its been awhile since my last post. and a few things has changed i guess.
my family came over for a week long holiday. it was FUN! loved having them around. especially aqil! damnit. rindu sial....................................................................................................
also, mummy cooked loads of good food. best best. haha. but yea i miss them. mum for her just being a mum, dad for his advice, adrin for herself, aqil for being the CUTEST GODDAMN BABY ON EARTH. haha. serious rindu.
haihz. but anyway now its back to reality. haha. it particularly sucks now coz winter is just starting. and its fucking cold. and windy. not a good time to walk around =/
in addition to that me and aidah seem to be fighting more and worse nowadays. cam now if we fight, anything goes. can say anything that hurts, from both sides.
i dont like it. at. all.
sometimes we fight about the simplest things. and sometimes its not even a fight. its just she'll be annoyed by me but wont say anything and vice versa. haihz. hate it.
but on the plus side, when the times are good, its really good. like we really love each other and cuddle or stuff like that. those times mmg ada. but ntah. when we fight it just spoils it all.
it also sucks that when we fight, no one tends to be wrong. =) weird.
got my guitar from malaysia dah. haha. my parents brought it. i'm thinking of starting one of those youtube acoustic singers on youtube. i mean sure most suck, and those who become popular tend to be, well, lame. but ntah. its a cheap way to record my songs.
its kinda frustrating coz i know my song ideas are good in terms of riffs and chords and just the song itself. but my singing and lyric writing SUCKS. so ntah la... i guess try first and see what happens.
oh yea, something cool is about to happen! haha. AIDAH WANTS TO START TO PLAY BASS! jeah~ i dunno why i'm excited. its just i've always had this thing for girl musicians. and having the girl that i love to play one is, well, awesome. haha. i'm gonna try to teach her the basics and get a bass. hopefully it wont be one of those things she does where she gets excited abt something but stops halfway. meh. ntah la. but either way, if she does end up playing it, and i start a band with her, and people likes my songs, my life would be great. haha.
oh another thing i miss. jamming. :)
bye~

Gigs.
THE SUBWAYS WERE BRILLIANT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
...
ok, now that that's out of my system.. :P haha. best gila. went to watch them about 2 days ago at Carling Academy Bristol. they were awesome.
that night aidah and i were rushing gila babi coz the tickets said that it started at 7, and my class finished at 6.30. in the end i had to skip the 2nd half of my class to make it (dont worry i replaced it). so at about 6+ we got ready, went to the bus stop, took the first bus we saw, and 30 mins later, found our way to the place.
the place itself was best gak. it wasn't as big as like an auditorioum or a stadium, or as small as a bar or cafe like asiacafe. it was just nice. awal awal it was kinda empty, but once the subways came on, terus ntah camner jadi penuh gila. the sound system was AWESOME though. can hear everything clearly and juussttt nice. not too loud or too soft. best best.
the opening bands were ok la. there were two. first were The Volt. diorang mmg best. indie pop punk music. you should check them out. 2nd was another band, that was so boring i forgot their name. haha. End Of Me or something like that. they weren't bad la, i mean mmg terrer. but they were playing hard-rock, like seether or alterbridge kinda music. so tak kena with the crowd. the drummer got pissed off towards the end of their set coz of a lack of crowd reaction, that at the last song he flipped us off. haha. either that or he was reeeaaalllyy into his angry rockstar character.
anyway the wait in between the bands to set up etc was looonnngggg. about 30 mins each band. so The Subways only came on at about 9+.
they were awesome.
haha. serious best. and the crowd pun fun gak. NOT like the crowd at MCR live in kl. this crowd were jumping, moshing, singing along. best best. haha.
kalau nak slack sikit pun is the pushing shoving part kot. i mean i have no problems with just jumping or moshing, but i HATE crowds pushing left, right, front, back. i mean, people could trip and fall and get stepped on. haihz. that one kinda made me jaga jaga and pindah from centre of the stage to the side. but still close to the stage la.
i also took care of aidah and pulled her to *ehem* safety due to the crowd. hahaha. bukannya it was bahaya mana, but boyfriend worried about his girlfriend. of course la jaga gila gila!!! :P
my hand pun lenguh from recording and taking pics. haha. in the end, i didn't take much pics, and video pun was blurry and moving banyak, and ada parts i closed the mic. but heh, its all good. i'll post up the vids here and pics on facebook, in case people care enough to see. haha. tu pun guna camera aidah, so you'll see the same pics on aidah and i nyer accounts. haha.
when it was over, we tried to wait for the bus, but ntah why takde. so we took a cab instead. i dont mind using cab it we REALLY have to, coz its fucking expensive. but that time it was late and penat la.
also, i spent about 60 pounds on band merchandise. as if thats a surprise to those who know me. hahaha.
overall it was a good night la. sound was great. place was great. people were great. company was great. a good first gig in bristol. next up: slipknot, funeral for a friend, hoosiers, the volt etc (if dapat pergi. haha).
the next night plak, aidah and i went to another gig on campus, though its not so much a gig as it was a show. it was Hell's Bell's, UK's ''best AC/DC tribute band''.
yeah, i know.
haha anyway we went with aidah's housemates: melvin, nadira and khairul. reason we went pun is coz her housemates yang ajak. i mean i listen to the occasional classic rock. metallica, kiss, guitar hero rocks the 80's :P haha. and sure mmg la kenal the classic hits. but overall tak la layan sangat.
but anyway we went. paid 5pounds. it was alright la. better than wat i expected. the guitarist was superb. flawless. haha. and the band overall pun best la. good showmanship etc. makes me wonder why did they settle to being a tribute band and not a full on original new band. i mean they have the talent. its puzzling.
i mean if i ever started an MCR tribute band (stop laughing :P), i would make it as a side project and not a main band kinda thing. haha. ntah la.
anyway the show was ok la. after that they all came to my place, cooked something up, makan, balik. and i studied after that (at 3am. bagus bagus).
so thats it. 2 shows in 2 nights. and more to come hopefully. haha.
