Before Battle at Zouk.. (band history continues..)

Suddenly during my way back home from work, I remember one mini gigs that we performed on the year 2002. Before the battle at  Zouk la.. Lines up at that time, Joe (guitar n vox), Nazri (guitar n vox), Nyed (bassists) and Amy (drummer). The gigs was held at Concorde Studio, Jalan Meru Klang. It was just a mini gigs. The funny parts was the stage was covered with a grill. Feel like jamming in a cage (dah la sempit.. ada palang plak tu..). But the crowd was really sporting at the time. Forgot the song list that we played that time. If I'm not mistaken.. Milk it (Nirvana), High Skool (our song) and the rest I can't remember. That time I'm using my new guitar. Cheap-cheap guitar la.. an SX guitar. Telecaster copy (yellow color.. now I paint it black) because to get a fender guitar cost a lots of cash la.. You know what I meant. The efx was Boss DS2 (turbo distortion) and Boss DS3 (fuzz). But the sound that came out from the amp that night was really not satisfied me. It is definitely because of the cheap guitar pick ups. Plan to change it but as a student, where to get cash? (PTPTN pun sudah habis..). When we're on the stage, everything changes. The view is different.. the feeling was different..

In 2003, we enter a battle in Bukit Jalil celebrated 'Youth day' (sempena hari belia). Can't remember the organizer, so many things can't remember la.. just getting older.. Song list :

1. Lunatik
2. Forgiveness (instrumental)

This time the lines up was Nazri (guitar n vox), Joe (guitar), Janggot (bassist) and Ayip (drummer). That time we're using Sonic Mush name. Even-though Janggot act as a bassists, my personal point of view he is a good guitarist but since joined the band he played a bass because we're lack of bassists (seriously bro..).

Our mission to serve society with our brand of music getting near and near.. The crowd getting bigger and bigger. But as usual, we didn't win a thing. I admit, not everybody can adapt my music la. But anyway we have a lot of joy. Only during our way back home (lepak jap kat perhentian Awan Besar), the organizer called Joe saying that the top 3 band quit, so they want us to perform that night on the final occasion. That means that we're number 4 la.. But I said thanks but no thanks. Because we are really tired that day and the mood to battle is only left 10% la.. Pack our things and chow.. Actually now I realized at that time, I never heard about Bunk face, Grey Sky Morning and other klang band even though we came from the same Klang scene.. But now they are at the top of indie world. Salute you guys.. ha2.. (to be continued..)
