I was at Marine Cove yesterday for Zero Infinity! :P Yes! Yes! Yes! I was at the Straits Times 160th guess the riddle thing because there was the School Of Rock band preview and ZI would be performing!
I was pretty bummered because I thought I couldn't make it. I mean, bummer lah! Haha. Before I called Dearie on Friday I wasn't expecting it to be in the morning (the Marine Cove thingy) and then I told my tuition teacher it was a-ok for a morning tuition session from 8.30am to 10.30am. So yeah. Was all set, then I called dearie and he told me that the performance (at least theirs) was at 10.50am. I was like you know the sweatdrop in anime? And then theres this gloomy black backdrop thing? Haha. Yeah I was like that.
So dearie said he'd pay for my cab fare if I zoomed down after my tuition since I was so bummered about it and I wanted to watch them so badly.
So yeah...
After tuition yesterday I took MRT to Bedok and wanted to catch a cab there when I couldn't! Haha. And then Dearie called to say there was a HUGE jam.
So I took MRT again, this time to Eunos to catch bus no. 13 which was supposed to get me to Marine Parade and I'm supposed to walk through the underpass.
When I reached there was this crowd. I mean INCREDIBLE human jam! I was like, "Is this the right place a not?"
It was. And I didn't know why everyone was all over the place.
Found out later that there was a lucky draw for a Mazda car! No wonder! So kiasu leh! The human jam was the kind of pack body to body type where you have to cling onto your bag or risk getting stuck.
I squeezed from the pathway near the beach all the way into the Marine Cove area. Oh my GAWD! I was gasping for air! :X I JUST WANT TO SUPPORT MY FAVOURITE BAND! LIKE GIMME A BREAK OLD PEOPLE. I was wondering if the bands had so many relatives or something. Then I heard the MC talk about the Mazda... GAH! So thats what its all about!
I squeezed all the way, panicking... I mean, what if I couldn't see them? CANNOT! So I took out my phone and tried to call but the signal was jammed or something. Couldn't get my call connected! So I was stuck outside Cafe Gelare, together with other sweaty bodied individuals whose only aim is to hope to win a MAZDA CAR. ULTIMATE BUMMER.
Its really weird, but after the lucky draw, WHOOSH. Gone is the crowd and I was like running home run to the stage! Haha. Lucky me, Zero Infinity wasn't performing yet. *BLISS*
Hohoho.
They were great! I mean, who doesn't love good music right? Haha. I thought it was mighty catchy! :P ZERO INFINITY YOU GUYS DID GREAT LAH! Heh. I haven't seen them so into giving a performance before. I mean usually Hanafie serenades his microphone stand, Dearie looks constipated and stoned, Sutrisno looks very focussed and Jue Yi just drums, but yesterday they were much much much MUCH more alive.
Hanafie was serenading the audience, making lots of eye contact and all, Dearie looked a bit worried but he and Su did a fantastic jump in the air thingy at the end which was pretty cool! Haha. And the whole feel of the song was like pulled up a notch cos it was just so much faster and all. :)
Okay people! ZERO INFINITY is gonna perform for the SEMIS at Junction8 this coming weekend! AHHH! MUST GO SUPPORT AND VOTE VOTE VOTE UNDERSTAND! Do ALL this for the sake of good music! Singapore needs it! :)
Haha. On the way back from Marine Cove, there was a jam. So it WAS for the MAZDA. Haha. One mazda... ONE HUGE JAM. So greedy! I mean that means most of them have cars already! Then what are they doing lusting for another! *TUT TUT TUT* Hehe. So Singapore of us ah! Haha. Always aim for more. Not really a bad thing, but yea, it irks me that I had to push through a crowd who weren't interested in bands only the Mazda! :C
And quoting one old uncle to his wife, "Oh no! A band is playing, I repeat a band is playing. Lets go."
So mean! :P MEAN OLD MEANIE! Like your MAZDA is most important liddat! HARUMPH!
LOVE MUH DEARIE. Why? Cos hes so sweet... And he looks so cute when he's sleeping.
Lots and Lots of Love,
