That 70's Show...

hello everyone...

we had a great time at 70's bistro last monday night... there was a big crowd and the thrill of playing some songs that we have yet to play live was really overwhelming...

we took a long time setting up because i wanted to make sure that everything was in order but to my disgust, one guitar amp was busted - the one which dennis was to use... we decided to turn our volume down and just get on with it. the first song "flaming walls" was a bit of a let down because we haven't gotten the right levels yet and mavi did a minor error when she sang the last stanza a full bar ahead of its original placement... we chose "painful" as our second song because i still felt that carlo have yet to familiarize himself with the song pattern... it was almost flawless but by the end of the song, carlo was still playing the drums. i guess no one noticed the mistake and the crowd did like the song, i think... the third song we did was "sad inside" - one of my favourites... by this time we were sure of what was going om and everything was falling in the right places. i can even hear myself and mavi's voice sing in good harmony... again the crowd liked the song... by this time i was enjoying the thought of us playing at such a very low volume. "wicked glances" followed and we were all in a sort of a hypnotic-lock when all of a sudden dennis' amp was like having a very wicked asthma attack... me and dennis just looked at each other and decided to ignore it... after that me, mavi and maggot were having a minor discussion on stage as to how many songs we had already done and because of this, we forgot that we still had to do "nearby town". we did "my silver chair" with the volumes up a notch and i'm sure we were starting to sound a bit macho... we went down stage smiling and for me, it was one (the first one i guess) great gig for this very new candyaudioline line up...

the Highlight of our 70's show...
- two really pretty korean girls approached me and asked me... "Hey, Ellow... you guys have greats songs"... is your vocalist korean?
