\n6th October 2012 brought me to DoPPeL Kafe, at the Central Market Annexe. The stage was particularly dolled up.<\/p>\n

All shots from this event were from the Sony Alpha 77, Sigma 12-24mm F4.5-5.6 EX DG, Opteka 85mm F1.4, Sony Carl Zeiss Distagon T* 24mm F2.0 ZA SSM and Sony Carl Zeiss Sonnar T* 135mm F1.8 ZA.<\/p>\n


\nThis was the first time I’d be here in the day – what a different look compared to at night<\/a>!<\/p>\n


\nBeatlemania<\/a>, with Az Samad and friends! Here is Cheryl Tan on vocals.<\/p>\n


\nYin on camera.<\/p>\n


\nAz’s parents in the audience.<\/p>\n


\nAz’s PR manager, Yin, also handles videos and photos!<\/p>\n


\nKevin Theseira on bass.<\/p>\n


\nFast forward to 20th October 2012, for Guitar + Spoken Word + Uke<\/a>, with Az Samad and Davina Goh!<\/p>\n

All shots from this event were taken with the same lenses as the earlier, but with the Sony Alpha 900 instead.<\/p>\n


\nLittle did I know, this would be the last time I’d step foot into DoPPeL Kafe in its current location – not that there is a new one, yet. \ud83d\ude41<\/p>\n

This place was once the famous Liquid nightclub, then the retro Oh Malaya Cafe (2010), then DoPPeL Kafe (2012).<\/p>\n


\nJacky Lau, from Hong Kong. (Thanks Az and Yin for the updates!)<\/p>\n


\nHe had a very cool foot stool that helped with his fingerstyle guitar work.<\/p>\n


\nAz Samad on ukulele!<\/p>\n


\nIn scale to his guitar… well, kind of.<\/p>\n


\nCan anybody tell me what’s next?<\/p>\n


\nDavina The Entertainer!<\/p>\n


\nShe insists Az gets in the mood for some hip hop.<\/p>\n


\nThere’s also a kazoo.<\/p>\n


\nI brought my Asus Padfone keyboard dock at that time so I was able to make a collage on-the-fly with shots from my Sony Alpha 77, by copying these pictures from the SD card. This then went on Instagram<\/a>.<\/p>\n


\nI also bumped into Sasha, who had these awesome John Lennon\/Ozzy Osbourne shades.<\/p>\n


\nMe too!<\/p>\n


\nDavina, perpetual hippie, and spoken word artiste of the afternoon.<\/p>\n


\nI’ll now make a conveniently big jump to 19th December 2012 – The Malaysian Music Project with Az Samad & Cheryl Tan<\/a> at The Venue, Pavilion. I normally follow sequential order, but this time I’m grouping similiar events or people together to reduce repeated tagging. (Also, if I was to group sequential events, there would be too many pictures in the event that was supposed to follow.)<\/p>\n

All shots from this event were from the Sony Alpha 99, Sony Carl Zeiss Distagon T* 24mm F2.0 ZA SSM and Sony Carl Zeiss Sonnar T* 135mm F1.8 ZA – debuting the A99 for my gig pictures, really!<\/p>\n


\nCheryl Tan makes her take on Malaysian classics like Manbai – Kau Ilhamku<\/i>.<\/p>\n


\nAz on guitar.<\/p>\n


\nOne of two baju kebayas Cheryl wore, I think. <\/p>\n


\nOr are they baju kebahayas?<\/p>\n


\nBumped into Sasha again. Here’s that picture I took of you and friends that I apparently eventually somehow get, to you!<\/p>\n
