yesterday is the night before Malaysia,my beloved country celebrated their 51st Independents Day.it is going to be my first day also celebrating the nite of independence day outside the home since all this while i've been celebrating it in the house itself only with my parents.so,what plans do i have for that special nite??am i going to make myself wasted outside?no, i had better plan though...
the same nite itself which is the 30th of August 2008,a gig was held at Soundmaker, Weld Quay area.in the first place i tot its going to be in a big space and etc with lots of people cramming in the place with a very sweaty and 'heaty' experience but it turned out to be differently.it was not that bad for a first timer like me(a real first timer for a gig)and it was actually a really new and exciting experienced.
ok,lets not waste my time and the electricity coz wasting electricity is not cool coz it can cause global warming.neway,the show/gig should be starting earlier but a friend of my friend told him that the gig only started around 4 like that or earlier or later..i dunno.i arrived there only at 7pm,im a late comers!haha!!there's saying "a true rockers never came early for a show/gig"....im following that saying actually.lol.
neway,we(my fren n I) arrived there like a true rockstar.we came,we climb,we saw(the counter ticket),we walkthrough(not paying for the ticket,lol)and we conquer the place by placing ourself at the most safest place of all...beside the stage.it was actually rather safe to step aside and let other hard rockers,skinheads,punkers n etc take their position to kick off one another(literally).there was a band that was performing on stage but seriously i dunno the band name(sorry),my fren should know the name since his fren is in the band.well,they really kicked off the show and i was kinda enjoying the show and i was expecting more to come.eventually yes...later,a poet by the name of Rahmat Harun performed with his deep poem.honestly,children below aged are not allowed to listen to all this crap.haha,but adult should listen to this art though coz it meant something if we really understand it and we should take it and apply it literally what happened around us.i know that Mrs.Hatia will definitely hold her breath and make her shocking face and the eyes glued to the poet and said "oh my goodness,its that even a word that was coming out from his mouth or hisses,sick in the head people"..hahaha.that what i guess she should be saying but not me.basically the poem relates bout whats happening in Malaysia.
then it continues with performance from various bands that for me really kicked the show that nite!i was really enjoying it from the side and all of them are very cool people and they will be even cooler without alcohol though...lol.no offense ya.i prefer a performance without a single alcohol bottle bcoz like what a saying once said "a true rockers never drink during their performance" which is not so true but i was hoping it could be true though....lots of band that performed on that night i barely know them and i cant even remember their name,gosh,my memory so bad..must upgrade the memory card some more.
but the one tht i could not forget is the performance by Circle of Friends where in the beginning itself they already show their 'self-hatred' towards those who are homophobic.this is actually the first time i saw all 'this' in front of me but i manage to take it easy though coz i was actually staring at the drummer rather than the vocalist.he didnt distract me that well though..huhu.that band is from Singapore and the funny thing about this band is that among all the thing that they should have forgotten,there is a thing that they(or more to the drummer) that he shouldn't forget but he had forgotten..drum stick!he had forgotten or purposely not bringing his drum stick and he has to like "hey,any body got drum stick??" i was just laughing from the side there.eventually someone borrowed him one and he played well.he is awesome!
Gang Buster also did performed for the show and they rock the house!so basically when they performed all those skinheads came down and just enjoying the show and to be honest i enjoyed it so much.they performed few songs(sorry i dunno the name of all the songs they played) and the crowd was just enjoying and loving the performance and start kicking themselves again.haha...among all i still remember a guy wearing a red shirt or jacket with a big red shoes like Ronald McDonald who was dancing enjoying the show.he really looked 'high' at that time...but for me he looks funny at that time.
a band from KL also performed and i dunno them and the name oslo.they r kinda good though they really sounded like Metallica. maybe its the fact that they played Enter Sandman using their own version called Enter Sandman 1.2 or sumthing like that...according to my fren,they all is Reshmonu punya anak didik,lebih kurang macam tu kot.
the last performance that i saw would be Circle of Friends and after that i have to chiao followed my fren to take his own circle of friends.hehehe..the show continues on the 31st of August but too bad i cant go for the continuing show.gosh...neway,my fren shared with me his xperience and even show me some of the footage of the show.it was so cool coz it was held on the rooftop!gosh..i wished i could be there.more cooler bands performed on that nite like Teenage Glory For The Wasted, Shewolf, Damn Dirty Apes, Flica & much more.for those who watched the show/gig they are very very lucky coz i heard most of the bands that performed on the 2nd day is more hectic and cool and the best part is that it was held on the rooftop!!my fren even told me that there's a band by the name of Uglyman who sang in Chinese but can still attract the attention(tari crown) of the audience.wasn't that cool!!!awesome!
Basically, what can i say about my first time experience celebrating Independents Day outside the house and watching a live gig is a truly worth taking a risk experience.Im seing the nicest and the most awesome bunga api once i get down from the hall where the gig was held.oh ya,no matter wat you must take care of yourself properly bcoz you might get the tendency to be hit by a car(maniac!i will remember you dark blue toyota/honda with halogen light) or being strangle by your own fren or being 'choped' as sum1 special fren.hahaha...thats all.
chiao for now.
ps : i love you.
