mysterious! Emochick you are at every event but I still dont know who you are. Amaka's secret lover?

Jet was awesome though was surprised that they played "be my girl" halfway through their set.

It was a nightmare backstage, setting up, sound checking in 5 minutes and then having to strip down and pack all our stuff out in 10 mins.

Have some videos of Flybar's opening set here:

and the stage interview where our singer Ian made a fool of himself hehe:

Love them or hate them, its a great start that locals are opening for internationals!

I got more videos coming up, but I'm scared I offend people because there's alot of me taking the piss out of firebrands. So viewer discretion is advised

 

[emochick]

hahahha! hello, i've got a boyfriend and i'm very happy being with him. lol.

and i'm at every event cause i'm special like that. huehuehue. =D

speaking of which, since emochick isnt amaka's lover we have a new mission:

AMAKA MUST GET LAID

 

[flybar]

Walao we thank you alr then all you can say is Amaka must get laid.

Pffft. Funny missions you have

 

[amaka]

wah lao eh! saito concentrate on ur gov job lah!

 

[lurgee]

saito : thanks for the vids man. didn't manage to catch them even though i was there at like 7. us photogs could only go in just before Jet appeared! what a bummer! so no local band pix from us.

and yes..i'm with you to say that amaka MUST GET LAID!
Cheers to that!

 

[amaka]

yeap, pity cant shoot the local boys. started so early too. hmm... so who wanna talk about JET and the concert that took placed?

 

[saito]

that's perfect.

hey lurgee- yeah I was pissed because I worked hard to get them that slot - wanted some decent photos, but no one was there so it was just me and my handphone cam.

And yes!

We should make a gig called "AMAKA MUST GET LAID"
Free entry for photographers.

YES YES! A scene photographer gig haha

 

[fgl]

flybar - was it a paying gig?

 

[lurgee]

Saito : we were all there ready to shoot..just that not allowed in. so that means u need to buy a decent camera and learn to shoot just in case. hehe. i think next time state that you want to have photogs for opening bands too.

haha..i dunno how amaka will feel about a gig like that.
free entry to gig yes..but NO entry while getting laid. haha.

 

[saito]

FGL: Yes and no. Let's leave it at that

 

[dhalif]

aye aye saito, leave my girlfriend alone. hahahah :lol:

 

[saito]

dhalif - my target is AMAKA hahaha!

you look familiar bro, you played in gashaus before yes?

 

[fgl]

SAITO NAGASAKI: if not for him this band would never have gotten all this. Thank you!!! THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!

Nagasaki? as the city that was Atomic - bombed in WWII?

 

[flybar]

fgl: yeah but thats a nickname when he plays with Divine 9 la.

Amaka: you're doomed. take care my friend. it was good while it lasted.

 

[amaka]

Saito ah Saito, as much as i appreciate ur kindness and concern, and also towards other photographers, I think you have forgotten that I have already found my LOVE.

In fact the the rest of the photographers too have found theirs, despite our seemingly "bo liao" life style, going around gigs, shooting and post processing them to upload. Aloysius is happily married, Thomas is in love with his gal and Ling juz got hooked.

"AMAKA MUST GET LAID. Photographers need love too" sounds great really, what a unique sounding gig it will be and one of a kind. BUT, the more appropriate one will be " AMAKA MUST GET PAID. Photographers need money too". Muahahahahaha!!! Ok replace "AMAKA" and use this instead, "$$$ Photographers MUST GET PAID. Photographers need money too! $$$ ".

I'm sure all photographers here will know why. We've got expensive hobby, buy camera body, buy lens, buy flash buy bag, buy filter, buy dry box, buy cleaning kit, buy tripod, buy memory card, buy buy buy buy buy! No $money$ how to survive???!!! How to upgrade equipment, how to get better pics of the bands performing in difficult situations???!!!

The point is, WE ARE BROKE!!!

So Saito, since youre so kind, maybe you can organise a charity gig for us yeap? The bands has Music for Good, maybe its time for photographers to have Photo for Good? First of a kind man! Muahahahaha!!!



:smt055 Love aMaKa :supz:
