Piko & the Arowanas


I'm such a non-blogger. Perhaps one day that will change. Haha! Anyway, here are some pictures from the No Black Tie evening which turned out a little long - guess there's not enough open mics around lah. My apologies to Nazri and to Yuri for not being able to have your slot to perform. Until next time. Btw, Fete de la Musique is ON again - mid June. Thanks to all those who performed! Piko & the Arowanas (didgeridoo & guitarist), Wei Yin who improves each time she reads - i just want to hear more!, Saradha who's penning a novel as we speak, Rahmat Haron, Melisa and Abroko for sharing thoughts from a journalist on tattoos and underground artistes, Han for reading a piece of Sharanya's - 'Even NBT Could Have Made Love to Han that night', Zalila Lee & Jerral Khor, Roy with his amazingly cool tuhantuhan twists, Khailee and in my opinion a poignant performance of 'Death of the Excel Spreadsheet', Myo from Tongkat with his lovely voca loca!, our new bluesy friend who sang Boba in his Guitar - Otam, Kavitha for bracing herself and reading for the first time, Jerome Kugan for singing Negaraku with me, Nikki Yeo for helping me out that evening, Evelyn Hii for maintaining such an acoustically wonderful place such as NBT!

Love you all!

Whilst our Balinese counterpart, Superman is Dead enjoys a fan base of over 5million on Facebook, the other closer to home (we're speaking of Ampang in Kuala Lumpur) has an insignificant amount of but in our opinion, have the promise of being a really really really (as my Italian friend Valentina says) a smashing big band! So the long and short is, the Malaysian band Y2K has been established since the early 2000s and is about to release it's second album. How many albums did Sex Pistols release? Perhaps this article (Sex Pistols' Steve Jones interview: 'We should do a covers album') could be an inspiration to them to reinvent, repackage and just bloody get their band out there more and more and more :P Can...
