….after the silence…

ok..ok..so the previous posting was way too long. Cant’ help coz too much things to say and suddenly filled with inspiration to blog. Currently enjoyin’ getting online on the new DELL lap baby. Doesnt really like its keyz layout which is kinda flat compared to the usual angled keyboard.

So..Was called for audition for levites yesterday nite at church. Given some drum beats/loops which comprises of 2,4,8 and 16 beats which we are supposed to jam along with. Backups, drummers,bassist, guitarist, pianist & keyboardist are being tested using the same loops. When my turn came, I wuz goin like !@##$%%! chords! But nvm lar..just shoot. *phew*..managed to get through. Doesnt mean I passed though.

Then came the Q&A session where questions which I have in mind for ages are being let out. Stuff like benchmark, commitments etc are being discussed. As usual, the "grand-old-person" of Levites ministry… none other than >> *uh-uh* not tellin << got only 1 old/senior fella..so go figure lar. And yeah, as we were goin through the question that i have regarding benchmark wif standards to follow, I was being shot at on area of "TOW style" vs. Album/Recording style. Clearly I was talking bout techinical aspects of a song. What is the purpose of a w.leader or a band when we’re gonna be dragged by the congregation to sing a song super draggy.. Darn! *Frust*…Thats not all..then came the questions of commitment.

BEING AT CHURCH EVERY SUNDAY AT 6:30AM AND PLAYING RUBBISH IS NOT A COMMITMENT !!! especially when one claims to have been serving in the same ministry for the past 20 years! That ONE person must be taking God for a ride somehow. The same person mentioned that the "free time to practice" for youths are more than adults. Easy, i said,… thats why DON’T COMMIT laRR ! If u think there’s not enuff time to practice and listen to songs…and sinking the whole band by playing rubbish …after 20yrs..*konon* ! Turned to be a bit of a heated discussion especially if u have like all the people against that one "grand-old-daddy" levite..who’s NOT inching a step away from the ministry. Thanks to CK who kept backing me up throughout..

Its Friday!! and here we are…the weekend! ..YeSSSSS ! The rush for practices starts AGAIN.. *gosh*.. havent been practicing YAM songs tis week..           Monday is a Public Holiday though. Enjoy!  Much looney as usual for the weekend.
