goodbye dear friends...Regarding what time nic's show is going to start..well..i'm not too sure what time.if some how i managed to find out b4 i leave then i'll post. I actually called nic up but he's on the way to rehearsal..so couldn't really talk..rushing.
Since Quizzy_me was asking regarding the keyboard research, here's one of the keyboards(CME VX7) i was considering...
But now i've given up on this one and moving on to another cos i read the forums and it seems like if u update the firmware(version) it solves some bugs but creates more! and i can't rely on a 'beta' type of keyboard that has to be updated with XP!no mac no vista! wow.. scary ya? so in our business, reliability is the key cos we're playing on stage and if half way the keyboard turns into a brick.. yikes..but this new company CME, is moving in the right direction..but it just hasn't reached it's goal of producing a world class pro keyboard. It has motorised faders,internal audio interface,a hell load of knobs pads wheels ribbon,U-ctrl technology, can be expanded into a synth! and more.. of course the hot red will definitely rock the stage.. but not anytime soon.. i'll defintely check it out again in the near future. but for now.. i'm aiming for another keyboard..just hope the good ppl at CME will continue to work hard.
It's times like this that i think of my yamaha MO8..and know that it's really reliable workmanship..but yamaha has got to be careful. There are many new competitors..so it's good for the consumer(me!).
btw if ur thinking, why new keyboard? dun u already have that coffin? haha..well, i'm looking for a midi controller keyboard instead - a sort of shell controller that doesn't have any sounds inside. it needs to be connected to another device (eg. laptop) to 'speak'. and it's time i try out half keys heh heh..
sayonara then... take care mlbians..
bugs? see lah.. that's the problem with technology manns. and yes.. thats like.. no vista? that's real bad considering now everything goes by vista already.. aint sure about mac but shd be impt since ya guys using it for ur music ya..
well.. more choices isnt it? but better do more research and check out more before you really make ur decision, lest regretting it in e future.
talk too much already, ha. have a great time at camp! we'll be there to support nic tomorrow.. dont worry, we'll take care of him while you're away. (: cyahh guys soon!
hmm, aint sure if i intepreted what you said correctly.. jus wondering.. if it has to be connected to another device before it can play, gonna be quite mafan isnt it? so you wont be able to play if your other device dies on u or smth? hmms.
know nuts about such thinggs.. interested though.. haha. :P
takecare at camp!
weiqi,
thanks for explaining the keyboard thingy, but it sounded too chim for ppl likes me who know nothing much about music. hehe...
hope you enjoy your church camp, and be it a best times for you to relac. btw, is sam leaving with you?
ya, not to worry too much about nic performing & representing MLB alone this evening. We will be there to give him our fullest support. :)
nic,
if you know what time you will be on stage this evening, pls let us know. Thanks.
sam,
if you are going to the church camp with weiqi, hope you will enjoy & find times to relac too.
anyway, all three of you must jia-you & have great times regardless of where you are, ok? also to fellow mlbians, cheers...
hahahaha. thanks weiqi for sharing~
all i understand is - the one that u were considering earlier - if the 'beta' type has to be updated with XP, can i say its super outdated liao? haha.
haha then your criteria for world class pro keyboard, that one i dun understand le hoho.
and friends, if you managed to find out what time nic will be appearing, sms me ok? Cos i won't be logging here tomorrow haha. thanks~
so tomorrow i'll make my way down after work lo. hehe. cya tomorrow, nic and mlbians~ and to weiqi and sam, have fun there? hehe.
wooh~~
i must say.. that was a pleasant surprise tt nic brought for us.. (=
it's nice to see nic being a rocker and he really rocked the stage just now with the other performers from amber, man tou and jing bao yue tuan. *smiles* even though the vocals part were pretty covered up by the music. but nic definitely rocks man~~
nic, i guess your eye infection has healed? cux you aint wearing specs today.. or rather, dun tell me you went for the lasik surgery arh?? =X hees.. or perhaps you're just wearing CLs ba.. take care bro~ you look real tired..
shall cya guys the next time when we meet ba.. hahas =P
haha...i'm darn lei...tomorrow work morning too...lol...
today i scolded by customer "stupid" wor! hahahahaha -_-!! that was so upsetting but well, ok de la~~
ah nic saves the day too~~
that was a pleasant surprise as mentioned by pegg...hehe...I'm so glad I managed to go...
and we were discussing - nan de nic don't have to do sound check today...*hello hello up the volume*
hehehe...
go go nic! u rock!!
wooh it was and eye-opening experience watching some of the new superbands performing, though I THINK i can agar the outcome ba? haha don't know leh~~
take care lo milubing and MLBians~
Wow, the performance by Nic & the gang was really a surprise to all of us. Nic, although you are skinny but you are muscular de lor.
Ya, agreed with pegg that Nic rocked the whole stage. Luckily, I never miss this show.
Wondering any MLBian has recorded? Can share with the rest who have missed a great performance.
Nic,
I love that performance very much, for once you are completely doing a solo without guitar. Hope to see more in future! Your stage show-man-ship has improve tremandously. Well done, continue to Jia-you...
Btw, seem likes you also sweat lesser as compare to last times.
Believe your eyes are getting better, I saw it after you pointed to me. Take care & have more rest. :)
Oh, how was your posting out? Why is there a sudden change? You only left about another 6~7mths before you ORD rite? Anyway, All the BEST to you regardless where you goes to. Cheers...
weiqi & Sam,
You should be very proud of you brother, he has put up a very great show. And we have never failed to be there supporting him.
Alright, have fun at your church camp. Hope to see MLB in full force on stage again soon. :)
haha..
nic ur performance i was really stun on the spot..LOL ! was quite a suprising performance to me.. seeing u perform like tt for the first time..=X
i had the video.. still processing in process.-_- so had to wait for a while. got le i will give u the link here ya! haa..=D
well done nic! (: perform well ya! kekeke ! and yes do gain more weight soon all right -_-"
take care nic! :D
whoo take care weiqi and sam on ur trip out! 6 days of relaxation seem so heavenly(:
and yes weiqi must must must do alot of research before you buy a new keyboard. forums are very impt! i regretted so much buying my hp after reading reviews and articles cuz they din reflect much of the bad points. only read the forums after i bought the hp and it started to cock up like less than a week i bought it. and i think the kind of keyboard that needs to connect to another device to speak will allow better sound projection hur instead of using mic to receive sound from the keyboard~ then we can hear ur keyboard even clearer and louder next time(:
haiya wasted that i was stucked at home, supposedly to study for mye then wasn't able to go down to support.. unfortunately i wasn't disciplined enough to study, argh wasted my time and wasted not watchin the performance..
oh and to nic, in case you didn't realise, you can put ur name at the choose an identity>Name/URL there then dun have to put under anonymous. jux a suggestion though(:

joke of the day:
" Man shoots self while showing how to handle a gun
Mon Jun 2, 3:28 PM ET
ALEXANDRIA, La. - An Alexandria man was recovering after accidentally shooting himself while showing his girlfriend how to handle a pistol on Saturday in the parking lot of a fast-food restaurant.
ADVERTISEMENT
Police said the 21-year-old man told investigators he forgot he had just reloaded the gun, and squeezed the trigger while putting the gun into the driver's door panel. The bullet went through his inner left thigh.
Police said the man repeatedly told investigators he was ex-military and knows how to handle a gun, and was very embarrassed by the incident."

Bands, nick some advice from Nic from MiLuBing!
And guess who made an appearance at the Channel U ALWAYS FUN Party held at IMM Garden Plaza last Sunday? It’s Nic of MiLuBing!
As the guitarist of SuperBand 1’s champion band, Nic offered some advice for the current contestants of SuperBand 2.
“I think that most importantly, you have to enjoy yourself. Friendship is very important,” said Nic. “Put in your utmost effort and don’t give up. Don’t get threatened by other bands. They might be better than you, but they may not necessarily get into the next round. We (MiLuBing) were not as good as some of the other bands.”
Being a vocalist himself, Nic also has some tips for fellow vocalists! He advised them to be sure of their voices and take more herbal tea.
“Sometimes during the song, you can’t hear yourself and you will start screaming instead,” he explained. “But you have to be sure of your voice. It’s not your fault, it’s the environment. Just sing like you normally sing, don’t push it all out.”
His last words? “Don’t try to be something you’re not. Be something you really are on stage. Express yourself and enjoy yourself thoroughly,” said Nic.
Welcome back. I thought sam went with u? Weiqi nic peform great right? Haha. He ROCK the stage on tat day at imm. Hee. Hope u enjoy it.
Where is SAM? Haha. It quite long that sam havent blog or tag. Nvm. I noe that he will tag or blog when he is free. Hee. Can understand that u all are busy with 2nd album & other stuff. =)
Hey hey guys, long time no see... can't remember when the last time i see weiqi, beatbox champ? Have to give the performance of last 2 weeks a miss due to exam. And now its finally over, and I can relax a bit now, before school starts again in 3 weeks.
My partime camera woman did take some vids of the performance for me... and they can be nominated for the best sound effect and best picture. I'm going to name it the Blair Witch Project III. hmm... maybe becauseI didn't pay her, thats y.
Hi weiqi,
Welcome back. So, have you enjoyed yourself at the camp? Have you find times to relac?
Didn't know that Sam never go with you (as most of us thought), so where did Sam goes to?
Hope to see you 2 bros on stage again soon! MLB Jia-you... :)
Arolf,
Wow, you got your personal partime camera lady taking photos & vid for you huh? Why? She never captured at the right spots izzit? Haha...
Ya lor, you never pay her then she got no money to eat, so how to hold the camera for so long? And you expecting good results? Hehe...
Must be damn shiok right now, since your exams over & having holidays now. Times for relaxation.
penguin,
