2 Gigs 1 Night, It's Been A While...

Hello Everyone...

it's been a while since we had played at 2 different venues in 1 night...

originally, it was just supposed to be at 70' Bistro but upon learning that there was a slot that needed to be taken because one band backed out at our prod. at sazi's, i decided to let Candy play there too...

the 70's Bistro gig was supposed to be a really enjoyable one, inspite of the fact that we really can't get our volumes up everytime we play there, but during the middle of our last (5th)song, i think the bass amp went bust... ending our set on a slightly dissappointing note... still i think we played very well specially during the 2 new songs ("Your Smiling Eyes" and Lost Track Of Yesterday")... then off we went to Sazi's...

i wasn't really expecting that we'll have a swell time at sazi's knowing the fact that we'll be playing infront of a slightly young crowd weened on music that is predominant;y "emo"... but i like playing to an unsuspecting public... Coming from 70's Bistro, which was really Jampacked, i was a bit surprised that Sazi's was also a bit full-house... and also the P.A. system was louder than usual... it made me want to play more... when it was our time to play, we wasted no time setting up... all the amps were sounding so good... once we started playing, i knew that it was going to be enjoyable... our volumes swelled everytime we moved on to the next song... i was really enjoying it so instead of playing just 4 songs, i decided to add one more song at the last minute... we went down the stage smiling...






hope we'd have a chance at doing this again... 'til the next post...

Hopefully...

hello everyone...

hopefully we get to practice tonight with Jeff or maybe in the next couple of days... he's back, according to him...

not really sure how to react to this but i guess i don't have to expect much anymore... or maybe take each day as is comes... it's been a period of uncertain things for the past few months... what, with all the things happening around...

just hoping that this time... things we'll shift to the positive side of the pole and stay there for the longest possible time...

til' the next, hopefully happy post...

Enjoy The Silence...

All I ever wanted
All I ever needed
Is here in my arms
Words are very unnecessary
They can only do harm... so goes the lines from the song "Enjoy The Silence" by Depeche Mode...

Hello everyone...

as usual... everything's quiet again here at Camp Candy... wasted are the days wherein everyone's free yet no one wants to take the initiative... well, Arjay and Dennis have been asking me as to when's the next Practice...

I don't really understand myself as to what's with me lately... i should have accepted the fact that it has always been i who should be taking charge of things but why am i sitting things out? why am just letting things pass by? am i enjoying this?

Partly to blame. i think, is this current side project that i'm having which i have "tentatively" called "Lipstick Tragedy"... it's slowly turning into a joke mainly because i've been very unlucky getting myself a drummer who;s willing to commit... i've already approached two... the first one attended 1 practice session, mysteriously dissappeared for almost three weeks than informed me last Saturday that she was ready only to text me again the next day that she could no longer commit herself to us... at least the second drummer informed me the day after i approahed her that she can't play drums for us since her other band is starting to get busy... Maybe its time to ditch the idea of having a girl for a drummer... also, i'm having abery hard time writing the songs... i've only managed two as of the moment... stupid of me not realising early on that Glitter Rock requires a lot when it come to arrangements and also with regards to vocal melodies... sadly i'm way too short with regards to that department... but that doesn't mean that i've given up already... i haven't even started my search for the vocalist of this group...

So what about things at Candy? i've not much to say really... i do miss it a lot though...

A Promise...

"You said nothing will change... We were almost near, Almost far... Down came the rain... But nothing will change, You promised...
- Echo And The Bunnymen (A Promise)

Hello evryone...

Time flies so fast and somehow it's March already... Summer's supposed to have arrived a few days ago but instead all we see are clouds in the sky... Still, it's been very humid the past couple of days... i usually feel very uncomfortable during this kind of weather... It is very hard to go about things due mainly to the promise of uncertainty that such a scenario offers...

That being taken into account, it's not very different from what's been happening to Candyaudioline lately... Too many things are forcing us to slow down a bit to a point that i feel we're being forced into a girnding halt...

The point of being in this group is mainly just to enjoy this gift and share it with others but it is really very hard to share something that's somewhat falling apart... i've refrain from listing to our songs for the past few weeks mainly because of the situation we're in right now...

The right word to call us right now is.... A "Promise"... We have just become another Promise... Something that may or may not happen... And that's the worst thing i would want us to be... Like Soft Pillow Kisses... People who knows would understand what i'm blabbering about...

It's March already... Sooner or later it'll be April... Don't want to wait anymore but there's nothing we can do about it for now...
