Went for one of Mosaic Festival's concert with Aa_ and P_y_. "Montreux Jazz Special Concert BOB JAMES (USA) with Nathan East (USA), Jack Lee (Korea) & Lewis Pragasam (Malaysia) 11 Mar 06 Concert Hall 7.30pm "They are GOOD. Gosh... the drum Lewis Pragasam was like totally loosed limbed and relaxed, no sweat breaking. I suspect Bob James had classical training, I heard a lot of romantic chords and progressions being used! Not totally jazz. Nathan East! WOOoaah.... he's so cool, plays the bass like an electric guitar. He's pretty versatile too! Sang his own compositions and whistled in tune! Too bad the sound for the Korean guitarist was so soft. Everytime he played the other 3 had to tone down so we could hear him. >_<; But the chemistry between the musicians were so totally cool. A lot of musical jokes thrown in for good measure too! Like those big band endings. hahaha... they were so exaggerated!
Later went for a free performance of S. Korea's Oh! Brothers. Gosh THEY ROCK! Their spoken english was bad, but anyway they had korean fans on the ground, so no biggie if they could only speak marginally. hahaha... Really jiving lor... everybody on ground were like swinging and clapping, some were even dancing... The lead singer had this really shreaky shreak. But they were darn cute. Korean version of the Beatles. Kinda reminded me of Austin Powers ~ Yeah Baby! Yeah! hahaha.... At the end of their performance my left ear was deafened. Aa_ and P_y_ were both deafened too. Oh well... we were right at the front so got the first hand blast from the speakers. hahaha....
