Thristy Merc Live, Round 2!

Another Thristy Merc gig yet again! This time, I went with Haz. We were supposed to go to the gig at Adelaide Uni Bar's one, but the tickets were SOLDOUT. (Believe it or not, Thisrty Merc is getting really popular!) So as alternative, we bought the tickets for the gig at Flinders Uni Tavern instead.. Oh well, better than nothing right?

We arrived there fairly early, around 9pm. Immediately when we arrive, we managed to get a good position, which was right infront of the stage! (Again, like the last gig..lucky us!) The first band performed, called themselves Everest. Oklah, sounds a lil bit like Greenday & Nickleback..hmm.. Next band was Sumi, who had a lady bass guitarist..I find them better than the first band, more lively & more attitude. The drummer kinna look like Matt Damon! hehe.. During the intervals while everybody was waiting, there was this guy behind me who accidentally spilt some beer behind my back jeans! Arrghh.. I smell like beer the rest of the night! sigh..idiot drunks! *opps, mind my language peps*

Finally around 11pm, THIRSTY MERC performed! Woohoo!! Of course, they played my song, "my completeness" as their 2nd song..Recorded the entire song this time! (I learnt from my mistakes..always bring extra memory card!) This time round, Rai didnt acknowledge my t-shirt because there were a fence infront of the stage. So yeah, spoiler! Anyway, they performed great as always, playing the usual songs.. Summertime, Wasting Time, Someday, Emancipate myself...etc. The boys ROCK hard.. Woohoo~ Makes me wonder why I didn't buy their album yet..maybe I should one day! ha.. They are one of my favourite Aussie bands anyway.. I say, kena kumpul duit dahh..

Right after the show ended at around 12.15am, the band were at the merchandise counter & were having an "autograph signing session" at one corner. Haz then quickly bought a poster, and we qued up for them. When it was my turn, Rai pointed out to me "Hey look, it is a "My completeness" t-shirt!" and the rest of the band was like "Oh yeah...how cool!" hehehe.. I was SO proud! I think I am the ONLY fan with that especially-made t-shirt! I feel honoured.. and I was SO happy that I took a pic with the band! (Shades, Aliaa, Wani, Dayang, jangan marah okie!) They even signed the t-shirt & my "Summertime" single! woohoo! What a Rocking night indeed! Haz & I crashed at Noranna's crib for the night, since she stayed near the uni. Noranna, thanx for the warm & comfy sofa bed again! ;)
