Rewind to October 1st 2005, Berjaya Times Square, for hitz.tv’s second anniversary.<\/p>\n


\nJason Lo<\/b> says, “call me<\/i>“.<\/p>\n


\nLeft to right: Deja Voodoo Spells<\/b>, Edge Of Fire<\/b>, Admonition<\/b>‘s hothothot vocalist.<\/p>\n

There were also a bunch of veteran-looking musicians doing a cover of Search – Isabella<\/i>. Or maybe they were<\/b> Search. I don’t know.<\/p>\n

October 14th, I headed to Jamasia to rock out with Reta<\/a>. (No, no pills are required to headbang, just a good appreciation for rock.)<\/p>\n


\nQings & Kueens<\/b> with some good old rock and roll. (I cheated and used black and white because I couldn’t fix the color.)<\/p>\n


\nEdge Of Fire having a reunion with the original singer and writer of their hit power ballad, Whole Again<\/i>.<\/p>\n


\nBe Jaya<\/b> has the Joe Satriani of Malaysia.<\/p>\n


\nLeft: His son says hi to his bassist’s leg; right: every shredder has to do some left-handed tapping.<\/p>\n


\nNaked Breed<\/b>, the only band I knew was playing before coming. Haha.<\/p>\n


\nJack seems stunned by the sudden white lighting. Jamasia lights often alternate too fast, frustrating flash-less photographers.<\/p>\n

Forward to October 26th, HELP prom band auditions. How cool is that? Instead of paying bands to come play for the prom, they come and compete for free entry to the prom.<\/p>\n


\nSo you wanna be a hot dancer? (They alternated between bands and dance performances earlier.)<\/p>\n


\nInsulyna<\/b>, grunge band.<\/p>\n


\nDo not be fooled by menacing-looking BC Rich guitars. Have the laugh of your life when the vocalist comes on stage and sings off-key, Ah Beng style.<\/p>\n


\nThis band was better. I chose this picture for stim-girl, who I dragged, promising hot bass players she could fancy. We also camwhored during boring bands, but the pictures won’t be uploaded as I can’t link to her. \ud83d\ude1b<\/p>\n


\nA band from Indonesia proceeds to steal our thunder.<\/p>\n


\nThe ultimate recycled band.<\/p>\n


\nFunction-Z<\/b>, a church band that keeps getting better.<\/p>\n


\nSome dude who did a medley of James Blunt, John Mayer and heavier things.<\/p>\n


\nIt seemed like these people just got on stage unannounced. Ah well, such organization is expected in HELP events. At least the chick was cute.<\/p>\n


\nFinally, the reason I was here – to finally see Syefri<\/a> play bass (and Seng Yip<\/a> play drums) for Dreaming To Sleep<\/a>, an emo band. Well the emoness is most identifiable in George<\/a>‘s voice, which is spot on emo like he was imported from the States and dyed his hair black.<\/p>\n

There you go, all you demanding people, the gig pictures for October 2005. I’m going to spend the rest of the day I took leave for, to sleep.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
