Finally, the day has arrived, and I can now wear "My Completness" t shirt with a purpose: to be acknowledge by the band! (hopefully!)Emma, Qiddin & I left home late (coz I finished my class at 8pm, and the show starts at the same time), plus, we got lost.. so at around..hmm, 8.50pm, we finally found 'the Gov'. Emma dragged me to the front of the stage, and we stayed at the same spot the whole night through.
When we arrived, the first band was already performing halfway. (I didn't get their name..so not too sure who) The place wasn't as crowded yet, the songs were okie. The lead singer was rather cute. Hmm, thats all I have to say about this band.
During the first interval, this comedian (I'm assuming) was telling the crowd lots of swearing jokes. (some were really horrying! whatever)Emma got a free ticket to watch a comedy act in march, but its only for 1 person. well, she got the freebies anyway.
"The Camels" were up next, and they were very loud group. By that time, Emma & I were already right infront of the lead guitarist, which happens to be cute! (except for his weird hairdo,which looked more like a cookie monster!). Theres one part of the performance where he smiled at Emma, and Emma was being all shy & girly with him! whaat lahh.hehe..The crowd was bigger this time round. The band performed their songs, and they did their version of "You're just too good to be true..can't take my eyes off you", which was so cute, in a rock & roll style! Their final song (am assumming it is their hit song) was "I've been a very bad puppy dog". Now thats another "cute rock & roll " song as well! hehe..
After they performed was another interval..and the comedian did his 'swearing thing' again. Then DJs were playing some R&B songs. (heyy..hoo...heyy..hoo) At the same time, the band members of Thristy Merc were preparing their stuff on stage, and people starting to scream. I managed to get an auntograph from the lead guitarist only. (well, better than nothing right?) And at this time, the entire room was packed. It was quite obvious that most of them wereThristy Merc's loyal fans. (I'm considered to be a fan of their songs, so thats a lil diff :D)
So finally, THRISTY MERC was in the house! Boy they rock! The crowd were waving hands, screaming, ..you name it. Then suddenly, the 4th song they played was .."My Completeness!" woohoo~ I was SO happy, singing to every line of the lyrics.. I recorded 3/4 of the song in my camera, and I was trying to get them see my t-shirt during my song. Unfortunately, they didn't see me! =( But, about 2 songs after that, the lead singer saw me & my tshirt, and he mouth out "Nice Shirt!" YEAAYY!! He saw it! Emma & I were screaming excitiedly! woohoo~ The Uni photographer took a pic of me soon after, and boy I feel proud wearing the tshirt! hehe... Everyone was singing along to "Summertime", "Someday, someday"..and also to their version of "..baby, one more time"! (It was wicked!) and they ended the show with "Emancipate myself"~ THRISTY MERC ROCKS! YEAAHHH....
The minute the show ended, Emma dragged me to outside of "The Gov"& staright to the parking lot (she hates crowds..esp. in small areas). The next thing we know, Emma Spore, Aaron, Amanda & this Hongkie guy wanted a ride from Qiddin. Lucky thing that everyone lived in Hartley's (except for the Hongkie guy, but his house was on the way anyway). So imagine, there were 7 ppl in one car,with me & Amanda sitting on the back floor of the car. sheasshh.. But we reached home safely.. (lucky thing there were no police checks that night!)
Therefore..I managed to accomplish my goals for the nite: to be acknowledge by the band (thanx to my wonderful tshirt!) ..and to record "my completeness" in my camera (well, 3/4 is good enough)..what a night to remember! yeahh.. =)
ps: To Shades, Dayang, Wani & Azwan..cheers for our memorable GOR trip! "My completeness" indefinately! =)
