Was at SESSIONS on friday.
What a way to destress after a week of hectic studying.

It was a great night.
Shufflers aplenty, great and appreciative people who were there for the music.
Well, the music was great definitely.
A mixture of new tunes and old classics should never be missed.
Met a lot of old friends there. People like Jask, Phyllis, Aldrin, Mykel just to name a few.
Main room was playing hiptothehop. Nothing spectacular. Whats new?
But I did see a lot of schoolmates there. But they were in the main room. Not much chance to mingle around.
An interesting exchange between me and a old friend of mine, whom I shall not name said this, very mean, yet very true statement when we were chatting during the gig.

"The difference between the people in the 2 rooms(phuture & zouk), is that the people here at phuture, are here for the music. Whereas on the other side, who knows?"

How god damn true. At least, thats what I seen with my own eyes.

I'm not trying to criticise or anything. As I strongly believe in the theory of "One man's meat, another man's poison."
But, do the people really love the music? Are they really there for the music?
Its a debatable question.
One can argue about having a great night out with familiar tunes dished out by the DJ. Nothing wrong.
One can also argue that people are there to get hooked? Are they there just to know girls? Or are just plain out to "jia bah". The definition, that I shall leave it to the reader if there are any.
The most important thing is, you enjoy your night out.

But...
We have the best club in Asia in the form of Zouk, but about 3/4 of our clubbing crowd, third class.
The unappreciative, close-minded majority crowd of us. Only able to accept what the radio plays and not opened to new sounds.
Well, end of the day, different people different taste.

Kevin Jackson anyone?

Last but not least...
Great job by Brandon, Ivan, Kenny and Lionel for the music. Top notch.
Thanks Jask for the invites.
