Why Would I Write

  • An unexpected win. Gig #35

    A bag full of Loreal goodies and a polo T-shirt sits next to me, undeservedly. A prize I got for making it through the first heats of Library’s Got Talent. Yes, I made it through. But it wasn’t a walk in the park.

    It was a real wake up call. Even I found it hard to believe that there were people out there who thought AMDW was boring. Yeah, I know I’ve only played it to a handful of people, but I’ve received nothing but praise for that song, and today was the first time ever I’ve been burnt for it. I guess there’s a first time for everything. I’m not saying I wrote the best song in the world, but it’s one of the stronger songs I’ve written. Time to improve.

    After the 3 Xs, I was ready to go home without any consolation. But I’m so glad I got a second chance at this competition. Thanks to everybody who came to support me. Without you guys, tonight would have been the total failure I thought it would be. I’ll try harder for the quarter finals. See you guys in December!

    Oh, and tomorrow night (if work permits) I’ll be playing at the open mic in Groove Junction which starts at 9pm. Come and enjoy the show! This time I guarantee there won’t be any Xs to throw me off the stage 😛

  • Gig #34

    This afternoon I received a last minute call to perform at Mardi Gras, 1Utama tomorrow for Syok Shock. Since I never say ‘no’ to a gig, I said ‘yes’, and so I’ll be playing tomorrow night! Time to get back into the groove. I’ve been stagnant for too long! Anyway, if you guys are free to drop by, do attend the gig and show some love 😀 Here’s the facebook event page. The gig is supposed to start at 930pm. Entry is free, and booze is cheaper than normal nights. So, make your way there!

  • Gig #32, Gig #33 and Twitter.

    As most of you guys know, I entered ‘Library’s Got Talent’ and I’ll be playing at the first heats on the First of November. At the rehearsal I’ve seen who I’m up against, and I really have no chance at the RM30,000 grand prize. But I figured, ah what the heck- it never hurts to try, and I’m glad for the exposure/publicity I’ll be (hopefully) getting. So anyway, it’s gonna be on a Sunday night, 8pm.

    The next gig I have will be some cocktail party event that my little sister had to organize with a group for her assignment. Anyway it will be at some hotel somewhere, I don’t even know the final details about it yet, and I’m not sure if it’s open to public either (I think it should be). So I’ll have to keep you guys posted on that.

    In other news, I’m on twitter! Haha. I don’t use it that much, but I will definitely use it to post short blogs/gig news etc. I’ll get the widget up on this blog, In the mean time you can follow me: http://www.twitter.com/goodnewsgeorge.
