MUSIC MANIA!!!
I found a new sin-free alternative to clubbing! It is Hark Music Cafe!! In case you are wondering what I'm talking about, it's this cafe which has a live singing stage! It's located just opposite Paradiz Centre at Dhoby Ghaut area. And it's damn cool. Went there with peng yesterday and it was an incredibly awesome experience. Got to sing on stage with peng together with a 'live' band playing for us! It was such a blast that the audience cheered for us. We were even asked by some audience to perform another duet together. Besides that, I crapped quite a lot on stage with the host and guitarist. Hahaha. You just gotta pardon the drama me sometimes. =X Wah, there were even some big shots singing that night. There were a few finalists from this year's Project Superstar. Got this finalist called Keith. I think he sang so damn well. His duets with his twin brother really made me go wow. So I really do wish to bring any of you to this exciting new place! You heard that applie? We gotta go there some day!!! I bet we could have lotsa fun there man. Move away clubbing. Move away drinkers. Move away smokers. Yea you heard me.
Before that, we actually went for a little music journey. Was exploring and checking out on some music stuff and stumbled across 2 music schools at bugis. There is this school called "Play By Ear" which specialises in pop piano improvisation. It is EXACTLY what I wanted to learn all this while. One of the instructors there demonstrated how to play the song "Tong Hua" in different variations. There is even the jazz rendition. It was simply mind-blowing. $140 a month for 4 lessons of 45 mins each. Alright man, I think I gonna enrol for the lessons. I mean, I have learnt Classical music all these years. Classical music playing only makes you a player because you are trained to read notes and play by reading the scores. On the other hand, pop piano playing improvisation requires you to listen and tap on your creativity to come up with different chords while playing the same melody. Hence, it is a higher level. And I believe that makes a true musician. Damn it, I should have ventured into this earlier. If only! Ha! But it's not too late either! I'm not gonna let my pathetic NS life rot away. Gonna put it to full swing.
