KL Music Fest and Some Other Shiteness

In a word, the jazz fest was AWESOME! I truly enjoyed myself, and there was just so much energy zipping around on-stage. To be honest, there was a lot of brain-numbing bits too, too much of the samey stuff ppl produce.

Jazz is now a formula, lads and ladies. *sigh*

Now that I'm on the topic, I just want to voice out an opinion. I think the beauty of each instrumentalist doing a solo by turn in any given jazz piece ---- it's courtesy, it's a sign of mutual respect, and it shows a great deal of equality in a combo. That's fucking awesome. Singing is a solo kind of thing, except in jazz. It's really beautiful when the voice is itself an equal instrument in a combo. Yeah...

That being said, a solo tells a lot about a person's thought processes. The complexity, the logic, the ability...the works. Coupled with ability and technique, a good solo is a joy to hear AND watch.

Side comment on my CoLoR-MaDnEss


  1. I bought a book on html for the Cammies website (I wanted to pretty it up lar!!)
  2. I'm no longer gainfully employed in a time-consuming environment, and can finally put some effort into something flippant and fluffy ---- my blog.
  3. I -like- colors! Nyah! :p
  4. I despise being bored.


Okie, if my bed had a personality, I would say at this moment that it is a sexy, naked, alpha-male creature lounging on its side, and beckoning me to jump on it and end up sleeping....don't bother speculating about the in-between :p Hubby ain't getting none either now, is he! Nyah, to overseas/long-distance relationships.
