Live N Loaded!

2009-02-14T00:30:00.001-08:00

Live N Loaded! It was a great experience, totally FRAWESOME. I must admit that I was nervous from about twenty minutes before we went up. It was the most mind-numbing experience - not in the usual usage of that word, but somewhere tending towards mind-blowing, but in the sense that everything was running on pure adrenaline & instinct. Ooh. Haha. The whole studio area & the whole wear-your-clothes-get-some-make-up-do-your-hair thing was just so... Novel. It's as if I could do it for the rest of my life.

Shall spare you the details, here's photos, courtesy of Jonathan Kwa off Facebook! :)

Firstly, thanks to Conrad & Nate for coming down to support & have lots of fun in the crowd! Also, thanks to the 08S10 guys for coming down school/all your trainings to support - from the left... Daryl, Kah How, LARRY Li Rui (who was on TV beside Utt for like, what, seven seconds!), Calvin, Zhi Xiong, & Ming Hao! See, the evident NJ spirit is plain for all to see... Fleming's Left hand & Right Hand Rules... Haha. PARDON THE PUN.

Also, thanks to everyone else for your messages, Facebook messages, tagboard tags, & etc! As far as I can remember... Nicole, Andrew, Ben Lau, Paul Koh, Claudia, Ashwyn, Ben Kwok, Sarah, Shirley, Eunice Goh, Eugene from NJ, Zestin, Zhi Le, Gabe Lee, Beatrice, Yang Sheng, Shadiq, Garry, Steph Chan... & MORE (sorry I can't remember haha) THANK YOU FOR YOUR KIND WORDS! :)

& Song & I took a photo with Plainsunset YEAH! :)

Lots of love,
Paul

Rock Night's over

2008-08-02T23:25:00.000-07:00

To Wen Song, Sarah & Sam - You guys rock, seriously, I love you guys man.

To everyone who clapped and cheered, thank you.
To all my friends, thanks for coming down to watch, though I really do stone too much I guess the friend/unfriend ratio was nearly to a downright zero. Hmm that didn't make much sense. Haha. Namely (as far as I can recall right now) Daniel John, North, the AEP girls (thanks for the card!)... That's about it, yes I have a sad life. =P

Sadly there's gonna be like, no more, 'cause it's like this thing called a indefinite hiatus. I'll be working on my own project in the time being, hopefully my home recordings will suffice & I can learn from Wen Song, I need a better voice man.

Ciao,
Paul

Rock Night '08

2008-07-24T08:18:00.000-07:00

NJC Rock Night '08.
1st August. Tickets available now. 97285664.
We're opening the show at 7pm, in the LT1, NJC.

Colour My Life '08

2008-05-15T08:48:00.000-07:00

One Hot Minute will be playing at Fort Canning Park.
Date: 15th June 2008
Time: 7:30PM
Tickets: $15. Contact Paul, 97285664 for tickets. (I need to know by this FRIDAY, 6^th June)
Venue: Fort Gate, Fort Canning Park

Bands:
1. Fizz
2. Exit 9
3. One Hot Minute
4. XD
5. Delorean
6. August Avenue
7. TBC
8. Finding Michelle
9. Redeeming the Riot

(Click here for more details)

It's called Colour My Life '08, to raise funds for Club Rainbow, a children's charity organisation.

Secondly, there's a reshuffle in OHM. North'll be away back in his hometown of Thailand this June, so we've got a new drummer for Colour My Life & NJ Rock Night, Sarah. The bassist for Colour My Life is still Marcus, but for NJ Rock Night, Marcus simply does not have the time to play for it, so Samuel will be bassing.

We're terribly sorry that we cannot get a solid group together as One Hot Minute. We'd love to. We can't be a band of sessionists, just people getting together just to play at concerts. We're a band. I hope that we can stabilise our lineup ASAP. That would be for the greater good.

Cheers &
God Bless,
Paul

UPDATE: Marcus can't make it for Colour My Life. He'll be overseas from 11-15^th June. So right now we have no bassist. It's either we have a replacement (argh, I don't wanna go back to that issue) or we go acoustic with the remaining members of OHM.

Bass Guitar

2008-03-21T05:15:00.000-07:00

One Hot Minute is looking for a Bassist ASAP, to play for NJ Rock Night '08. Must be committed (once a week usually) & have the passion. Contact 97285664 now.

(EDIT: A bassist has been found.)

Insanely Long Photo - Video - Reaction: MGS Band[AGE]

2008-03-09T19:34:00.000-07:00

Hello there, having probably stumbled across this blog from Google.

PHOTOS:

Thanks to you 4 girls from my NJ class, 08S16, & Ivan, for coming down to support!

Finally a big thanks you to my father, Eunice & Kelly for the photos =D

REACTION:
(Click on the images to go to the blogs)

"One Hot Minute was really nice" - Thanks, it's really appreciated.

"Pitypity, no RHCP songs." - DAMN MAN. I knew I should've pushed Wen Song to sing RHCP. Damn. Haha. Ah well. On hindsight, I think doing RHCP would've been perfect too since Marcus can slap that bass better than HY slaps my ass. Haha.
"Oh, 'The Remedy', by One Hot Minute. Gosh. That guy's voice is just amazing. Seriously. He totally powered the song throughout. Hahaha. But they didnt have as much hype as the Acsi bands." - Wow, a big thank YOU. Not as much hype? Yeah agreed. We only sold like 20 tickets. Haha =D

"Oh, and the ridiculous jerking…my god. It made me bloody dizzy. It was as though he/they was a bleeding puppet on strings - at the beginning I believe the guitarists were also jerking. Jerking off. Heh. Strewth." - Only 3 words for that: WHAT. THE. HECK?! Haha.

"i thought One Hot Minute was quite good but they didn't win..):" - Wow, thanks once more to you. It really helps to have people who think you're good. Thanks.

"ONE HOT MINUTEEEEE! Hahaha, they were really quite good, but they didnt get top 3, ):" Again, thank you. OH I just realised that your post title is friggin' "Its gonna take some time to realize♥". Wow. I'm speechless.

"4th was one hot minute" - Ooh, not bad! That's good to know, coming in 4th. Really not bad, considering that One Hot Minute just nearly 2 months old. & considering that Marcus came in 2 weeks before Band[AGE].

"Stellastory played at MGS yesterday, as the guest band for some event called Band(age) which was quite shitty except for the last band, Redeeming the Riot?" - See? Redeeming The Riot owned. Haha. Good job to them! For POINTFOUR =D

"& i thought that one hot minute should have been like 3rd or something. they were pretty nice :)" - Amazing. Thanks.

"I LOVELOVELOVE HIS VOICE :D:D:D:D:D" - Wen Song, this one's for you man! Cute boy! Haha =D

"And if based on the judges score alone... TML would have won! The win was only by a small margin ok!!! (Lol. I really shouldnt be saying so much but i don't care any more!!!!) I helped count votes ok:) So i (and a few others) know the exact scores:P" - Wow it was really tight, yeah. I have a niggling feeling that that's Yiling's blog, the MOTHER of Band[AGE]. Okay it isn't. But THANKS to her man, she really did an awesome job in organising Band[AGE]. 3 cheers for her. Haha. No wait. it isn't her blog I think after looking at the photo.

Ah well, in the end, Band[AGE] rocked. MEP room 7 rocked, once more.
& I should smile on stage. I think I was too concentrated. Haha.

'Til the next post... Good night =D
