After being eliminated from One in a Million, i still happen to have some chance to entertain...lucky me.. i'm not a One in a Million reject after all.. ;) i kinda like this picture... i look really good in it.. i mean of course i look fat coz i am.. but the picture actually potraits me as a musician..and that feels good.. i guess this beats all the other times when i play music wearing short pants.. need to kill that habit and ego.. haha! anyway... i played for this function for my uni and i sang a couple of songs... heard myself in the DVD after and i sounded horrible... reminds me something..next time i go on stage..make sure its after a few drinks of whisky or beer..nothing less, coz else my vocals would be YUCKS! 

Never contemplate that Binary does not have cute girls or handsome guys... like my friend sanjay says.. here is ala carte... in some places is buffet... so u must choose wisely thats all... but hey, thats my princess koh yin ling up on stage... she's so beautifull ain't she? just love her so much! mwakz mwakz mwakz.. she's not feeling well today... she's been down with high fever yesterday... scary.... coz i have to be patient with her.. i've probably never been so patient with any gurls in my life b4...this is getting serious.. im gonna marry her...hahaha :) well, all i can do is hope and pray she gets well soon..and pop in to see her once in a while.. although her mouth always say she dowan see me but i know she's just lying coz everytime she say that and i appear also she's happy to see me.. i guess thats why ppl say "WOMEN" haha :) get well soon my dear... 

Well, its that time of year again when the MUSIC gets wild and the ppl strive to prove their talent.. yes, i'm talking about the 2006 JAIRUS ANTHONY Music Festival, A.K.A JAMFEST which is organized yearly at the one and only BACKYARD pub, Sri Hartamas. =) Year after year, this music festival features popular musicians like Paul Ponnudorai, Gerard Singh, Raymond Chia, Sherman Tan, Pete Teo, Rafique Rashid, Fasy, Julian Mokhtar, Vijay David, Albert Sirimal, Badar, Collin Jansen, Vishnu, and many many more. The JAMFest, dedicated to Jairus Anthony, a pub musician who passed away with cancer a couple of years ago. His main journey in music was to see pub musician given the opportunity to get exposure and show their music skills to others, sort of what i would call a show when Eric Clapton does a guitar festival and invite newbies to showcase their talent. Backyard has yet to line up their performers, but nevertheless, it would definitely be a killer event. Let's hope i get to jam with the boys on the last day... Those interested to find out more should log on to www.backyardpub.com where music comes to LIVE.... :)

A rich businessman had a beautiful daughter, who fell in love with a guy who was a cleaner. When the girl's father came to know about their love,he did not like it at all, and so began to protest about it. Now it happened that the two lovers decided to leave their homes for a happy future. The girl's father started searching for the two lovers but could not find them. At last, he accepted their love and asked them to come back home in a local newspaper. Her father said "If you both come back I will allow you to marry the guy you love, I accept that you loved each other truly." So in this way, their love won and they returned home. The couple went to town to shop for the wedding dress. He was dressed in white shirt that day. While he was crossing the road to the other side to get some drinks for his wife, a car came and hit him and he died on the spot. The girl lost her senses. It was only after sometimes that she recovered from her shocked. The funeral and cremation was the very next day because he had died horribly.Two nights later, the girl's mother had a dream in which she saw an old lady. The old lady asked her mother to wash the blood stains of the guy from her daughter's dress as soon as possible. But her mother ignored the dream. The next night her father had the same dream, he also ignored it. Then when the girl had the same dream the next night, she woke up in fear and told her mother about the dream. Her mother asked her to wash the clothes which have blood stains immediately. She washed the stains but some remained. Next night she again had the same dream she again washed the stains but some still remained. Next night she again had the same dream and this time the old lady gave her a last warning to wash the blood stain, or else something terrible will happen. This time the girl tried her best to wash the stains, and the clothes nearly tore, but some stains still remained.She was very tired. In the late evening the same day while she was alone at home, someone knocked the door. When she opened the door she saw the same old lady of her dream standing at her door. She got very scared and fainted.The old lady woke her up... and gave her a blue object, which shocked the girl. She asked "What is this...?" The old lady replied... "Try DYNAMO Liquid Soap... just a dab and it will remove all stubborn stains!!!" . WHAT A JOKE! 

Hot Asian Cowboy in Singapore... well there i was, who would have thought, an Asian Cowboy in the heart of Singapore...during its independence celebration, attending a Country and Western Open Air Concert in the Esplenade.. As i was sitting there that night, enjoying the good music of Big Game and Paul Ponnudorai, 2 things hit me bad time.. 1 was my journey into the music scene.. suddenly it made me feel down..where was i? what was i doing? i've recently bought a drum machine wanting to practice my music! but what have i done? NOTHING! its still well kept in its bloody box....i've not been practicing...how do i expect to improve... Then came the hearts feeling... made me miss Shermaine Koh Yin Ling AKA Shermaine Koh Chitty... the past weeks with my lou por has been a journey i never imagined would have been true! but it is! i still pinch myself to see if its real! and it is! and for once in my life... im experiencing LOVE like it should be experienced... who should i thank? Aunty Elaine & uncle Jason of course...for their remarkable daughter.. she's really made for me...heheh! my perfect other half..well almost perfect of course... but spending my lifetime with her is my new resolution! gonna be hard to make that dream come true if i continue buying gadgets..but haha! hopefully i'll manage..loosing her would mean loosing direction in this would and i sure dont want that to happen! love u my chicken rice queen! hahahaha mwakz..

Why is she my other half u ask? well, firstly, i can tell her anything..not worying that she will get angry..coz she understands my needs... sometimes a guy has got to have late nights.. and i dont have to lie to her when im out... i just need to tell her where i am... :) not like im gonna cheat on her or anything... i am really just normally having my late nights with the boys...or sometimes classified as early mornings....haha :) shermaine koh chitty...im glad u've chosen to spend d rest of ur life with me... 2009 we shall get it signed on the papers ya? luv u baby...mwakzloopz! 

BIG GAME, the name you shout out loud when you talk about country and western music in the malaysian scene... Well, That's Gerard Singh, Sherman Tan and Raymond Chia. Significantly, BIG GAME is a word animal hunters use for the more challenging hunts.. to hunt down the impossible animals.. and thats what BIG GAME means.. they are major ppl in the industry..especially if you are talking about country and western... noone i've seen can be as organic as this lot... Well, the picture up was taken in Harry's Bar at the esplenade...taken right after a country and western gig BIG GAME had featuring Paul Ponnudorai, the all time Malaysian Maestro for guitars.... It was a short weekend in Singapore for me...too short to actually enjoy the scenes... Raymond was sick d whole time...poor thing...nevertheless, his wandering around got him some good times... With us in the picture, is of course our little petite Mrs. Anne Ponnudorai... sweetest thing u can find in Singapore... gretest of friends... Now, the Singapore music scene is a little different to the Malaysian music scene..ppl there actually understand what you are doing...and Paul is like another Maestro there... of course deserving every respect he gets as he use to practice till 8 hours a day...we cant deny him his achievements today! Well, that's Big Game... www.biggameproductions.com is on its way... considering recording with a smaller company. Consider these guys..as their mix is pretty good and they know their sound... and most importantly, they're the friendliest lot...of coz untill u tell them to play another song or get out of ur pub..then it becomes an issue.... i mean, look at these guys...u probably dont wanna step on their tail! 

Gerard Singh + Sherman Tan + Raymond Chia = BIG GAME plus that with Paul Ponnudorai and you get a Singapore Esplenade Open Air Country & Western Music Festival.. Observe my buddies Sherman Tan on the absolute left and Gerard Singh on the Absolute Right... What kind of music to expect from this BIG ppl? well, if you like Cosby, Stills Nash & Young, The Eagles, Kenny Loggins & Alabama, then The Esplenade is the place to be this Friday, 11th August 2006. Not sure about cover charges & all, but fun is sure to be excruatiating fun... Im off Tonight with the boys after their gig... shooting off to Singapore probably in Sherman's car which they are gonna drive at 150 KM/hour..hhaaha my baby is so gonna freak out when she reads this...but hey, they've been safe drivers for as long as i know them! so i guess its gonna be alright! its a big car anyway! What to expect from this gig, i dont know yet...let me find out this weekend and bring back lots & lots of pictures for u guys to see in case u guys are not gonna be there... :) Anyway, im gonna add http://asliceofmypie.blogspot.com as a new link.. in favour of GERARD SINGH...its his blog..there is another site about BIG GAME but i have not been able to access it yet.. Paul? Well, enuff said everywhere about him...funny thing is, i went to tommy emmanuel's site yesterday and told him..tommy, if ur ever down in Malaysia, it would be my dream to watch a concert of u and paul playing side by side... oh... dream come true! dream come true! There's no place like home, Malaysia... Truly Asia! Adios ppL! see you after this wekend!

I guess we should plan on marriage soon! ahhaa so wanna be with baby for d rest of my life! ;)

Vell, we've got our initials carved deep into our skins.. what do you say about that? we have each other in each other's heart... and now we have each other on each other's skin! but that was just until yesterday i guess.... its all faded now... its pretty weird how some things just remain a mystery.. ever met a couple that does not have anything to argue about? sounds scary to me but thats the way it is! will we ever quarrel over something? so far, she's just so my type... understanding everything that i do...and i am so her type..understanding everything that she does.. oh gosh...its like a relationship you watch in the movies... but thats us.. the baby 319's.. i guess i should announce her to the whole world soon! post her picture here so that everyone can see how wonderful my darling is... so lovin! baby..mwakz!

GOD WORKS IN MYSTERIOUS WAYS.... there are many different intepretations to that line.. many thinks its the miracles that god makes happens, some thinks its the gift that god gives.. but i have always believed, that everything happens for a reason... and lately, the reason has came clear to me... When i was born, god destined me to be a forgetfull person..i always lose things... i've lost a guess watch by just leaving it on a table, i've lost a guitar by leaving it in school, ive lost at least 3 handphones by just leaving them around and many many more stuffs..always cant remember where i put my things... god also made me a forgetter,,i alwiz forget stuffs.. probably cant remember writing this tomorrow.. always forget all the stuffs i said..so must always write down... god made me a joker.. always laughing and making jokes... god made me a nice guy... only to find that nice guys finish last... BUT, 2 years after i was born, GOD completed me by creating a being that is to complete me.. a person that helps me remember my stuffs.. such good memory...favourite subject is BIO summore.. subject that i sucked in.... god made someone that would love me for who i am since i dont think i can change myself much.. god made someone who could care for me and tell me how much she loves me everyday, words that makes me happy when im sad... and to finish it with style, i think god was afraid that i might not meet her...so he made a special note in his book of love... he made her birth on the exact sameday as me exactly 2 years apart... and YES, after 23 long years, i've found my destiny..sounds corny right? but its pretty true..and for the first time, im not ashame to say it.. i', in LOVE! LOVE! LOVE! LOVE! crazy LOVE and so, that is the story of my life that will go down memory lane not matter what happens to "us".. love u baby! 

can anyone make out who my baby is? haha! she's gonna kill me when she see's this! :) well, the past 3 days has been d most magnificent days of my life.. me and her took one step closer to our perfect relationship :) Ppl say that the best feeling in d world is when you wake up with the person u care about most lying next too you, with your arms wrapped around them...i've yet to have that experience..but when she holds my hands, i feel like heaven's in my hands.. :) how happy can a man be? i wonder if this is d last relationship i would ever be in? can it go the length? sure hope it does.. maybe i'd do a double wish next birthday...since i'd probably do a double celebration....den i shall blow her candles and make her wish for her...haha...kiddin...wait baby angry! anyway, luv u dear... wanna leave office now..tata! 

Well, did not blog much about Yemen.. was there for like almost 2 weeks...torture... haha! till i went to the only bar in town and got myself a heineken... probably the only place u get to have a heineken in the whole of Yemen.. must have connections! haha :) anyway, as much as i dont like philipino bands, met this group that were nice ppl. Zarvee, Natalie, Daniel, Ruby...bunch of nice ppl! jammed with them a couple of songs..and later on played in a tourism malaysia function with them..met a lot of big shots there and made pretty good connections..maybe i should go to Yemen again soon! pretty nice place...boring though :)

This one's gonna be an interesting blog.. Prashan Chiity... who would ever think he would actually end up finding d one person he really cares for... besides his family that is.. Well, its oficially true.. I'm in love... You know, i'd have to admit, i've never cried at d end of any relatonships i had.. well maybe once...coz it ended in favour of my fault..so i did feel bad about it...but my experience now with me baby is some sort of a totally new experience for me..one i think is worth writing about... Today is gonna be a slight gloomy day for me.. as i know that when i stepped into work today, i'd probably not see her as she will not be aroud for 4 long days.. yeah i know..sounds like torture isn't it.. but i guess its a test of endurace for me n her.... well.. yesterday when she departed from my arms for home, it just took me half an hour before i realised i miss her so much that i had to call her and tell her.... it felt as though she was on the next flight to Chicago and i had to tell her i miz her... hahaa.. pretty new experience for me..but it was fun..sort of an adreneline rush or something... But all is great... who knows, this might b d girl i wanna spend d rest of my life with.. but its all still to early to say..many more obstacle for me to overcome! can our feelings blossom from this point forth? THe question remains a mystery...the answer is out there... 319 baby..if ur here reading this now... i'm so totally missing u... luv u lots! 

So Cindy.... noted as OIAM Cindy on my phone.. was quite an interesting characther.. still cant believe a 18 year old rolls her own cigarattes... STOP SMOKIN gurl... she's a characther in OIAM i'd like to comment about... one day during the competition i was jamming wit Joshua down by the garden of FOod Street in the Curve..and she came along..just after her date with her bf i think...and sat with us.. we did some RnB style versions of Before you accuse me and Ain't no Sunshine... then Cindy came in and did some Soul back up! man did she have the vocals like aretha does.. she's really good i thought... then she did it again and again and again till it spoilt the song! :( hmmmm... i think that in the near future..she'll be a really good singer..her vocals are FANTASTIC! no doubt about that.. hmmm wanted to go up to the other girl, suki i think her name is to introduce myself.. but i chickened out..she's really sweet..wish i had.. but hey..regrets are merely words! I still think i could have made it through that guys elimination stage.. but hey...life goes oN! back to playing some funk in pubs..haha! going for a Country N western gig in August in Singapore... being the Rody for my fwen.. hope the response is good! always wanted to be in that kind of EAGLES concert environment!  

Shafinaz? Well she's the doll in the whole competition.. She takes her music very seriously.. she can really differentiate singers from musicians..haha some of us are just not born singers.. but we can still sing right? haha still cant believe Paul called me a basker...though it was not shown on TV, but Mungkin Nanti may not just be a sad song right? maybe he was happy when he was singing it.. ever tot of that? i kinda think Peter Pan is singing without feelings..so anyone can add any emptions to that song... Back to shafinaz.. u think she looks dammm pretty right? i kinda think she looks very thin...i happen to think that all the lady celebrities are very thin and they maintain such a bodyline to look good on TV.. it does give you a few extra pounds.. But Shafinaz is reall tall..and her sweet smile.. killer! 

Paul Moss, AKA Mean Machine... lyn's shouting at me everyday to blog about him...so here goes.. Well.. i see Paul as an ACTUAL nice guy! he's just mean coz he gets paid to be mean... Simon Cowell is mean coz he's mean.. but Paul's Mean coz he gets paid good money to be like Simon. I dont quite agree in everything he says all the time.. at times he says weird things..but hey, that's reality TV right? haha :) but if you guys think that Paul Moss is mean on TV, wait till you guys get behind the scenes..he's more than just mean, he's SUPERMeAN!... he'd not give u a chance at anything.. go ahead and give him a chance to show his talent in front of Reality TV..and Paul will make full use of it.. poor ppl sometimes.. sad....very the kesian some of the contestants who gave him CACI sooooooooo much! Paul, you should learn how to use more sarcastic ways instead of harsh mean words like idiot and stupid.. learn from Simon! ;) 

You see, i joined this competition called One in a Million organized by 8tv.. not realising that it is NOT a replacement of Malaysian Idol, i joined and i qualified to the next round.. Went for Round 2 and i got KICKED OUT! man... but it was fun..meeting new friends and all..they are so the happening... As a music lover, there is nowhere else to be like a place that when you hum a song, everyone follows in with harmony... hahaha! cant beat that can you.. it was an experience.... a good one too... Too competitive.. all 89 of us who qulified for the second round out of the 4000 auditioners are good singers... fantastic! met ppl like Farrah from MI2 (could not convince her to give me her phone number), Dayang something...recording artist... Phyne Ballerz...the ppl who sang Vida in Malay...really really good singers... and also ppl like Cindy who blew me away.. Joshua who has such suttle vocals.. Ozy who was a killer... Sonia, so jazzy... Blues man Russel.. Sweet Mable and of course Patrick the hi hi ha ha guy! all fantastic musicians.. hope i will meet them soon! i hope these guys will send me some pictures so that i can blog about them...give me a few days and i shall be back to blog about Paul Morse... dont u guys wanna know what he is like behind the scenes...haha!
