Re: ARMADA.

Truly an unexpected performance. ^^,

The night we performed at Ahoy! There in Timog was outrageous. I had a lot of fun with the band, one which i haven't felt for a while. I just hope there were some images floating around so i could have something as a remembrance.

Armada played 6CM's "I" as a starter. It didn't looked like the usual "Pogi Rock" because of the different output [thanks to Erl's distortion provided by Ian's 506, and Dennis' MT-2 that i'm currently using]. I got a lot of mistakes with my lead for that song, but i managed to put up some pinch harmonics through the chorus part. I just don't know if it fitted or if it was heard. But from that song's ending, Matt celebrated due to the band's "unexpected adlibs" which... well, fitted nicely.

For the second is my proposed Rock version of To Destination's Eden. It went out pretty well, except for my lead. I haven't re-practiced my part before the event because i needed to study for my school activities, so i kind of forgot the lines. But i managed to back with Adz for the vocs, i just didn't know if my voice blended through. But my job was the lead, so... i generally sucked. =[

And here's my fave... the last song. We performed a different rendition of "Zombie" which sounded like... i dunno... but i can pretty well say that it's a type of the "fusion" that i wanted to propose with RevEp. I can say it's a practice for Ian and me. Anyway, there's a major part of something like "Jazz" [Chi said it was Acid] and with a short, but mood-changing heavy part. To change the Zombie's concept from "scary" to "fun" [i say you'd be doing something like Michael Jackson's thriller dance by the time you hear it] was something odd but interesting to do. And to the fact that we've made a successful output, i loved it. I think it had a different impact with the audience as well.

To sum it all up, it was one hell of a night. Other bands were also great, although i haven't watched the others play because i went outside for a while. But those which i have heard were great.

So this is Ongaku Society. ^^,


* From that point, i got inspired and got different ideas that i could probably use. Yesterday, i accidentally made something for RevEp when i was about to teach Ian about plucking. ^^,
