Lol, thanks.
Truth be known, our morale took quite a huge bump earlier on. I think that statement helped in two ways:
1) Boost our own morale despite the fact that we have to be the first band and that we have to settle for an unfamiliar guitar (long story really, but we have only ourselves to blame)
2) Urge all the finalists to give it all they got because I personally don't want this competition to be a bore. Tonight was only our third live performance as a band, and so far the advice we got from the seniors in the scene is to treat it like another jam session.
I kinda disagree to that though. I really think that the audience should pay attention to all the finalists, but in order for them to do so, us as performers need to be working to grab attention. That's why we made that "challenge"; not to diss or offend, but to ask that everyone give their all.
Here's the breakdown. Correct me if I am inaccurate:
Grand Prize: Saywhale
Distinguished Award: Rockblasta
Encouragement Award: Madhatter
Best guitarist: Hellven
Best vocalist: Madhatter
Best bassist: Monstar Phunk
Best keyboardist: Sketch
Best drummer: The House of Anonymous

Well special mention to Saywhale, "you go guys!!!!!" for representing Yamaha Singapore into the finals in Taiwan nxt year. As for the rest of the participants, you guys sure put up fantastic performances earlier on...

Congrats to all winners as well as all finalists. 7 out of a total of 69 is already very good.
MadHatter are very fortunate to walk away with the Encouragement Award. Although name for the prize sucks *oops*, we'll take it with graciousness as well as humility. I believed the crowd enjoyed every band's performance as much as we did.
Say Whale will do a good job representing Singapore. All The Best!!!

hi guys,
on behalf of SayWhale i'd like to thank everyone and i mean EVERYONE for their kind words.
i have to say that the bands that played today didn't play to win only. they played their friggin hearts out and i must say the crowd must've had a most entertaining time tonight. we had our own setbacks during the day too which i have to include having our only guitarist to actually be mobilised just before our soundcheck. that was scary.
also, would like to congratulate RocBlasta, Madhatter and the individual award winners.
everyone walked away winning something really.
big respect for Monsta Phunk for a wicked cover and tweaking of Bamboo's Mr Clay!

S$1500 cash, S$3000 worth of Yamaha vouchers, A few thousand worth of Yamaha gear (amps, etc.), paid trip to Taiwan for grand finals, gold-plated medals (looks like gold plated but I'm not really sure, hee..)
I think that's all.
