MadWereWolfBoy>>> hahaha.. yea, i also didn't expect it to be to grand like tat.. haha.. =p

Colarndo>>> lighting? haha.. yea.. for me it's great too.. coz whn i stand on the stage, i can't see the audiences' face.. kekekeke =p


btw.. is my singing still okie?

 

[Colarndo]

Just improve on diction(Chorus Part), slight dynamics(your voice tends to "disappear" sometimes, not sure if it's the mix) and showmanship(take the mic off the stand & move/sway around). The double Bass/Cello in the background was rather odd. as well as the other singer.
The rest of the band memebers look damn serious on their instruments.
When the guitarist did his solo, it was rather empty due to the lack of a backing rhythm guitarist. Consider having a keyboardist or 2nd guitarist in future.
The lighting made the performance so much better.
Imagine wearing black attire performing with white flourescent lights...

 

[xiaoCarol]

colarndo>>> wow.. thanx thanx... hmmm, we have lead and rhythm guitarist de, but the organizer says not enough amp so no choice we can't have our rhythm guitarist on stage >.<

and for attire.. hmmm.. got any suggestions nex time should wear wad color?? tat day we juz happen to recieve our new jackets so we try on.. hahaha =p

while performing on such stage, issit best to wear sth brighter?? coz we are all newbies.. so tat time actually also donno wear wad... *^^*

 

[Colarndo]

Actually Black attire is rather decent as it doesn't clash with the fancy lightings.
You might want to experiment on the material of the clothes instead.
Make up/Lightener(It doesn't pay too be too tannned sometimes).

It's not a matter of lacking an amp actually, they could have given you a D.I Box and the rhythm guitarist could have some monitors on stage or hear the bleed from the house speakers.

 

[xiaoCarol]

oh, okie okie.. thanx thanx =p

 

[zax]

woah , the drummer is a tution friend hahah .

 

[mel80]

Not bad for a first gig.
Would be much better if you all moved more. Groove to the music. Maybe you all were kinda nervous that's why.

All the best for your future gigs!
