it's an awesome show man. we were suppose to play 4 sets of 45 mins. halfway thru the 2nd set already people started dancing. its sooo confidence boosting ar. den they brought the liquor down. people start mixing it wif pepsi. i was soo close to drink 2 glass which would have knock me out. but i cant do dat. if i get drunk..it will ruin the show. some in the audience can see ar. clearly drunk. doing stupid stuff..dancing and talking shit. but the music was great. the DJ/MC was superb in spinning tunes. and a perfect nite for poker.
everithing finish ard 130 like. finished 130. we had to pack up. coz the next day got wedding. reached home almost 330 sia. watch a lil bit of golf by going to sleep and i even forget to take off my watch samo. den today up by 8 already. watch some tv and den rushed to bedok. today was just okie2 ar. there was alot of other musicians ar. and it turn out to be more of a jam session. i tink the most touching moment was when khacik maideen came to sing.
short intro: khacik maideen is well known in the music scene. he came in 2nd singapore's Md. rafi contest which another well known won, hussein malikan who died sometime dis year also. the last time i saw him was when he sang at one of our programmes, at dat time still in the fit of health. but just now, he lost alot of weight, and his leg was amputated due to diabetes. yet he was still deliver, in a wheelchair, wif dat melodious voice. legends of the hindi music empire in s'pore dis people was.
yeah, he sang afew songs, and i feel honoured to play. even i wonder will i ever get such recognition. it will be so cool sey. the tiredness got to me fast. by 3 like dat my head was spinning already. pop in 3 panadol and it was fine for awhile. next come sleepyness. den after programme, everibodi left leaving onli me, abg nasir and abg babal. den abg nasir send me home. shahnaz was there also. dats becoz her dad was there to cover keyboard for muhamad. wasted she got to go for some dance thingy. i would love to hear her sing kajra re sey. its beautiful man. like herself hehe.
