Esplanade 2008 .. The great minds and times ..
It was a great performance yesterday! So far the best one I've ever had this year. Except that the sound system went haywired again for a short while.
It was the best out of all the performances that I've had so far this year. Still remembering those times when things didn't go my way and wasn't what I expected. Well, these are memorable dates to remember ..
11 January 2008 - Carelink Peformance. A great debut as a performer. It was calm, controlled but it didnt turn out very well somehow, but it was great to perform there.
7 March 2008 - Seniors Fair performance .. A bad start performing in public. Unexpected. It was not that horrible, but it was bad. Anw, forget about that, it was my most enthusiastic day. Good crowd, good support.
7 March 2008 - Claps Performance, the biggest public performance for December Identity at that time. Also, the most SCREWED. Totally embarrassed ourselves. That's where I realised, I didnt want to be in that position of being embarrassed anymore. We've got little support there.
30 March 2008 - The day Edy Ali smashed us with harsh words saying that we took the Anugerah Band Auditions like a practice session. I knew by then we had to do something.
December Identity broke up in mid April and Foto left the club because he couldnt stay anymore. Everything fell apart. But Helmi and I decided to do something to relive the spirit that Foto once brought to the club.
Credits to Helmi for opening the youth club every Saturday to teach the kids new songs. Due to our hard and consistent practice, we decided to perform together with the kids in August. And our first stop ..
18 August 2008 - CHIJ Toa Payoh Secondary. A great place to perform at. It was a pleasure. It was also my debut performance as a lead singer. Hot girls, sexy guys (us), hehe, it was just wonderful. Awesome.
24 August 2008 - ESPLANADE .. The best performance this year. I hope this is not the end. I'm craving for more performances. Sadly, the best performance so far is where ALL my friends couldnt turn up in time. Whatever happened emotionally inside of me before and after the performance is for me to know and for them to find out. Maybe, they didnt know how much I wanted them to be there. What I know is, this performance was for Helmi, because he might not get anymore chances to perform again.
Bakthiar didnt get to perform. I felt sorry for what happened to his grandma. But he'll get another chance someday. He's still young.
Anw, I hope the journey towards publicity and popularity will not end here. Thanks guys. This is just the beginning. =)
I will be there to take your place .. (When u go for NS. hehe)
