A full band day. I was happy with my experience today. Nothing unhappy happened. Thats such a rare chance hee.

Went to potong pasir cc band performance in the morning. The weather was damn hot, and we were asked to perform for a GRC function. It was fun actually. No stress, just play. The pieces were the simple simple and very simple kind. The band sound, although young, have potential to become very good in 3-4 years time. No joke about it. So we performed 2 sessions of 3 songs each. Short, but ok lah.

In the afternoon, I had to go to Westwinds for a rehearsal for the performance tonight. An outdoor performance. The first piece we rehearsed was El Bimbo. The minute when we started to go "da-da-ta" on the first 3 notes, I went "wow" in my mind. Westwinds had never sounded so good before. Its really amazing. It really helps when people listen to good bands. We had that opportunity during the WASBE conference. Westwinds..... aiming for world class standards.
