bt ur support will be forever appreciated ^^
den suddenly...



Jerry, a 6'3ft asian guy, with huge arms, strong built, and a very deep n cool voice came in..
the first impression he gave me was he is
the asian version of stone cold steve austin xDD..
he came in, told us he was the stage manager
and said that we nida prolong our performance as the band after us aint here yet..
we were like "wtf!?!"
lakia band -.-..
den we added one more song...
our competition song ...owh well...

Shut Up - Simple Plan...


we tried prolonging my bass solo, one more song bt still...
he said it aint enuff...
so he OFFERED to be a temporary member for us xDD
singing a chinnese song while he play the song xDD!
it was COMPLETELY impromptu...
dang...i really respect that man...
how often u see a guy that is confident enuff to say
"throw me a guitar, ill sing right NOW."
so we all agreed and he sang an old chinnese song :DD


then after the 1st band,
and after replying my last thank you to lesley,
i went on stage n did wat we came here to do xD...

Jerry :]]...I ENVY THIS MAN!!


so after playing our songs, the crowd wants ONE more song...
i was frozen solid, as one more song our band knew was

I Dont Love You by MCR...

so after awhile of thinking, we agreed agens...
the results of the song aint good!!! =((
sounded like fuck...bt guessed nobody knew dat hehehe xP..
after everythin, came down the stage n jz jumped around backstage xD...
we all had a great time up there n enjoyed it all..
