I reached home at 11.30 yesterday, which wasnt what i had expected. but nvm, these were the things that happen yesterday...

HAVEN sort of started at 2.10 when it was supposed to start at 12.40, thanks to the "professional" players they hired. They can't even come on time de. No wonder the drummer can rush and give beats that are not steady. Zab was like writing my new name(nahnay) all over the score, and just random stuffs so that we wont sleep as its sort of boring. She got a new name too, Porridge Tail Green(Direct translation of her chinese name), muahaha. I only like 2 pieces out of don't know how many. The remaining ones are just normal lar. Hopefully it will sound and look impressive with the cast.

BOTB was nice, and fun. Duty was average, performances were ultra high, and the atmosphere was really good. Shua will agree with me =). Cresecent girls band was the most disappointing de. 2 vocalists singing in 2 diferent keys, and then 2 guitarist in another key, that makes it poly-tonal? Second song the girl playing the piano(i supposed we can call her a keyboardist) didnt even switched on her power =.=but at least they have quite a lot of supporters...TK vocalist's good, violinist was doubling the melody in the same octave, and not in tune, which basically just spoiled everything. Deluge was owning nicely, power drummer and nice guitarist, except the vocalist wasn't as powerful, but overall performance was good. Barker had super duple lot of supporters, which made crowd control a bit difficult especially when most of them refused to listen to us. Barker's band was another super good one, and the vocalist was good. Only bad thing is that the lead guitarist never tune his guitar properly, and that the drummer got weaker towards the ending, not enough stamina perhaps. ACS international's band was above average, but just lack the punch in it, and i must say they have the least number of supporters...
So the results came and CG got 5th, International 4th which i didnt expect that, TK 3rd, my class's band 2nd, quite sad, and barker first. But its okay, good experience i must say for them. while barker band played their closing winning song, one of the amps nearly caught fire, it was smoking like mad, and all of us could smell burning metal. Too high le. And after this thing was over, there was a gang fight(if im not wrong) at the new parade square there, where the police were called in. Dunno who started it de, but i think it wasnt that serious, as in no one got injured.. 3 cheers for deluge. =P
