alot of times, i never really talk abt the band on my blog. occasionaly, i'll have a brief notice abt some upcoming gig or watnots but other than that, not much.
the band's not doing much lately cuz arthur's still away in UK for his overseas work training program & will only be back late june. hence, our declination to take part in this year's street fest, as much as we hate to do so.
we may or may not be playing at the next batch of monday sessions at barnone. would be a real privelage considering the alumni of bands that have played there so far(i.e. the observatory, electrico, lunarin...etc). nothing's firmed up yet so i shouldn't hold my breath yet. would be nice though..cuz we'll be showcasing most of the new songs that ppl have yet to hear.
i'm planning to do a collaboration with another local outfit. i won't reveal any names yet but if plans run smoothly, we hope to pull in another biggie in the local scene that we respect. maybe, there might even be a cd release. i'll be on board this as a solo. as usual, nothing's concrete but i really hope this works out cuz i'm pretty excited at the possibilities.
i'm currently working as an intern recording/mixing engineer at focal pro studios. pretty interesting bands i've seen so far & hope to work with some good bands. if anyone out there wants to do a band recording, just drop me a note & i'll get back to ya.
well, there u go. a pretty pointless rant on the current status of my life.
was at the coffeeshop near my place earlier on with eric, zhigao, changqing & zhicao. we were just having some coffee. moments after we sat down, we noticed this guy with a bag who look pretty stoned standing around.
we thought nothing of him till he sat a table next to us. seemed that he was a mute(maybe, or pretending to be one) & was begging for money. i was contemplating giving him some cash, or maybe a ciggarette till he got a little too friendly for my taste. he came over to our table & started giving some thumbs up like he was trying to befriend us. but we just kept quiet & he walked back to his table.
soon after, at the corner of our eyes, we noticed him picking his feet. could tell that he had some sort of infection or rash around the ankle area under his socks. the killer part came when he actually picked at his scar tissue & ate em. that turned all of us off big time. soon, he was going over to tables & eating up leftovers from finished plates. he whacked at least 3 tables from wat we saw. the whole experience was very uncomfortable.
what if one day, that same circumstance befalls on us. what will i do. what would you do? can we really live life bravely if some terminal disease hits us. can we face challenges even though bad times hit us really hard?
