What a weekend!!!
Monday, January 29th, 2007I just had a hell of a music weekend.. No words can desribe the excitement that i had, which explains why it took a one-day-break for me to actually wake up to reality and start writing this blog..
All of it actually started the weekend before, when a bunch of friends went for TV3’s Gang Starz audition on 21st January 2007@Berjaya Times Square,KL.. Almost all of them were selected to go through the next round.. However, there’s one particular vocal group that captured the hearts of not only the judges, namely Pot Innuendo, Juliza Adlizan, and Azmeer, but all of the people who’re there listening to their audition.. by the time they finished singing their two songs, everybody was cheering and clapping because they’re really entertained by the group’s performance.. yeah, the outstanding vocal group is called INFINATEZ.. this group is so special not only because they can sing and harmonize very, very well, but they also write their own songs.. They even appeared in last Thursday’s Kosmo.. I tell y’all, these guys must be the next Gang Starz!! Get ready to vote for them, because they’ll surely be one of the finalist who’ll represent Malaysia soon, and I guarantee y’all that these fellas will make us Malaysians proud!!!
check out INFINATEZ’s myspace here and blog here..
one of INFINATEZ’s talented group members, Alvin Mahathir Yunus, was my fourvoices groupmate before he started making songs and then offered to join INFINATEZ, making the line-up so superb now.. this fella rocks, y’all..

So, I went to support them@Berjaya Times Square, but I was late and missed their audition
yes, everything I said earlier was based on hear-say, not until 26th January 2007 (last Friday night) during Layar Tanchap Kolaborasi@Galeri Seni Shah Alam..
yeah, Layar Tanchap, is a special monthly open-mic event where anyone can perform or showcase their arts be it singing, playing musical instruments, poetry-reading, painting, monologue, etc.. and the admission is free.. I can say that it was one of the best Layar Tanchap I’ve ever attended because of so many reasons:
The location is strategic enough to draw lots of art/music-loving crowd, who came mostly from Shah Alam and Klang Valley;
The line-up of performers that night was among the best ever! The likes of our independent acts, namely Hujan, Najwa Mahiaddin, and INFINATEZ, simply stole the show..not to forget two acts from Singapore, Lady E and Imran Ajmain, who also made their appearance with their own style of music..check out for Imran’s song in Anuar Zain’s coming album..this guy rocks!
All in all, I must say that it was INFINATEZ who made a really swift-but-very-effective presence in Layar Tanchap Kolaborasi..They performed the very same two songs they sang during Gang Starz audition, and they’ve shown to everyone that night why they earn their way to the next round and even last Thursday’s Kosmo newspaper..
Yeah, Layar Tanchap Kolaborasi rocks! But not as HARD and ICE-COLD as BoyzIIMen Concert @ Genting’s Arena of Starz..This was the peak of my musical weekend..I went there on 27th January 2007, got the best seat I can get, PS1 at Early Bird’s rate.. just behind the VIPs.. It’s BoyzIIMen! I’ll pay, even if the ticket price is RM5,000/= ahaha.. no la, kidding only
Lots of Malaysian celebrities were there too.. It was a blast!! I’ve met lots of familiar faces as well.. The ladies went crazy, especially when Nate started giving out fresh roses.. The performance was so superb, I even dropped a few tears in awe!! Shawn, Nate, and Wanya, you guys are the best!! Your vocals, showmanship, crazy phenomenal!! Like I said before, no words can describe it!!
Pengalaman yang x dapat saya lupakan:
Went to Boyz II Men Concert, 27th January 2007, Genting’s Arena of Stars..
I just wish they can prolong the concert.. Time flies really fast.. At the first interval, the fellas have been singing for more than an hour, but it felt like they’ve just started..That’s how awesome Boyz II Men are.. After the show, I stayed in the Arena with my wify Sue, Rizale of MyUrban.net, Quadrose, Hearts of Men, Defoo of SoulDelite.com and INFINATEZ.. Then, suddenly a small crowd cheered and there they are, Boyz II Men came out and said good bye for the last time.. We managed to shake hands and take some pictures with all three of them!! And that, my friends who’re reading this blog religiously up to this point, is priceless
I’ve paid for everything, the concert tickets, the petrol, the toll, the MyUrban.net t-shirt, the Theme Park Hotel room.. All of that cannot amount to the experience I’ve endured that night.. Truly PRICELESS.. No words can describe.. I’m really² satisfied now
What a weekend…
