Songs on Repeat

by

Yes, as if blogging on Ubergizmo.com wasn’t enough, I’m also writing for a new blog with Seng Yip, Ferhan and Jason. It’s called Songs on Repeat, and it will be a blog that’s focused on music (who would’ve thought?). And no, I won’t be writing 30/day there, but you can expect something from me at least once a week. In fact, I’ve just written my first post for the blog today and you can check it out here.

Add us to your favorites, like us on Facebook and follow us on Twitter! We’ve only just started but hopefully it turns out to be something great. And yes, this blog will still be around for me to write stuff about my own life.

In other news, The Wishing had a great jam session today, and we’re feeling good enough to play our first show. We’ve got loads of stuff to share and we can’t wait to play to you guys live for the first time. Stay tuned!

Gig #69

by

69. Such an interesting number. Why? I’m not going to elaborate.

All I gotta say is, gig number 69. After about 3 years of playing live shows, I’m one gig away from #70. Yay. If you remember, my first open mic gig was back in May 2008 in Marketplace. Well, it’s been 3 years and one EP, and I don’t think I want to stop anytime soon. No sir. I want to write, play, sing and record even more than I did before.

But I think I might take a break from 2storeyheart and focus on the band I’m in at the moment – The Wishing. My guitar playing is not up to standard, I can’t keep time to save my life, so I’ll need to spend a lot more time practicing it. I’ll probably still write 2storeyheart material in my own time and do home recordings, but it won’t be my main focus anymore.

Well this Thursday will probably be the biggest of all the gigs I’ve played so far. Thanks to Darren of An Honest Mistake, I’ll be one of the performers for this week’s Thursday night at Laundry Bar, the Curve. Do come and watch! I don’t think I’ll be playing at such a huge location again anytime soon, and entry is free. Drinks aren’t free though, but hey, you came for the music right? 😛

Hope to see you guys there. Drop a request in the comments/Facebook/Twitter if there’s a song you want to hear. Haha. I haven’t figured out a setlist yet, so any suggestions are welcome.
