Alrighty, first things first - Results and Incubus Gig on Friday = MAYJUH F- UP
Results were abysmal but yeah, I'll apply for anything and everything I can lay my hands on.
On a brighter note, at least I got to see cute guys (albeit very very very very VERY few and some younger 'uns who can't really count) in school and some uniforms (read: 1) and a hawt guy in uniform (that 1) so I'm happy enough. Add Incubus concert to the equation and you get a triggerhappy to the point of being insane girl.
Moving on now,
In the Q: 30 Seconds To Insanity
That photo of me looking like a ridiculous ah soh there is to make up for any unglam pics of you and you (you know who you are!) in the following lines to come. Special mention to Aunty Shar for her knack to take candid and just so bloody silly looking pics of anyone, anytime.
Godblessher :D
Also, I think Eunice looks so keeyoot-i-want-to-pinch-her-cheeks-and-say-googoogaga in there. If you think so too, leave a tag so that camera-shy Eunice will be flattered and welcome roving wannabe photogs like me and Shar!
Again, Shar's photog skills take credit. I thought the first pics's kinda cool cause Eunice looks as if she's otherworldly (read: she resembles a ghost) but my hair looks crappy in there, yuckers. OH OH OH, I especially like Eunice's pose in the second one, I wonder what she was thinking then. Eh n00b, what were you thinking of ah?
Was it - "Why does he talk so loud, he's giving me a freaking headache!" or
"I could marry that Indian boy and produce nice beautiful Chindian offsprings with a fondness for rock/metal music and men with ponytails!" or
"HUH?!"
Discuss.
Getting In: A Smoker/s InsideAround 6.30 pm, we were finally let in and feeling the first proper twinge of excitement (hearing Saosin practise prior to the gig didn't count). We managed to score a spot which wasn't too far back though we definitely wished we could have been at the even futher in front but still, a pretty good place nonetheless.
Timecheck: 1850h, and the concert was tentatively scheduled to start at 8pm so itchy fingers took to cameraphones.
TEEHEE. Chindian gay couple, lovesit!
On a grumpy note, I hate morons who insist on puffing away on their fags in spaces which are already so enclosed. Hello, I know it's open air but you do realise we have to share the air around us and that you have barely enough space to stand, much less squat? That should be an indication to you how close you are to other people who include non-smokers, particularly those who get easily peeved by the smell of smoke and generally smoke in their faces?
Mindless and inconsiderate jackasses, I hope you choke on your next ciggy and die of asphyxiation. Either that or you get cancer that makes you grow sores / warts / really ugly and disgusting stuff on your lips so the whole world can see, HAH.
Hehe, I love the last pic. Eunice looks like she's doing her best gangsta impression.
Those are some really whackjob pics but good memories, good times (:
That girl as pointed by the red arrow was absolutely nuts and probably got drunk on Absolut also. She reeked.
CRAZY TWIRLING, SPINNING UNSTABLE ADOLESCENT! Her friends were no better, one of her male friends actually kept pushing her back and forth in spins to perhaps ensure that she doesn't lose momentum. Mad.
Her moshing friends were the sole reason we got superdupe scared we were gonna die young at the concert and worse still, before Incubus' performance. They jumped and screamed to Saosin's numbers but I bet they had no clue as to what they were singing save for "BURY ME BURY ME" (I think that's how a chorus went) More on that later.
Oh yeah, have I told you?
The reasons are evident:
The Real Deal: Panic! At The Park
BRANDON BOYD TOOK OFF HIS SHIRT CAUSE THE SINGAPORE HEAT GOT TO HIM, AAAAHHHHHH!
^$(@$)%@*$HJSKJQ134i3RU@*@$*)*@#&$@)%#!!!!!
Okay, I'm close to sane already. :D
Rewinding back a bit, the Saosin opening act was ohkaayyyy lah.
I knew almost nothing of their songs even though I've heard some in the past months. They're just not my cup of Coke I suppose.
The frontman did engage the audience better than Brandon but yeah whatevv, I paid to see Incubus live (and for Brandon to strip).
Some people put us quite in a funk during the concert.
1. Smokers
2. Moshers
Some people seemed like they were godsent during the concert.
1. Eunice
2. Dansya (an Indian girl we befriended who came all the way from M'sia)
1. Seriously, Eunice was like Sharlene's and my anchor. When Sharlene was about to get drifted away by the crowd which suddenly moved and shook and gawdknowswhatelse, Eunice stuck her hand out and pulled her back. When my life was threatened (okay, a bit of exaggeration there but it didn't feel like it at that time) by headbanging drunks who were bent on making me join them, Eunice also came to the rescue!
She's our hero (:
2. When the group of drunk adolescents on a music and alcohol high moshed like there'll be no more concerts after that, they pushed the people around them left right back front and centre. I was just beside them and that mad spinning girl of a human top kept knocking against me and looked at me as if it was my fault and was perhaps ready to start a brawl but fortunately Dansya pulled me away and shouted in my ear "CAREFUL! ANYWAY, THEY'RE LIKE THAT, DON'T BE TOO SCARED. YOU OKAY?". I think I was too stunned to move. There were 2 more incidents like that but she deftly steered me clear of real danger so thank you Dansya, wherever you are (:
At the end of the concert, we compared stats and we found that
3 girls fainted and
2 fights broke out.
Exhilirating or what.
Oh yeah and a bottle of Coke costs 4 bloody bucks. I treated Eunice cause she forked out cab fare (a bit of digression here: the cabby actually forgot to turn on his meter from PS to Fort Canning Park! but we paid $5 anyway)
Oh well, when you gotta drink, you gotta drink. It was the best Coke I've ever tasted.
Post-Concert: YeahwestankWhat do you expect after 2 hours or so being squeezed in a crowd with very little breathing space right. Anyway, after Incubus played for 1.5h (which wasn't enough for me and I'm sure the other fans share my sentiments. Heck, they didn't play songs I was looking forward to like I Miss You, Agoraphobia and Love Hurts!!!) we tried to linger around, hoping to catch a glimpse of the
band Brandon and get some autographs / peeksies. We didn't manage to do that, but we did see a crazy rabid fangirl and believe me when I say crazy rabid fangirl.
She tried to jump the fence and shrieked "I LOVE YOUUU BRANDON!" to which Sharlene indignantly declared "That's MY line!", lol. That attempt obviously failed as there was security at hand to stop any fanatics who wanted to meet the band backstage. Nevertheless, the girl tried again and the second time around, we saw her male friend just smiling sheepishly carrying his friend off. Cute boy.
Pictures!
Eh Eunice, that blank spot is reserved for your photo okay? Lol.
Tired but happy (:
I think that's all there is to it, peaceeee outttttt.
