Heard that long time ago, and it's in the recorded vid this time. xD

Of course. 1.53am leh, all sleep liao, u still laugh so loud.

Actually, I did... almost woke my mum up sia. Since it is 1am+, she woke up = I die.

That video... simply kills off my a-bit-bad mood on the same day. Wakakaka!

Haha, for that part, it's supposed to make people laugh de. But in LIVE, i don't have kapibara to do that so hopefully the results will turn out funny to the judges though.

Thanks YM for the camera for recording!!
And special thanks for gias playing the tambourine. Yue was down with illness that day so she can't make it.

It sounds way better last practice, just hope that it'll continue to sound better till the competition date.

That is why you may have to "make use" of other participants who are not playing drum. (:

Last practice i'm referring to Friday where there is only the drum alone without any tambourines/gong etc in our team. Cos' YM's sick and Meow working. So there's only brandon, sky and me around to practice our drums parts. Yue's there but she said that without YM her maracas part hard to play so there's no maracas part as well. Therefore it's only drum parts alone without any other thing. It turn out to sound better than any practices so far cos' the drum parts are in sync. 6 people team end up only 3 people practicing. haha, giaz is there too but we didn't "make use" xD

Then feel free to use me. LOL

I don't use people hahahahah

Just a suggestion... From the video, the tambourine ppl look a little stiff lehs. Like, maybe u guys can think of something to make the performance a little more lively?

From the video, I am very sure that it was quite a lot of improvement from the last time I came over. Great job guys!

As for the stiffness, well based from my experience, facial expressions also play an important role in every performance and competitions. It makes people see the group as a very enthusiastic lot and have the impressions that you enjoy what you play. Also, for small instrument players, they can try to add some hype moves according to the beat to make the whole group more lively and happening. And maybe add some vocal (eg screaming effects, etc) to the performance would not be a bad idea too. These can actually be plus points in a competition. And perhaps some great costumes might work too? w

The video... I kept LOL-ing sia.

This is regarding the transport of our instruments.

Since we seem to be having problems finding ppl who own vans/lorries/pickups, i thought maybe we could rent from car rental companies, and perhaps CK wld be willing to be our driver for the day? xD

here are some of the websites i found that offer van/lorry rentals. no prices are listed, but can someone volunteer to call and find out the rental rates please?

OMG tmr is finally the day of auditions >_< it's been more than 2 months of hard work on everyone's part, especially from our representatives (the main team) who will be showing those peeps what taikodojo is made of =)

Although i'm not part of the main team, i'll just say a few words of the usual cliche stuff to the team (though i really mean these words):

you guys have really worked very hard, and i've seen that in the hours you spent practising, and since tomorrow is finally the day, get ample rest, don't eat anything that might give u a stomachache, etc. Anyway, I wish you all the best of luck for the auditions tomorrow, and really hope you guys get in (probably will pwn the other teams). Once again, thanks for all the hard work you've put in, and we're pinning all our hopes on you, so bring us glory! TAIKODOJO FTW!!~ SHOW 'EM WHAT TAIKODOJO CAN DO!

gd luck taikodojo for tmr!!
