beeep beep BEP

Matthew Chong? at a Black Eyed Peas concert!?
Yes, it sounds un-appropriate but I did go.

why?

Frankly, i appreciate the bands views on music and the industry very much. I admire how they have handled and embraced the change in the industry.

Furthermore, have you heard "I Got A Feeling" ? - it's awesome.
There's something about this song, in terms of music structure.

[ G C Em C ] isn't a common progression for a electro pop song. It takes you on a very pleasant dreamy high with the [G]'s and [C]'s while the [Em] adds a certain intensity to the song. It all falls together brilliantly.

However, this song doesn't sound very much like a pure BEP effort. That's because it was produced by David Guetta.

I think i can safely say that i've hopped on
the Black Eyed Peas
band wagon.

There are 3 things that come around too often in a year:

1. Halloween

2. Moon cake festival

3. the Calvary Carnival

are you with me?

SG 130909

Do you ever find it corny when you watch those shows on Discovery channel and National Geographic where the 'dude' will go out on a mission to look for the biggest snake and then he doesn't find it till the very last day? ( or the 40th minute of a 45 minute long show). Well, I do. 

Over the weekend I searched a dozen record stores across Singapore city and could not find IT. Anyway, I managed to find it 3 hours before my flight back. So, yea maybe that kinda stuff really does happen on TV.

Then again... no i'll take that back.

I still think that the producers are trying to pull a fast one.

deja vvho?

I had a dream about this page 3 months ago.

& i have never seen this page (EVER) till today.

& of all things, i blog-ed about it in my dream.

iamdeadserious. 

Another concert!

not bad.

& i've seen a 1/4 of it all.

I still think that a storm trooper outfit is the best possible thing one could wear to the jungle.

Teror live @ the MCPA

A hardcore band that preaches about good clean fun.
what could be better?

Thoughts - Architecture

I do not see a reason to why one has to justify ones self for every idea design or concept. Not everything has to be bound to a significant meaning. If it is both beautiful and functional then let it be. Don't ask where have you seen this being done or even what inspired you, expecting a logical and predictable explaination. Why is it that one cannot simply pull out ideas which lack "fundementals" from the air? Being in this line of study/profession, I would say that it's stupid to not do so. Infact, being an artist one should be cursed to constantly have unexplainable ideas popping out of ones imagination for no good reason.

Jamiroquai live @ Sepang F1 After Race Party

When I heard that the space cowboys were heading to this corner of the earth I kinda had mixed feelings about it. On one hand it was a dream come true, being able to watch my favourite band live in action, and on the other having to share it with a bunch of race car junkies that have never heard of Jamiroquai. Also, I always thought that I would watch my first Jamiroquai concert in like... Sweden or Norway. That and the much talked about 3 hour crawl to the Sepang circuit was quite alot to think about. I would have made up my mind sooner if they were to have performed in Singapore.


ANYWAYS, i ended up going(DUH!) with my dad, so the 2hour crawl wasn't too bad. And there were other REAL Jamiroquai fans, ones that caught them on their Dynamite tour in Australia back in 2005. Awesome. People that listen to Jamiroquai are awesome. Except for the MOS remixed bullshit versions which do not count. Why would someone want to spoil a good thing?



Back to the concert. Their set list (not in order):

High Times

Alright
Seven Days In Sunny June

PICTURES:

There were 3 opening acts, an Indonesian band* (I didn't get the band's name but they were pretty good and therefore deserve a mention), Naturally 7 and Twilight Action Girl.

Some random dude shouted: "Play Love Foolosophy and i'll die a happy man!"-agreed
When they actually played Love Foolosophy, if I had hair on the back of my neck it would have stood up.
Awesome concert.

I'm still partially on cloud 9.

*Updated, the indonesian band is Maliq n d'essentials.
TQ

NEXT STOP_ JAMIROQUAI

Sunburst '09 (2)

I was almost dreading the concert because of the scorching afternoon sun but much to my suprise the weather was beautiful at the concert site. &ONLY the concert site. The sun was up and shining but the whole place was sort of shaded. There was a thoughtfully placed hill to block the sun. haha.

Pictures in chronological order:

Gorgeous

So was it worth it? well, despite all the Korn hype, I would have to say that N.E.R.D. were the better live band. They gave a 100%, where else I personally felt Korn were predictable and self-absorbed, which i guess did do them justice in terms of delivering their genre of music, which was very overwhelming.
