The Usual Suspects

This morning I thought I head down to the gym.

Unfortunately, laziness got the better out of me. Meh.

Oh well, I shall head down tomorrow morning then. Besides, today is a Sunday, so I was under the impression there would be a lot of people (although past experiences tells me this is not necessarily true).

Anyway, so instead of working out today, Chin Sheng dropped by my place and we exchanged CDs.

Fucking awesome I tell you. I traded Lunarin, Incubus, and Concave Scream's albums for Leslie Low's solo debut album, Astreal's Fragments Of The Same Dead Star, and a couple of movies too.

One of which is The Usual Suspects, a movie which I have really been wanting to watch for a while already.

It has an extremely complicated plot, confusing even, but nonetheless a great crime-drama film.

He also got me Inside Man and Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels.

Good stuff, and it's quite disappointing they don't make such good crime/thriller/drama flicks anymore.

I also bought The Producers yesterday after the Bukit Panjang Plaza gig/CDC Hip Hop Fest. The Producers is pretty funny too. Enjoyable film overall I guess, but not one of my favourites still.

Ah yes, the Bukit Panjang Plaza gig was pretty good. Other than the god awful boring crowd, and minor hiccups in our setlist, overall I say the band covered every song near perfectly.

And Calvin and I learned that next time if we're playing and we aren't miked up, he said we should put our amps side by side.

Apparently because some feedback was that the bass and guitars sounded split up (ie sounded like stereo, bass in left ear, guitars in right ear, lol).

Ah, seems like you can learn a lot from playing gigs.

I'm kinda looking forward to OverDrive 2006, not sure how that one will turn out.

Ah well, I shall return to watching movies.

Cheers!
