7th November 2012: I went down to La Bodega, Bangsar, to find ex-colleague and all-year-long metalhead Karencore!
Joined by harpist Zhin Wong.
The night was young and we aspired to be young, too.
Rik Omar on drums. (Thanks to Zhin, who helped me figure out most of the names!)
Tricia Priscilla D’Cruz! Saladin meanwhile was on guitar.
Please pardon the reduction in detail due to noise reduction due to the necessary use of ISO25600 on the Sony Alpha 99 since I only brought a Sigma 12-24mm F4.5-5.6 EX DG, hardly the best lens for low light. Also, this is a crop, which excarbates this.
Tricia can sing, and the band is top-notch!
They played covers. Linet Goh on keyboards.
After the intermission, Zhin and the band were introduced, and he was invited up on stage! Here he is doing a showdown while covering Alicia Keys – Fallin’.
Video of that performance, thanks to Zhin (and Karen the videographer!)
Zhin Wong, professional harp-player.
Funky bassist Don Alfonso.
Daniel Guerzo Soliano joins on keyboards.
They then break into Jimi Hendrix – Little Wing!
Karen and Tricia.
