Listen to music is one thing, playing musical instrument is another.Some musical instruments seem to be quite easy to play but if who handle it, some will just go numb.Playing in tune with the others, keeping with the rhythmic pace can be a challenge for some.But some they are are just naturally born with such talent.
But I guess, one of the simple instrument one can play besides the Triangle is the Tambourine, yet, if you cannot grasp the whole idea of the musical tempo, even the simple jingle of the tambourine can be out of tune.Interestingly, woman and musical instrument goes along quite fine together, or perhaps, people just love to associate woman with musical instruments?As curvy as the violin, thou the double bass is curvier with more volume.
.. it's getting late ... eermm.. or shall I say ... very early in the morning ....
... playing accordion need a special skill .... may not be as easy as it looks ... yet it is a classic instrument which can be made interesting if combined .. and played with the right mixes ...
.. five days into hari raya... TV channels are still showing entertainment shows ... live entertainment even ... some are very interesting .. some are re-runs ... nevertheless.. at least .. there's always something to watch on telly ....
.... a harmonious musical performance ... live on the street by young talented musician ... .. hmmm.. should have something like this in the locale ....
.. since we can't watch Singapore's TV channel in Brunei ... hence we don't really know what kind of celebrations they usually are having for their national day ... thou we can read them from The Straits Times (Singapore Edition), which is available in Brunei .......... but usually ... we know how the Malaysians celebrate their national day .. because we can watch their local TV channel in Brunei .... especially ... those mega concerts with their popular artists.... awaiting for the clock to strike 12 or 0000 Hours on 31 August....... well.... in Singapore they also do such celebration ... a free concert was held within the vicinity of the Esplanade ..... the Marina Bay area .... performance by Singapore local artists ...
... countdown celebration ... at exactly 12:00am 09.08.07 .... (wow ... nice number.... just realised that ...) ...... the people celebrating the National Day of Singapore ...
MC: .... yeaaaa... u want more free music?? ..... of course... we all know that we Singaporean love FREE stuffs.... got free concert some more what ....
.... every few hundred metres along the street .. one can not miss the tent full of talented local musicians ... each tent was represented by various musician throughout the country .. such as from Belait ... Brunei-Muara.... Ministry of Culture, Youth & Sports.... and such ...... I do love music ... especially listening to live music ... .. in order to listen to quality sound .... one need to have a good quality seperate hi-fi systems in your room ... not those midi.. mini... or all in one compo and the likes.... but with those seperate amp .... CD or DVD player .... with such brands like Marantz, Yamaha, NAD, Sherwood.. and speakers of ... Tannoy, Mordaunt Shorts,Denon, AE .. just to name a few affordable but very good quality systems.... not to mention QED cables ... Cable-Talk .... etc ...... man .. I could just ...list out stuff about Hi-Fi ... but this post is not actually about hi-hi .... eerk.... cana boleh nyimpang ani .... ... oh well... anyway .....perhaps.... I might just upload more photo about musicians..... hmmmm.....
.. one of the talented young musician on the mini stage ... playing one of the many local percussions .... ... not so surprisingly... many of the musicians are ladies .... which means that .... we give both equally opportunities to both sexes .... :) .... be it in the artistic fields .... or engineering and such .... ... speaking of which ... lately.. so many female photographers are quietly keeping pace with the male ..... and offline, as I'm often bombarded with "who are they the ladies photographers?" question..... and who knows... (since I've managed to capture some of their pix) I might reveal ... some of those talk about female photoshooters ... ;)
.. waduh ... emangnya gimana eya .... meremang deh bulu gue ..... .... lagi sedang santai di tepi pantai .... asyik dong ... bisa tenang sih pikiran nya ........ ngak apa ... udah di bilangen sama bokap dan nyokap lho .... lagi ok duang tu ........... bagi yang jomblo .... bisa ketemu deh ama calon pacar.... bisa jadi panasaran tu .... kayaknya ngak ada beda deh ama konglomerat .... ... atau ... bisa di goyang deh ... dengaren lagu Si Jablai .... enak dong .....

Iwan Fals & Franky S. (Album Single 1988)
Suatu hari
Dikala kita duduk ditepi pantai
Dan memandang
Ombak dilautan yang kian menepi
Burung camar
Terbang bermain diderunya air
Suara alam ini
Hangatkan jiwa kita
Sementara
Sinar surya perlahan mulai tenggelam
Suara gitarmu
Mengalunkan melodi tentang cinta
Ada hati
Membara erat bersatu
Getar seluruh jiwa
Tercurah saat itu
Kemesraan ini
Janganlah cepat berlalu
Kemesraan ini
Ingin kukenang selalu
Hatiku damai
Jiwaku tentram disampingmu
Hatiku damai
Jiwaku tentram bersamamu
Bersamamu
... alone in the beach .... watching the waves wrestling with the shore .... .. listening to the trembling of the waves...... .... feeling the sea breeze caressing your face ..... ... smelling the fresh clean Oxygen .... the unpolluted air ............ strumming the string of the guitar melancholicly ..... ......... cherishing those sweet .. and not so sweet moment .... yet .. still can bring a smile to your face .... or perhaps ... without realising .... droping a tear or two .... from the watery eyes ..... perhaps ... the tears of joy ... or tears or sadness... nevertheless..... just being there..... feeling the moment ..... could really make one .... hmmmm....... ;)
... and suddenly .... remembering the moment at the beach .... this song comes to mind.... If You Ever ... By ... East 17 ft. Gabrielle
Hey, Oh yeah, Come On, WhoaahIf You Ever, HeyMy my my myThe very first time that I saw your brown eyes,Your lips said hello and I said hi,I knew right then that you were the one,But I was caught up in physical attraction,Much to my satisfactionMaybe you were more than just a friend.* And If you ever (ever fall)Fall in love again now babyYou must make sure that the lady is a friendAnd if you ever (ever fall)Fall in love so true now babyYou must be sure that she feels the same way too *If I say that I will be your one and onlyPromise that you'll never leave me lonelyI just wanna be the one you needI just wanna be the one to serve you,Sometimes I feel as if I don't deserve youI'd cherish every moment that we shareWhile we're on this East 17 thingy ... remembered this conversation few years back ...during those university years ....GF : .... Eh... East 17 tukar nama ah ari atu jadi E17Geng: ...ah .. awu .....
GF : ... eyatahkan ... dorang tukar nama lagi ......Geng: .... adeh... eyakah ..? .. apa lagi dorang tukar...?
