deonportnoy mentioend Boon. Is he Boon from Jazz@southbridge? He organized the DrumFest2007?
 
Heard of him la, Tan Boon Gee right? Why cut short his name? Plays at JSB right? ok guy la. Not discriminating him la.
 
hey, were you there for the drumfest? Because Tan Boon and Tan Boon Gee are totally 2 different person.. just that the first 2 name really is the same.. haha..
 
Oh is it?
Sorry, I was at the drumfest, but a very "MAN" stuff though I love drums.
U mean Tan Boon and Tan Boon Gee are 2 different people? Tot its Boon or boon gee - all the same. The wierd-looking guy...;p
I came back from China lately. Dropped by JSB,

Who is Tan Boon then? A drummer too? Where he plays?
 
Can someone tell me about Tan Boon? WHo is he? Does he teach drums?Where does he play?

And why is he so passionate about the drummer community that he is doing the drumfest at a loss? Amazing!
 
I have no idea man.. all I can say is thats what passion is all about I guess.. concerning where he plays, I have no idea too, but the last time I checked the the website of Singapore Drumfest, theres a short introduction of him as one of the judges and apparently he plays in a percussion band called "The Strikeforce" - www.myspace.com/strikeforcesg
 
I feel its the same person la, seem mysterious huh?
Anyone has a pix of Tan Boon?
I am impressed by him, any help?
 
oo, just a student that loves drums and music haha, pictures?? In the Strikeforce Myspace, the first video clip showing a person soloing.. thats him.. I met him at the Singapore Drumfest and also caught him busy signing stuffs.. hes really a nice guy..
 
oops. Its a different guy. Tan Boon is from CHC.
Ya, I just heard from my friends Tan Boon is real nice! Not that other with the "Gee"..hahahahaha
How to engage a drum teacher? I heard a good drummer may not te able to teach well. U have a teacher/
 
i kno he plays in my friend's church band. errr...my friend's in that church, not in the band..haha. i duno the name but they book the expo halls for their weekly sessions.
 
Hahahaha yes they are totally 2 different person Bro. Tan Boon is the Director of DrumFest & US Studio also....and he not only play the drums - I heard he is an Instructor (He didn't told me that - I met a Semi-Finalists Under 21 Cat Drummer - He told me - My Instructor is Tan Boon).....He must be good though I have never seen Tan Boon play in person.
 
Oh! Thanks!
Pls help convey a message to Bro Tan Boon...
There is a lady out here saluting and appreciating him for his talent, his passion, his generosity and most importantly, and is so low profile and humble!

God Bless u guys!
 
why don't you go to their church service? u can tell him that in person then :D maybe catch his performance too, if there is one.
 
Hi to you guys out there, Im new to the forum...

I attended the second day of SG Drumfest 2007.I must say it was a really impressive event that required quite a few bit of $$ and effort to put together, so kudos to Tan Boon, Nigel and the guys who made it happen :D

I thoroughly enjoyed the event, especially the drum battle between our two finalists of open cat, and of course the smokin battle right at the end btw Tony Royster, Gorden Campbell and Jimmy. I personally felt Jimmy held his own against both of them but what he lost out in was in that he was not as loud as both of them.... In my opinion, it was a masterstroke to include a local drummer like Jimmy as one of the performers as it does help to create awareness and promote our local greats... Hopefully, there'll another local pro in Drumfest 2008, maybe Tama anyone?

And oh yes, glad to have found this forum, and looking foward to exchange tips and learn from you guys here... :D
 
RD - the City Harvest Church service at Expo. my friend goes to dat church and she told me he takes turns with the other drummers to play.

er..jus a note: this is all from my friend lah, so there might be a bit of miscomm or lack of clarification, i duno. i'm jus sharing the little bit that i kno, hoping it will help.

no prob, Ferliz, hope i havent misled u or anyone tho. my friend kips inviting me to the services so i figured anyone is welcome to attend :smt053
