: Hey MLBians... wow been so long since I came here le.. really had a tough time with my FYP but now it's sorta over :) just left with some smaller details and preparation for grad show in June. Hope everyone's doing fine here.
I guess nowadays, facebook is the way to go (in fact i joined kinda late) but well, just in case mlbians didn't know, the 3 of us have accounts there :)
Mlbians can add me via http://www.facebook.com/chanweiqi

So.. now tat school's over, "wat's next"? Expand this post to find out :)



i guess that's the big question. Well, for now, I'm gonna back Nic up at Echo Music China Town as his side-kick! Gonna be teaching keyboard classes there from now on :D just a little inside info, i am working on the beatboxing syllabus too so that I can start a vocal percussion course at echo too. :p

So to summarize...
Nic and Wei Qi teaching at Echo music chinatown.
Sam teaching drums at pomo and creative kids lessons too.
MLB is down due to hardware issues (white pony is constantly acting up, and now my laptop can't enter windows due to hardware failure, called the repair center up but they say need to change whole motherboard for a ridiculous price...)

How not to ever give up in any particular situation or instance?

Step one :
Don't give in to foolish thoughts of failure.

Step two :
Don't give up.


We all have our personal Vendettas...

Take a deep breath.. move on!

Cheerios!

Yea.. this kid needs midnight entertainment haha..

7 am time to sleep.. tml its workin' on music again..

Anyways.. got the Chocs.. the new yr goodies.. Thankoo millions!!! Lurvely people.. lurvely.

The amazing collector's editing Jimmi Hendrix picks wth!! That I wont use.. NEVER!

Haha..

Thanks for all the heartfelt kind little gifts.. Personally... I dont deserve (or expect) anything more than the satisfaction of having the best job in the world.. in not the best part of the world though in terms of $$ haha.. thats the sad part aye..

kidding.. anyways...

Thank you all..

in total...

(Names kept secret...)

2 packs of choco finito..

1 more 80% cocoa.. must eat little by little.. concentrated *haI*tz!!

New yr goodies done!

Xiao Ding Dang plush kept and cuddled..

Jimmi hendrix Pix Kept for admiration purposes ONLY!!!!

Fender thin pick will be used.. hoping to get some nice guit tracks on album (first time see such pick definitely must experiment... triangle big big one)

Thank you all!! Intro some thing too..

V picks..

http://www.guitarjamdaily.com/index.php/reviews/65-gear-reviews/2084-gear-review-v-picks.html

Little people know that a pick can alter your entire sound.. from 20% - 60%

This kinda a love hate relationship for me.. each pick cost ard 5 - 15 sgd .. got 2 diff ones in my artillery.. The fender's added to my armoury now operationally ready!! ORD! haha.. Love the thickness of sound on this thing (due thickness 3 50cent coins for one of the models).. hate because of the "clicking" sound caused by thick picks' meterial fiberglassish kinda resin.

Oh well.. guess I'm talking too much music..

In pop industry must talk more on how interesting my life is.. Being in the media light etc etc.. OOPS.

Heckz.

To me.. Music is my life :)

Friends that stay by me are my life.

Family that love me gave me life :)

I enjoy hiding in my cave.. preparing music to give to the world..

Doing more music to keep the flame of passion and of fellow passionists alive..

KUDOS to all awake! Gd night!


Oh My Goodness. The pick box better not scratch. The Sender should know what I mean :)

What is to come...

Thanks all for buying our album.. anyway to clear up..

more album sales not really equals more income for the band.. it gives the band a better portfolio for future ventures.. the bulk of money goes back to investors who threw in loads of cash for the production.. they have to take back somewhere..

It took lots of faith.. and lots of money thrown in.. we're appreciative of that ever so much..

We're hoping for good sales to assure people that music is a possible investment in singapore..

To sum up.. artistes are always struggling if we're SG based. WE ARE. It's due to the the typical mindset that foreign products are better. Which may be true. WHY???

We are not full time PAID artistes. To set the record straight.. we're part time.. NOT TRAINED. NOT GROOMED.. NOT FINANCIALLY ASSISTED. Learning through experience and elder's (of the trade's) guidance.. Honing our skills as we go along.. throwing in our every cent into passion.

Sidetrack.. example : my Mac white was a "donation" by my dad. I couldn't afford the purchase personally.

I've learnt much through this journey. How long more can passion last me? Checking ATMs for my next Giro pay? Hoping my cheques goes through to last me the next mth?

It's an irony, my smile on the stage and how it simmers away when off stage.. Only when the music is on, the smile unknowingly appears again.

I feel guilty for being me.

I feel grateful that so many people are behind us.

The greatest joy that SS show night was the screams so loudly heard on TV...

The greatest joy for me is to bring joy on stage. I hope to be able to continue to do so.. to sing if i may.. to make music if i may.. to inspire if I may..

And God help me survive and keep myself afloat and sane while doing so..

Not letting myself down, being who I am, but a better me to come.

If I have to be an ARTISTE to be an ARTIST. I will have to give it a go.

This lil boy just wants to make music and shake his bon bon on stage *sigh*.

Can't get myself to "ai mu xu rong".

Oh well. The TRUTH is not necessarily beautiful at first glance.. But it's the imperfection that makes it real..

Cheers and have a gd night :)

SS show...
milubing | 03 January, 2010 01:12

wow, today felt like a gathering instead.. cos so many mlbians turned up. thanks to all who came! and also not forgetting yuan ping for helping despite her fyp. it really touched the 3 of us, and we're really thankful for having supporters like you all. thank you all for the presents(we know that most of u are students so dun need presents), but the greatest present is your support, so we're more than happy le. Take care u all, and thank you all for helping with the voting(long hu bang) too!


quite a number of u asked about the mac, and what we are going to do about the issue. We understand your concern and good intentions, but we will not want any of you or our friends and family to go to the expense of aiding us in this area, because it is not dealing with the root of the problem. It is the responsibility of our band and band management to handle such technical issues. For the past 3 years, the equipment of the band has been built upon our shows/savings and our self-studying(going online to read up etc.) and in order for the band to continue striving to greater heights, the issue has to be solved, and not covered up.
