that is really short...

 

[AEnimic]

yeah 2 songs,very very short, 4x2=8 minutes set

but where to go? anybody?

 

[lurgee]

HMV isn't very big lah.
My guess is should be just infront of the store entrance indoor or at a tent outside.

[Perplexed]

Couple of thoughts..

1 - Saito you were @ HMV? Didn't see you.. I missed Concave Scream's set too, quite sad. Didn't expect them to play so early.

2 - Its not just the case for Concave Scream; the sets for all 4 bands seemed far too short! (4 songs max? ) And there was such a long waiting time between bands, with nothing happening on the stage.

The crowd wasn't spectacular either. Most people were passive spectators looking down at the show from the 2nd-5th levels like some impersonal god, no cheers, claps nothing. That's not the way to show love for our local musicians, where is the love? Pity the MC who tried so hard to stir up enthusiasm.

But apart from these points, the music was still solid good stuff, worth catching.

Any other SOFTies @ HMV yesterday?

 

[saito]

yeah I was. I was interviewing them BEHIND the HMV building with Sandra from Straits Times and some dude from HMV getting quotes.

I was only there for concave's set and hung around at Spinelli watching 3 dash 1. Pretty cool - perhaps they should go for a heavier sound

 

[saito]
