Moods in KL

Moods was invited for three days of performances in KL from the 13th to the 15th of June. We drove up to KL and what an experience it was because it was our very first time driving up. We struggled throughout the drive to stay awake.. It was all worth it as it was a reunion of friends whom we have not met for a very long time. The audiences there were absolute darlings too. Not to mention the food too....

FIRST PERFORMANCE:
venue: Annex at Central Market

After the soundcheck, we decided to hang out at Jo Kidd's shop

Moods at Timbre

Tonight felt like any other night for the band, mainly because we were the last band to play tonight, which rarely happens. We felt really chill tonight whilst performing as well. We were practically in our own world. There were technical problems coming from the guitar effects and some other glithches like players starting on a wrong key,the momentary lapse of lyrics etc.
Above all that, we enjoyed ourselves and was a bonus when we see some people in the audience dancing as well as showing us the thumbs up. The set was 45 minutes and we were quite drained by the time it ended. Nonetheless, we were just happy playing on stage.

Time is on our side.... yes it is

We both knocked off work early and agreed to meet at Arab Street for a quiet session before jamming starts at 9.30. I managed to vomit out some lyrical content for a new song..

A.L.O.N.E

What happens when you're all alone in the office with a camera shy colleague who insists on snapping your photos?
This is the outcome...

We're jamming....

Its been months since Moods jammed. After a casual band meeting over coffee on Sunday, we finally head down to Nick Chan's Studio over at Dunlop Street to jam. Moods have been around close to ten years and we went through thick and thin, good and bad, happy and sad. Above all, we are a family and the band has been the longest running relationship any of us has ever had.
We are performing this Saturday at Substation in conjunction with the Singapore Arts Festival. The week after we are heading down for four days of performances.. We are extremely excited definitely...
