23rd January 2014: Laundry X An Honest Mistake Records Present: The Rock Show!

Sekumpulan Orang Gila.

Yes, they are twins!

Scott guest screams.

That is one heck of a cutaway horn!

Post-hardcore!

I brought my Sony Carl Zeiss Distagon 24mm F2.0 ZA SSM to get wide shots for a later band, but it turned out useful for this, too.

The vocalist from Heart A-Tack sings along in the crowd.

Ashley Chan, emcee for the night!

Oh hello!

Hello Is This The Band?

Why yes it is.

Pop punk rock.

Why yes, that is Darren Teh in the background.

Guest vocalist, in the middle.

I came to see this guitar-twirling band.

An Honest Mistake!

This was what wide-angle lenses were for.

I wanted to get their synchronized breakdown in a picture. I’d always been in the wrong place with the wrong focal length; this time, I’d stick to the front until my objective was completed!

Secondary objective – catch new vocalist Ashley Chan for the first time with the band!

She’s a dancer and a stage prancer, and a lot taller than Sheryl was. The perspective from the bottom of the stage is thus different.

Darren’s hair gets in his eyes.

Truth is, he’s prettier than a My Little Pony character.

For when you forget the chords…

This guy has too many notes to remember.

Ocean Of Fire!

The best shred rock band out of Penang.

Kelvyn Yeang is a monster on his scalloped Fender Stratocaster.

The Metaphor, post rock!

Tomas, who plays bass for An Honest Mistake, makes a wall of sound with his electric guitar duty here.

The Marquee…

…who ended the night.

Michael Leaner on vocals.

They’ve got an early 2000s rock sound which I really like. I haven’t heard stuff like this in a while.
