Siam Saxophone Quartet: An Evening Of Saxes. @ Republic Polytechnic.

Planned to meet @ 3pm, but everyone end up leaving house at 3pm.
Haha, Meet at IKEA bus stop.
Then Lisa wanted to eat the hot dog in IKEA.
So we went in IKEA, bought a hot dog each and Lisa bought a drink.
The drink is refillable, so JM go refill and pour it into his water bottle.
Haha, auntie. =x
After eating, took bus 168 to Woodlands Interchange.
Then changed bus to 169 and drop outside Republic Polytechnic.
Reach there around 4.40pm, went over to TRCC studio.
Saw Gabriel outside, get our tickets from him and went in the studio.
First reaction when walk in. OMG.
Cause theres only 4 seats and stands on the "stage".
Its not a stage actually, its the same level as the floor.
But the audience chair are like concert hall that kind.
Not much seats though.

If it were to be me, Sharon, Lisa and JM to perform there, I think we would stage fright until faint.
Haha, I'm exaggerating luh, won't faint.
Then the emcee came out.
Fat fat one, quite funny at times.
4 saxophonist came out and sat on the chairs.
Soprano, Alto, Tenor and Baritone saxes.
The soprano saxophonist is the biggest size among the rest but plays the smallest instrument.
His name is BIG. (Not sure if this is the correct spelling).
The Alto Saxophonist wears specs, look quite okay lah.
His name is TOO. (Not sure if this is the correct spelling).
The Tenor Saxophonist looks old.
Not old actually, maybe its because of his hairstyle.
His name is Josh.
The Baritone Saxophonist is so damn hot.
LOL, JM drool over him.
Really very good looking compared to the rest.
Plus he wear shades.
His name is ARM. (Not sure if this is the correct spelling).
Then I realise when their names put together, it becomes..
JOSH ARM TOO BIG.
Hahahhahahahaahah!!!
They had two pieces of quartet.
They start by eye contact, then one lead breath in damn hard, then all play together.
LOL, I don't know how to explain lah.
Next was the emcee's Alto sax solo.
Then the TOO had a solo with his saxophone.
He used FOUR stands to hold his uber long score.
A few other solos by the other members using Alto Sax.
Then the last guy, played a solo using tenor sax.
Their solos are weird.
Cause they make weird sounds with their saxophones and some parts they press the fingerings very hard, and blow very soft.
So the main sound is the buttons sound.
LOL, then was interval.
We down there planning that our sectionals also must like them.
When start playing, Lisa must breathe in damn hard.
Hahahah!
After interval, the pieces they played are much nicer.
Ohya, I hold ed my breath alot of time to stop myself from laughing.
Cause alot time when they produce funny sounds, I will laugh.
But the studio very quiet.
Cannot laugh, if not everyone will hear until.
So all I could do was hold me breath to prevent sound coming out.
We had some observations too.
They all stick they leg out when playing.
So JM and I is NOT WRONG!
Haha, but we stick out more far luh, they a little bit only.
Then Baritone saxophonist don't have to sit at the edge of the chair!
After the concert, we smsed Mr Pan.
We texted exactly the same words except the last word.
From Chia, From Ho, From Cheok, From Yeo.
Haha, Mr Pan didn't replied. ._.
Then walked to Causeway Point for Dinner.
Wanted to settle dinner @ Pasta Mania.
But Sharon say EX, so ate at Mos burger.
After dinner, walked around.
Then JM saw this CD.

He emphasize this to me and Lisa.

LOL!
9pm walked back to Woodlands Mrt.
Mrt-ed to Yishun and took Bus 39 back to pasir ris.
Reach home was super tired.
Quickly scribbled what I wanted to blog, cause I scared I will forget.
Haha, look!

Scribbles.
Super Illegible.
Haha, anyway, this photo I wanted to cover my left eye, cause not very nice.
Start with the Circle.
Then added the stick legs and hands.
Added the floor, and the another stick man.
Add eyes and mouth.
And a little of expression using the eyebrows.
Hahaha, then the question mark thing. =)

I like my hair~
