The Aftermath of Bras Basah Swee Lee Year End Sale!

After 4 hours of queue-ing round bends, railings and walkways, I managed to snag a Paiste Dimension 16" Crash. Quite sweet, luckily it matches the other AAX studio crash I have at home. Also got a cymbal stand + rack tom extention and a cheapo 22.50 splash.

Oh, btw, did anyone manage to get a glimpse of that singapore idol girl (what's her name? Short short one, abit ah lian, not Maia)? Saw her wandering around Bras Basah complex with a friend.

Time Check:

Time taken to queue to get into store: 4 hours (11am to 3pm+++)
Time taken to grab stuff: 35 minutes
Time taken to queue to pay for things: 45 minutes
Time well spent: All of it

Big thanks to Swee Lee for this mega sale. First time I spend so long queue-ing, lol.
 
yea!! i was expecting the queue to be gone by around afternoon but i was like WTF when i saw the queue, and there were not many guitar left!! if everyone in the queue was gonna get the remaining guitar, i figure out by the time i get in, there would be nothing in there left for me..
 
I got there and camped outside at 10pm plus last night. Tonned overnight. Was like 40 places back by the early morn, but made my way towards the front thanks to some of u fellow softies and a few new friends. Was getting drums and i really wanted it. some of u guys were so kind as to let this li'l 16 yr old get in front so i'd be one of the first in to grab the deal. Thank God most of you were guitarists.
Was getting a Pearl Export Radical drum kit and a Sabian AAX gospel perf set and my stool, pearl roadster. Also got HHX hats and HHXplosion crash for my friend. At first i went in run straight to the drums then the guy tell me sold, but i was the first there lar.. then somehow, they let my dad in and another swee lee guy helped me get the deal back. One day must go thank him. I owe him big time. Quite glad most of us 'tonners' got what we wanted. Hey. I don't know if some of u fellow tonners can recognise me i was that short guy in green tee shirt. Currently, i only know who Neuro182 is lar and i only recognise the rest of u all by the distinct features like colour of the tee shirts u all wore and hair. If any of u know who i am just PM me.
