baybeats 2006 kicked ass , baybeeeee !

this is despite the fact that the place was teeming with emo emo tweens dressed in their best black/striped emo attire with emo eyeliner and emo sulk.

"cut my wrists and let me bleed the world is such a dreary dreary place to be.."

the irony was, even though they were trying to stand out, they end up fading into the mundane majority and making normal folks like us look curiously outstanding.



this mat-rocker dude impressed us somewhat with his ability to squeeze his legs into his ultra-tapered denim. fashion police alert !!



some dude with really bad emo hair. it's long and straight at the front and sides but badly scrunched up at the back.

horrendous dressing aside, the music was rocking as usual ! i'm heartened to see that the turnout was slightly better than last year's and the support for local bands packed in much more enthusiasm than before !!

i missed out the later half of day 1 because it was ping's birthday ( for more details please refer to xin's blog ! i love of all them ! ) , and whole of day 2 was spent sleeping and wallflowering at liquid room with tre and pebbles.

really enjoyed :

electrico ( we're not made in the USA : red and white and no fuckin blue !! )
the posies
beezewax ( the band had SO much energy ! i think the drummer was high from smoking his drumsticks )



jack black lookalike from the posies ( yes yes suckass quality i know )



the ever greens - glen alexander fifi

i think my body harbours a personal vendatta against heavy bass because whenever i stand too close to booming speakers, i'll start to feel nauseous and light-headed. happened last night during the closing act when we managed to squeeze in right at the front ( i was wedged between two huge speakers ) and whenever i'm clubbing too. the whole vibraring vocal chords thing gets to me, man.

concave scream was kinda dismal , even they apologised for their lethargy ! whats up dudes, you guys really rocked my socks last year !!

i can't wait for baybeats 2007. heh heh. perhaps they could get deathcab for cutie ? or perhaps a few members of the now defunt the juliana theory ? heh heh heh.

oh wait. here's something yan gave to me as a surprise gift. i knew she was up to something when she started cackling like a demented hyena when i met her.



turns out she stole this HIV test kit from somewhere for me. thanks alot for the concern.

between fits of stifled laughter ( public lah , must suppress ) , i said

'yah yah, you might think its funny now but when i really kena AIDS then we won't be laughing anymore'

instead of the desired effect she laughed even harder. i have a heartless bitch for a best friend !!



waiting.. waiting.

exams start next week ! SIGH.

and now i'm off to stuff my face with a macdonald's big breakfast that i just ordered.
