Been surfing a lot today esp in the local indie/DIY website for bands/artiste: i-bands. Heard lot's of local stuff by local boys/girls and even a New york based band; Edison. Personally, i would suggest to the guys that we (Bandwidth) put some of our well recorded stuff inside too (soon after we registered to the site-lah). Some of those stuff are pretty cool, but many of the stuff there doesn't stand out and screamed at your face. Some were too predictable; with all the 'Greendayesque' sound-punk and it's family members aka hell lots of powerchords (5th chord). Anyway it's a good step towards a better music scene. Hopefully there will be better musicians with more originality. Influences are important to all musicians, i could say that even the most talented/well-known musicians around the world would have their own influences. Even those guitar heros well known to us mortals like Jimi Hendrix (were influenced by some great bluesmen like Muddy Waters etc), what more to us, mere mortal who tried to play/write a decent tune.

I had been 'WARNED' by our 'band-leader' that we musn't flop the performance on Friday, or else we could face the axe. We will 'kicked out' from the band and will be replaced with other musicians.

"Ok, boss. We will give our 10000K % to the performance this Friday. And please don't kick me out of the band...."

And the 'boss' said that the performance will important coz it will either make or break the image of the band. And as i mentioned before, some celebrity will attend the opening. I really need to pray on that day, coz i hope history (IK Nite) won't repeat itself again. IK Nite will forever strike fear into me and Dave, it will forever haunt us as long as we live and stand/sit in front of audiences to perform.
