, it had no room to spare
I had to cram so many things to store everything in there''

A lyric from David bowie song and this is what i am feeling now.

It's 2 am and i can't get to sleep so i'm going to tell a story.

I'm in a band and there are 4 person in there. Me-Vocal, my good friend(we call him A-Guitar) and our friend which i'm not very close with but they are good friend of A(we call them B-Bass and D-Drummer).

So me and A write the song and stuff than we jam together once , few mths later D say he don't wanna play drummer anymore because of personal reason,ok i respect that so he left.Now we are dead stuck without a drummer than A have a classmate(His new to playing drum we call him N) that wanna try and play drum for our band great i was really happy about it, than we jam once.

Few mths later A told me we have to let him go because we don't wanna drag him into this because his not really into this band thing so bye bye N.

We are stuck without a drummer yet again and B rarely meet up with me and A, B don't even have his own Bass,at first i tot he was going to get one.Me and A ambition are really low.

Few mths later A told me D said he wanna to play again great we can start playing again.Weeks later i'm waiting for a call from A for us to meet.Guess what B break his arm riding a bike and D told us his not sure if he wanna play because he wanna concentrate on his study.


There are people who wanna study hard get good grades get a really good job and a wife have some children and live happily ever after.

There are some people who just wanna try their best on getting good grades try thier best in getting a good job and a wife have some children,make music and let their children, their grandchildren and their great grandchildren know that there is something call music and their father, grandfather and great grandfather have a passion in it.

Who knows, they may pick up an instrument or two and start playing and grow a passion in it because they know someone in their family tree did just that.

Thank you for reading this broken english story i type out when i can't sleep.
 
that goes to show most singaporeans see music as a phase in life. then again that's good of them since singapore doesn't really give much chance to the music scene.

if singapore can't be bothered, they also can't be bothered.
 
Each person has their own commitment level. Some are willing to sacrifice their weekends writing songs and jamming, others are just willing to play occasionally.
 
A perrenial problem this is.... but it's the fact of life. Working musos who kena tuang worst coz livelyhood involved. 8)
