& you have about 10 minutes to change & get ready.
Report to band room immediately at 9.40 sharp.
Our first show is at 10.10am, lower sec recess.
The area is a little cramped, so make sure you can see the conductor.

Songs :
Party Rock
Smoke On Water
Fiesta La Vida
Monster Rock
Shenandoah (Maybe, wait. Idk.)

Practise your piece, i will practise mine.
I borrowed my neighbours electronic drum pads.
So cool.

29th Oct, Concert @ LianHua Primary School
Report to band room at 7am latest.
You have to set up instruments & warm up with the band.
Probably go through the songs.
We will leave Hillgrove at 7.15am.
8am

So approximately, reach school by 6.30.
VERY SAFE
. Confirm wont late for school one.
Songs will most probably be the same as our Lunch time concert.
Will get back to you guys soon.

2nd Nov, Concert @ De La Salle Primary School
Wooh! So excited. My primary school leh.
But this is not confirmed yet. Mdm Khong will get back to me.
But what so ever happen, the plans will carry out like what we
will do in the LianHua experience.

3rd Nov, Concert @ Chua Chu Kang Primary School
Confirmed by Mdm Khong.
Plans carried out as in LianHua's experience.

So if you see, there are many performances for us!
please practise & turn up for ALL practises.
Those who do not turn up for any practises Must produce a MC.
If otherwise, you will not be performing.

Hello Band (:

Dominic here.
I know its weird that i would update this blog right,
but oh well!
The band's blog is a bit dead, so i think i might as well do something about it!

Okay, recently we had our band camp.
& I am quite sure its a huge success.
I enjoyed the Dinner. GREAT FOOD MAN.
But Mr Ong say i have to cut down :(
Sad lah, then you all laugh somemore. Good lah -.-

Okay, so anyway. The songs we're learning now is
Fiesta La Vida
Earth, Wind & Fire(Dance Mix)
Party Rock &
Smoke on the Water.

Hah, i have some videos of it. Just to let you see how
other band does it.

Party Rock


Fiesta La Vida


Smoke on the Water


Earth, Wind & Fire(Dance Mix)



For the Smoke on the Water right,
I cannot find any other vids that is as cool as that lah.
the rest are all Orchestra stuff.
Drumset's entrance is totally different.
Yup, this is cool.
Will try to update on the camp's picture soon!

*UPDATE*
Oh btw, i think its time to change the blog skin?
Even if you love the current blog skin so much,
you will get bored of it!
So, i'll be changing the blogskin soon,
objections? Thanks :D

HEY BAND PEEPS.

as seen from the inactiveness of the blog, we apologise for the lack of updates. the blogging team consists of now former band members, who are either going to sit for the GCE O Levels, or have graduated.

therefore, there will be no updates any time soon, until a new team is formed.

thank you
and all the best for exams!

Band Camp 2009
Preparation for SYF.


******
The following content will be about our latest news, well not exactly latest. It's about our recent achievement. I know most of us band members don't consider them achievement, but I do. I know deep inside we're definitely better than our previous competition. Don't be too disappointed in the results all hope is not lost. We still can redeem ourselves for the next SYF. It's not that we can't play or we don't have strong musical background. I figured, it's actually our attitude. When we're told we're wrong how many of us actually bothered/took the effort to change?
On 8th April many of us experience butterflies in our tummy. Okay la, not everyone. Only me I guess? I was excited/nervous/scared etc. Mixed feelings.
Anyway, from what I've read from ZhenYu's blog and what WengKin told me, Mr Lee isn't going to renew Mr Ong's contract. On top of the Mdm Khong is retiring soon. How sad can that be?
