phone beeps with a message that says i miss you from a person you miss too from far away... Life's not always what we expect it to be, but we never tend to appreciate the good things in life, we only complaint about the bad. So how does that help us? Lay See wrote as her msn nick "What a difference a day makes? and the difference is you" taken from a song lately popularized by Michael Buble. The songs brings a great impact on us remembering how simple hi's or good morning can mean to a person. Well, its always good to know someone cares or someone remembers. Thats what's important. So, if ur thinking about someone right now, message a simple HI to them k? Anyway, just to share a picture of an idol, mentor and friend with u guys, master Ponnudorai of Malaysia. As you all know he's been a great influence to my music. Paul always says, when someone compliments you, always say thank you and not "nolah just cari makan" coz when you are complimented, you must always appreciate it, coz someone is sharing their appreciation to you. Life's not that bad.. just make the best of your everyday and u'll be alright! I'd like to take this opportunity to wish all my Muslim friends Selamat hari Raya, and Happy Deepavali to those who are celebrating Diwali. Remember, roads can kill, so drive safely this holiday season. Don't drink and drive. Cheers to muisic in Malaysia. Love you guys! Happy Holidays! 

Hey look, i got a picture from January's Tsunami Aid Concert in Fandango's Sri Hartamas. haha i think its been a wjile since i last wore that black hat.. maybe i should take a picture playing with my new hat...then it will look like a before and after kind of thingy..yeah i think thats whats exactly i am going to do. :) So the next picture would be of me in my new hat...the cat in the hat! hahaha! 

Saer Ze? well, this girl's supposingly to be superb hot and superbly talented. New album with originals launches and get into Hitz top 10 instantly, she must be quite a talent. She's something you should look out for in this year's Jairus Anthony Music Festival in Backyard pub which kicks of tonight. Was suppose to get a slot there but Jerry has quiet down so i guess it means the slot aint gonna be there. I guess my music is just different from the concept they are potraying this year but i'll keep my chins up! i'd probably get somewhere else to play. Mean time, back to my organic guitar stuffs :) So u guys think i shud get an autographed CD from this girl? i dont know...i am so used to listening to organics..am i gonna get a CD of similiar to PINK and Gwen's stuff? hmmm i wonder.. anyway, Saer Ze, thumbs up to you for bringing up the Malaysian English Music Industry, always been my aspiration and i guess that makes you my inspiration! cheers! anyone for JAMFEST tonight? 

Attention Franciscans! Well, who would have guessed, the school i went to was in Melaka and now we have established a club in Kuala Lumpur. Thats why they say once a Franciscan, always a Franciscan. FCKL will be organizing a fund raising dinner in commemoration of SFI being 125 years old and also the inauguration of the club. Any die hard Franciscans reading my blog? if yes, log on to www.thefranciscan.org membership to the site and club is for Franciscans only. I'll be going for the dinner. Ticket is charged at RM 125. I've booked a table and still my table is empty...this sounds crazy but when i booked the table, i practically committed myself to RM 1250 for the table. Well, nothing like pledging to your Alma Mater huh? 30% of all proceeds goes back to SFI and the rest is used to jumpstart the club. Who knows. we might even get a club house next year? Life's unpredictable right? anyway contact me should u guys wanna go for the dinner yah? cheers! "Age Quod Agis" 

Well, there's not much that has been happening lately... Anne reminded me to put on my blog that there were at least 2 decent girls with me on the night in Sugar Club.. haha! of course she's one of them! hahhahaha! things have been going quite OK with me lately..at least there's not too much to complain about.. nothing much to boast about as well.. hmmm probably be hanging out in Fandangos with Sab and N tomorrow night...oh yah ken will be there too.. anyone else care to join us for a couple of drinks? Well, monetary wise, i guess i am pretty dry lately..not too much to income coming my way.. anyway kick started my business with Daniel lately, registered our domain and it should be up by end of this month..its called www.gotlah.com cool name right? wait till u guys see our concept...its at 75% agreable now.. and when its 100% its gonna be official... :) Hey got to get back to work. Shall post a couple of pictures later this week. Stay tuned! 

Dear Readers, sorry i've been away for the past god knows how long. There's been much on my mind.. anyway, just like to share with u ppl what happened last Friday.. something really messed up happened.. Friday Night, i had free invites to Sugar Club in Crown Plaza Hotel Jalan Sultan Ismail coz Michelle was singing and so me and Raymond went there to support her. My god, judging from god knows how long i have not been clubbing, the experience was terrible. I dont deny that there were like many Pretty and sexy girls there that night, girls that turn you on instantly, but the environment was really really bad.. So Mr. Prashan Chitty, i guess the reason u dont date chicks out is coz u dont go to the right places. Anyway, i will never go clubbing again unless its an invite, thats for sure. The ciggie smell was strong, there was ppl everywhere banging u in every corner you walk, you had to self serve for beers. Oh My god! this was madness. i really feel strange going to these places. The kids there were really really young... i guess it gave me a totally different picture on all the other decent nice girls i know. What ever happened to the Malaysian culture? i guess i am outdated.. feel really old right now.. i dont have much new pictures to share with u guys so i guess u got to wait till i do have some new pictures. Finished CSI season 2...got to go Low Yat and buy season 3 pretty soon! cheers ppl! keep up all the good things in life.. say no to ciggie! since the price is damm high now, give urself a reason to quit. Meantime, i shall drink less alcohol...mostly coz i cant afford much now.. pretty broke! 

U guys heard of the Mix FM Bon Jovi Wannabe contest? well guess who won? Our very own musician and friend Jason Noah! he flew to Amsterdam on Thursday to have dinner with Bon Jovi himself and got front row seats to his concert. I told Jason to get me an authographed CD and i sure hope he does not forget. Just fr the Jairus Anthony Music Festival lovers, the Fest starts on October 20th. So keep posted to www.backyardpub.com Jerry n Edmund has offered me a slot to play during this fest. It's gonna be big time exposure for me. Hope i get my act right on time. Cheers folks.  

Well, weekend well spent... Picture was taken in Ringos.. with my college mates.. during a trip i organized for my students to Melaka. Darn tiring weekend. However, nothing substitutes the crowd i had playing in Ringos on Saturday night. The crowd was mad, the people were out to kill, and they enjoyed my music. Now, thats just what a musician wants. Felt like i was playing in a concert.. was the limelight and enjoyed it by the second. Hmmm... 3G is playing this wednesday in Backyard. check out www.backyardpub.com for more details. Simon Justin Leo, Albert Sirimal and Fasy are out to kill.. so hope to see some of u guys there! Haha guess what, i met Winnie Ooi Lee Theng during my weekend in Melaka. i hope i spelled her name correctly... anyway, she was with the parents and sister.. and it was pretty much enjoyable. The mum was as usual asking me damm much questions. Too bad they left before i took stage at Ringos. It was nice seeing Winnie Ooi again.. haha! brings back old memories...fun! 

Malaysian G3... Ever heard G3 in concert, featuring Satriani, johnson and Vai? well, last i heard, Jerry from Backyard will be shooting of the Malaysian version of it... Feel the vibes with Albert Sirimal's Godin plus the Boss Poly Octaver and the GR-09. Feel the groove with Vijay David's entertainment skills, and of course not forgetting Fasy's Fender Strat with lead guitaring like nothing you've ever seen before in Malaysia. Now, thats what i call Vibe.. Do feel free to drop by www.backyardpub.com to find out when is this function going to take place. Also, i've received news that the Jairus Anthony Music Festival 2005 will take place soon after. Will i get a slot to show my stuff?? hmm i do hope so. Anyway, hope to see my blog readers in the g3 concert... chances are, you might not want to leave backyard after watching them play, so do bring more money for drinks, and an extra driver to drive u home after. Cheers!

sharannnn..... well, it took me quite long to upload this picture to my computer....finally i did...hehe! hey ppl this is sharan.... my dear melbourne friend...! oh ran...... 

No words can describe whats been going on this couple of days.. well, it all started on friday... it was Mr. Gilbert's birthday...Mr. Gilbert is my superior officer... We had much to drink that night... i was on a drinking spree....thank god i had Dr. on my mind, so i did controlled.. i bet Dr. would not like d idea of me over drinking. :) but still, weird things happened. There was a bunch of women who were there that night. They were trying to get onto us... yucks! i think this women are deprived of attention. They freakingly invited me and Rodney, the guy in blue, my colleague to come for another session on saturday. They told us there was gonna be a lot of wild woman and that we would enjoy ourselves. I wonder what that implicated. Anyway, friday passed just like that...drinking! the next day was a working day of course. We had exhibition in Corus Hotel Ampang. That morning, i asked Rodney if he was even thinking about going? he kinda said it was under consideration. haha! men will alwiz be men i guess. but when night fell, none of us went...i guess we are nice guys after all. No crave for this kinda madness. I'd rather be home thinking about Dr. rather that enjoying myself out..

I called Ran on saturday night but she was asleep at 11 PM melbourne time. How sad the thought. As usual, i did not wanna deprive her of her beauty sleep, so i just said good night. I thought i would just go to bed as well, but i ended up in BullDog with Victor. God knows how... Gerard Anthony, brother of the late jairus Anthony was having his session in bulldog that night. We again had drinks. Man, Bulldog's beer is sold at RM 8.50 whole night long. I wonder how severe this damages Backyard's business. The night did end in backyard though. Me and Vic and Ger ended up visiting Albert, VJ and Bada after their show... then we continued drinking. I left early as i was working on Sunday at Corus Hotel.

Sunday morning, Corus Hotel it was. Stupid exhibition, no crowd at all. I think the organizers should revemp their marketing strategy and not charge ppl RM 3500 for a booth which noone visits. man! all Colleges there were pretty pissed. Lunch, Raymond picked me up and we went to Ampang Park Mall for food. The supposingly nice food court was closed that day so we ended up having lunch at this shop called cosy place. Man did the food suck... it was raining heavily so Raymnd had to send me back to Corus. Work ended at 5 and therefore i ended up in Raymond's place. Gerard and Sherman was there with Raymond doing some recording.. psst... Gerard's new song One Man sounded really nice...look out for it. Raymond ended up in Low Yat with me coz he wanted to get a new PC. so we went PC shopping till 10.30..man! tired tired! then stayed for supper and helped ray configure his PC till about 1 A.M. Headed home and was back before 2.

Well, i've been working everyday since Friday. If that's not bad enuff, we celebrated Gerard Singh's birthday yesterday night at backyard... my god was it madness. Ray got a bottle and Vic got another. That made it 2 bottles. Damm were we screwed up! had supper in Agros and day ended at about 4 A.M and here i am, 6 hours later, blogging in office. I'm mad...i know! Well, i've been wanting to call ran all week. I really miss her a lot...i guess i shud be calling her pretty soon! i am deprived of talking with her...as shown on my msn nick! its been difficult to talk much with ran coz of the time difference. As i am already working almost everyday till late, when i get home, its almost 9 which means almost 11 in melbourne.. and i cant call her coz its late.. i dont wanna disturb her.. how i wish she could just designate special time for me to call! shucks.. i sound like a cry baby now..but its true, i'd rather be a crybaby and get to talk to her then not being able to talk with her under any circumstances.

Alright, i think i blogged enough for one day.. i still have a slight head ache from yesterday's boozing...Coundown to Merdeka! plans for celebration at bamboo. Any suggessions anyone?

Well, most of you are already aware that the API in KL Is worsening by the days...and worst, its not raining at all! oh my god! whats up with the haze man? UiTM has declared closure for a week. Sunway University College has is in the point of declaring tomorrow and the weekend off for their students...in my university, its as bad...just waiting for boss to say tomorrow no work! hahaha over 200 schools over Klang Valley has already been declared close for a week! man.... well, the picture is taked from www.nst.com.my and is featuring the haze in sunway lagoon! now i bet u'd change ur mind if ur thinking of going to sunway lagoon this weekend huh? :) back to personal stuff..today has been a boring day! not much work! however, got memo yesterday that this weekend is a working weekend! man!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! have to cancel my back to melaka trip! so anyone wanna come up kl teman me this weekend? i bet i'd be bored...i wonder if ran would have time to chit chat with me this weekend? if not i guess i'll just clean up my room after working hours....hmm! so whats up with everyone? do keep in touch! cheers! 

check this picture out, again, something i wanna share with ppl....its called kapo-eta..its a form of brazillian martial arts! its pretty cool...i watched it on tv once..in a movie called only the strong! very very cool form of martial arts! i got to see it live when i was in victoria island in British Columbia during my vancouver trip! pretty fun! it was on the streets! anyway, haze is getting pretty bad today! WHERE IS IT COMING FROM? man, my eyes are all painfull and all! tonight i shall be bar hopping again to backyard in Sri Hartamas, my friend Raymond is playing with Mr. Alvin Fletcher there tonight.. its gonna be a lill country and a little acoustic... pretty much organic stuff i was promised...so whoever wanna be there can see me there about 10.... :) anyway, ran has been pretty busy lately..not talked to her for a couple of days already! life is such a torture huh? tell me about it! anyone has stories to share with me? i am still finding a way to link other blogs to mine...so that i read other's blogs...dont like the friendster idea as it is too public...eliminates every point of privacy in blogging! oh...if anyone wanna listen to some new song, try banana pancakes by jack johnson. i've been pretty much advertising him for the past few days, he's pretty good... maybe i would feature him solely in my tomorrows blog...but until then, adios seniore and senioritas... PS: Anitha added me in friendster yesterday, i shud say its a pretty weird thing to happen as i alwiz have problems blending with her...i kinda feel ackward around her...maybe its coz i use to have head over heels for her...hmmmm! ciowz 

So, i've not blogged since who knows when! anyway, i am back in actioN! thanks to those who has been loyally asking me to blog again! it kinda makes me feel that i am remembered and there is no more better feeling then that! Let me share with you a picture i took when i was in downtown vancouver. they had this 2 man BAND called CHRUB! i bought the CD, but misplaced it somewhere...there were street performers. Just look at the instruments they play.. i bet Ran would have been thrilled to see them! the music was kinda funky and sounded harmonious...kinda the music u would listen to on a day when u need to clear ur mind! so if i could find the cd somewhere, maybe some of u who needs to release some tension should borrow it from me! So whats been up with ppl? i'd honestly like to apologize to those ppl whom i tricked into doing the Crush thing! quote " its all good " said the person who tricked me ..." at least now u guys dont have secrets with me" unquote.. :) haha! trust me...i got tricked by a person i would never have wanted to tell all those stuff to..but hey, i did! so, i'll be back for more tomorrow! thanks again for coming back to the blog...post some comments if u have the time.

Well ladies and gentleman, meet Alfred Ho, probably the most influencial blind musician in Malaysia. He had a gig in backyard last Wednesday and i managed to get a glimpse of him and thanks to jerry and julian, i took a photograph with him..u see, my camera was out of batteries, so i had to borrow jerry's.... Well 1st May labour day weekend went on pretty well....tiring though. Spent Friday jamming with Allan in Bamboo Hut Bistro. Just to test my new ZOOM Acoustic Pedal...(NICE SOUND)... then on Saturday did a function at d'Lisbons in Portugese Settlement.. Did not get paid much, but it was a good experience. Did it as a favour to my ex school teacher. Then on Sunday Ringo asked me to replace him at his place coz he was on his way to Redang for a function. Did not go on very well, as my repertoir is still very low... so only managed to impress half the crowd. The others were not bothered about me playing. I realised i did not do as well as i should have..i wonder why? must be too much playing continuously. Well, at least the night ended well as allan from bamboo came to visit and jammed a few songs with me...that caught the crowd's attention..in every way. Allan just increased his repertoir to d 90's...it used to more to 50's to 80's. Fantastic musician...when am i going to be like him? hmmm... anyone dont know that Gerard Singh had 2 nominations for AIM?? check out www.aim.com.my ! i think that would be my next blog topic...Liverpool champions league semi-final match starts in half an hours time...so i better go get dressed in my liverpool jersey... You'll Never Walk Alone! ciowz ppl....oh ya, my parents were up in Singapore and i asked my dad to search for Paul Ponnudorai's album for me... too bad its not in d shelves of major stores yet...i am keeping my fingers crossed that it would be!

Have you seen anything like it? why i have..... my TOP IDOL Paul Ponnudorai does some stunts on MY guitar with dear friend Sherman Tan. You should have been there...the sound was extra ordinary... Paul is releasing his debut album "Just On Time" soon. Its being sold in America and Italy and nearest would be Singapore. I am not quite sure if it would be sold in Malaysia. Do a google search on paul ponnudorai and u would be able to see his album details. guitarist extrordinaire. SALUTE!

WORM! imagine, 2 years of being a computer semi expert and i have not had problems with my computers. However, lately, due to my NOTTINESS, i accepted some unknown file in msn messenger from someone who has not messaged me for years! due to my ignorance, i was WORMED. So ppl who use msn, please beware. there is a new worm in town. It is called W32:fatso.A it spreads through email and msn. It is new in the MARKET and norton and symantec has yet to solve it. Thank god Avast Ant Virus has. I managed to clear mine only yesterday after being bugged for 2 days! thanks AVAST! the virus is only about 4 days old and is already rampaging through korea and unites states and now Malaysia as well. It is very difficult to clean! so ppl please beware. To know more about this virus, u can log into this website :: http://www.esecurityplanet.com/alerts/article.php/3488061 :: Do beware of files sent to lure you to it, for instant, my picture or somesort. VERY VERY DANGEROUS! anyway, good luck to all friends getting their SPM results tomorrow. may the force be with you! haha! cheers ppl! chittybout out! 

Well, suprisingly there has been 1 person that's always reading my blog... i don't know why? but i surely do appreciate it..thank you Ms. (Fell down the stairs)....well, i'd really like to write sumthing for u, since ur d one alwiz reading it.....if i asked u whether u thought that i hate u or i love you..which would u say? haha...though question eh? same as i could not answer if u'd ask me the same thing. Things have not been the same since d incident back then... i just thought u might wanna know that i don't hate u...and i'm telling u dis coz i do care... and all i hope from u is for u to get a grip on ur life... the reason i am mean sometimes its coz i feel u r ignorant and arrogant.. somehow, u think u know what u should...but u alwiz end up with depression...is it worth it? i'm surely not trying to dictate ur life or something...just giving u a piece of advice as a friend...do change ur lifestyle..its not that u cannot, u can if u want to... its just a matter of determination and i know u still got some in you... i know at the end of reading this, u'd probably be angry at me...either that or disgusted at what i am saying...but u know, if its for the best, i would not mind... maybe someday u'd know that its just that i care for you. Sorry that i have not been able to show u how much i do care, but i do....written in public...no more proof needed! :) so do take care and i do hope ur studies come along well. Do have a good life. Thats all i can wish for you! cheers! smile alwiz k? after all, it was ur smile that killed me at first sight:)

For those who have yet to know who this is, this is Paul Ponnudorai, my IDOL! his album "Just On Time" is set to release sometime soon. The album promises Covers like Covers has Never been done before. So don't even dare miss it. See you in March Paul....i'd be coming to Singapore to watch you pretty soon. Thanks for d autograph on my guitar. 

Well, for those who don't know these ppl, they are Dan Seals (member of England Dan and Jphn Ford Coley) and Jim Seals(member of Seal and Croft) Two brothers who played in different bands. They recently came for a show in Arena of Stars and i happen to go watch it. They are undoubtfully first class musicians. Dan played a 12 string Martin and Jim played a Taylor cut-away. Very expensive guitars, for ppl like me of course. ALthough they had some difficulty with the sound system, they managed to pull through with some beautiful music. For those who would dont know much about them, you might wanna try listening to I'd really love to see you tonight by England Dan & John Ford Coley and Summer Breeze by Seal and Croft. These are their more particular famous numbers. It was a showcase of talented musicians and although the crowd did not fill the stadium, they performed like profesionnals. If so happen the Seals brothers are reading my blog, i'd like to let them know that i have enjoyed myself in their concert. Just how i wished i could have stayed back to get their autographs.. i heard Marcus brought all his Seals records to be signatured...real lucky fellow! cheers marcus!

When i was a little bit a baby my mama would rock me in a cradle! haha the 3 musketeers posing... :) As for the second time, Chrsitmas eve is celebrated in Ringos...
