wednesday (ran out of titles)

iGiveup

i found that my iPod at least still charges when i plug it in to a PC. for now, i ain't updating my iTunes any further. in fact i'm planning to get rid of version 7 altogether. found an old iTunes 6 installation file... i shall install that and hope for the best!

the Gmail accessibility problem appears to have disappeared vis-a-vis my home network. not switching email addresses back tho, since i've already set up the new account..

re-building bridges

meanwhile, rehearsals for the Broken Bridges Ipoh show commenced yesterday with a bang... it was like a reunion of sorts.. we should do this every few months! bring broken bridges to Penang! (Building the Second Bridge?) J.B. (Crooked/Scenic Bridges?) ouch.

we had four new cast members, most of whom appeared to have very impressively learnt almost all the songs already (shame on us! ah, then again, we didn't have the benefit and convenience of a CD. ha ha). one hopes, though, they won't be remembered as "the guy who's singing vincent's part" or "the guy who's doing leroy's lines"..

Leong (not his real name) christened me Gen2 for my attempts at imitating our absent pianist (named Gen. duh.) 'tis a deep honour indeed to be named after our a model of our national car. many apologies for the botched modulations, butchered chords and general honky-tonkness (the last one wasn't my fault - couldn't find out how to turn on the sustain pedal!)

ah yes, tickets for broken bridges ipoh. tickets will be on sale to the public from the 22nd to the 26th of Nov 2006 (did i get the dates right? we're performing from 24-26 but the crew will be around from the 22nd onwards) at the Taman Budaya Perak, Ipoh (where the show's gonna be). alternatively, you may contact any of us cast members (i.e. myself included) to get tickets.

for all ye who read previous blog posts and totally regretted missing the shows in KL!

Broken Bridges The Musical, a charming tale of why white coffee doesn't taste the same anymore, and which played to awestruck audiences at KLPAC in August-September 2006, goes to Ipoh this month!

26 Nov 2006 @ 3.00pm
