2nd Audition at The Ark (木船) 090909?

A few days back I received an SMS from one of the guys at The Ark “木船”. It’s a confirmation for me singing for Audition round number 2. (I suppose everyone gets a chance).

This time round instead of playing the keyboard and singing myself, I would have to pick two songs and then let their band perform, while I concentrate on my singing.

So if you would like to know how good or how bad I am, live on a stage, do come down for a visit here. It’s on 9th of September, year 2009 or 090909. I guess its 8pm, and you can come with friends for a drink or just to listen to some Mandarin songs by ordinary who dare to step out and go on stage =)

The address is at… I’ll just refer you to this website: http://www.theark.com.sg/contact.html

I would most probably sing 1 of the 2 easy songs, so that the band can play it with ease.

1) Kiss Goodbye - Lee hom
2) Wei Yi - Lee Hom

Ok see you there !

Visiting / Audition at The Ark (木船) 12 Aug 09

Today, I had the chance of doing what I liked 2 years back. The reason 2 years back is because my interest has slightly died down alittle.

My friend Jeffery, one of the regular performers at The Ark Music Cafe, asked me to join them for their Audition. Since I had the time and was quite bored recently, I decided to just take part for fun.

As usual, I requested for a keyboard which I know they do, and performed unplugged than all the other usual Karaoke minus one. This was just a chance for me to perform on stage again, and with less pressure (since this ain’t a competition).

A little history here: Mu Chuan 木船, The Ark music cafe, used to be a place for aspiring stars to perform and promote local music. It has been around for at least 15 years… I think. This performing giggs, also known as Xin Yao, of 名歌餐厅, where you can listen to Chinese Pop Music, in a cafe.

It’s quite a nice place, very near my house, few train stops away. It has a stage with the necessary drum set, one digital piano and a keyboard, and enough space for the singer, bassist and lead guitarist.
Nice comfy crouches, good lighting and just an atmosphere if you like Chinese pop music.

It’s been awhile since I go to Karaokes to listen to new pop music, and that place would be cool, both listening and performing. Awaiting for the auditions results, I would have to see how my interests can bring me to, and if possible a chance to perform a few more times there, or outdoors before I really stop and move on.
