Alamak!! Sorry dude(Bong) mistaken identity......Anyway, nice to know you.

I always thought you were bong the bassman...HEHEHEHEHEH....

Have we met somewhere before? Are you a D.mode fan? I've always wanted to play D.mode stuff as a band though, but you know being in Sinagpore, most players would want to do the "Rock" thing...

Cheers.
