Gig 21 June 09: Doppelganger @ Fete de la Musique 2009

It's World Music Day on 21 June 2009 and guess what? Once again, the Alliance Francaise is putting together FETE DE LA MUSIQUE. This time, do NOTE that it's NOT at Jalan Gurney. SO please do not head to that direction. Ironically, this year's day of free music.

Date: 21 June 2009
Venue:
Lounge La Bodega
14-16 Jalan Telawi 2, Bangsar. Acess map: http://www.gastrodome.com.my/tsb/

Time: 6.30pm - 7.30pm (event runs from 6.00pm - 10.00pm at La Bodega Lounge as well as TSB - which is up the road)

DOPPELGANGER HAS AN OPEN MIC SLOT FROM 6.30pm - 7.30pm. Update: Slots are all currently full. Thanks to those who showed interest :)


>>> EXCERPT FROM WEBSITE::: The musicians are asked to perform for free, and all the concerts are free for the public. It’s the reason why they are used to play in open air areas as streets and parks or in public buildings like museums, train stations, castles… Furthermore, the Fête de la Musique is a way to encourage the major music institutions (orchestra, operas, choirs, etc.) to perform outside their usual locations. This kind of institutions can also welcome other types of music. In this way it offers an opportunity to develop exchanges between city centres and their outlying areas, to offer concerts in hospitals or in prisons, to promote encounters and exchanges between young musicians and well-known talents. The event was launched in 1982 by the French Ministry of Culture... >

News Updates: 11 June 2009

This year, "TIME OUT KL" is the media sponsor! So the TSB stage will be named "Time Out KL stage". Actually La Bodega stage will sound classical, traditional, accoustic and R'n'B, and TSB will be local Pop/rock/metal. Lounge La Bodega and Telawi Street Bistro will offer a complementary soft drink to all musicians! Yeah!

SCHEDULE: More than 20 bands/artists will be performing from 6pm in TSB and La Bodega Lounge.

Doppelganger Indie Picks: Y2K (MALAYSIA) meets Superman is Dead (INDONESIA)

Here we go again with Doppelganger Indie Picks. Each time, we select one local and one foreign artiste to share with you. This edition, we are shaking with excitement as we reintroduce two punk acts, both of whom have been around for quite some time. 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...
