What a freaking long weekend. It all started from saturday evening where after getting up, jaz picked me up & the road trip to kb began. Destination was a gig at panama which starts sunday noon. Karacoma was playing with a few other bands but i was surprised WLK was on too considering how this would be their first reappearance in 2yrs issit?
Anyways we had to turn back on the highway to pick up si jaz's shoes. Somewhere pass tutong we caught up with mawie on the road (who was supposedly otw there already when i left home), i'm gonna be nice here so i'll say he's a cautious driver.
Alot of unexpected sequence of events occurred for this whole trip. Like firstly in kb we got lost and ended up in some bsp guest house which was kinda off from town. It was instincts & luck that got us back to town.
By the time we got to the hotel riviera mawie was already there. Greeted Sam her friend Lisa & One, before changing to go grab sum grub & jamming. For like much cheaper then empire, this hotel had fucking decent rooms. Totally over expectations. The catch? Its like a no privacy joint, no locks on toilets (which made showers very hard but the tub omg if only i was with someone). The bedroom had transparent glass walls which i found out the hard way while changing. Tv near the couches, kitchen essentials, dvd player, more of a couples joint i'd say.
There's this huge place near the studio "wywy chicken rice" i think, dont let the name fool ya, its not the only dish on the menu, gud food huge variety catered our every meal the whole time we were there. The studio had got be the best ive seen so far, had a kinda homey feel to it. After a full hour of jamming, everyone was thirsty. We tried and tried but for the first time no alcohol whatsoever and a long ass sober night in the hotel with soccer and thankfully gud friends to layan. Luckily below the hotel was a lil cafe packed with the entire kb population or so it seemed watching soccer.
Oh man i dunno how many times we got lost in kb for just the 2 days we were there. By morning we made it to breakfast and after unsuccessful soundcheck, i drove around wit mawie to get some booze. Only by 10+am & without any sleep we started drinking. It was nice how lisa was around to keep us entertained with her huge archives of photos from the states. There's always something different in another country which somehow facinates me enough to the point where i wanna actually be there in person. In this case the $6 bucks for 4 or 5 mugs of beer from the back of a truck with live band playing and u get to keep the mug u refill with when ur done. Checked out at 1 then continued drinking till the gig.
I must be old cause the place was packed with kids. Tight ass security too. I only stayed for WLK & Karacoma after that mingling a lil with long time no see ppl. It didn't take long before we got back on the road & headed for bandar. Had a bit more to drink before passing out form exhaustion. When i got woken up Jaz had driven us to jp cz it was jz impossible to drive anymore. "Would u prefer it if i drove us here or into a drain?" in response when i asked why were in jp. We had a quick grub then hit the road again. Passed out the min i got home & got up 8hrs later with one hell of an appetite.
I think im done like seriously, i want a real break from all this right now & totally focus on getting things done like school shit. This time im for real...
