Boneshaker budak baik.. cayang..
it would be so much easier for me to keep track to the gigs i have to attend.
because i wont look at the title of the gig.. i look at the dates too. and sometimes if the thread is way more than one page, its a hassel.

aku rasa Bode dah dengar cerita dari sham.
cuma utk level aku, i was enjoying the gig, venue macam panggung wayang. Semua sekali 8 band yang perform.
Sugar Pop(kitorang) main turn yang ke 4.. ada beberapa insiden yang tak sepatutnya berlaku masa kitorang perform(biasa la beginner). Semua orang komplen sound guitar aku tenggelam. Yang aku tau, aku dah open volume level 7. Lagi satu entah kenapa, guitar aku kejap2 tak keluar sound.(ada la dlm 4-5 kali). Tgh syok menyolo tiba2 sound hilang! So aku pun main wayang je la.. melenggok sana sini tapi sound tak ada.. hahha.. pastu tiba2 sound keluar balik. Pastu dalam beberapa minit dia hilang balik. Cable adalah penyebab yang paling disyaki.
Gig tu bertambah best bila Boneshaker ambil alih stage. Diorang memang profesional. 2 orang guitarist diorang bawak amp gajah masing2. Semua fender. Equipment yang diorang bawak complete. (Aku pun dengan tak tau malu pinjam diorang power extention). Boneshaker yang mmg bermain di club kat Melaka main lagu2 blues dan rock n roll. Mmg cool habis. Good comunication too..
akhir sekali sham main dengan band rojak. Dia dtg sorang. Masa dia perform, dia panggil line up campur2 dari band2 yang main. 4 guitarist sekali main. Masa final song, diorang main lagu Red House(jimi hendrix).. solo bergilir2 lepas tu solo ramai2. Bayangkan je la 4 guitarist solo serentak.. mmg langau je la..hahah..
Memandangkan itu ialah gig buat pertama kali nya aku perform, byk lesson learn yang aku dpt. Aku tgk sham pakai POD je. Dia kata dia cuma pakai rack peti ais dia utk konsert2 besar je rupanya.
So aku pun tgh kemaruk nak beli POD dgn floorboard ni. Senang cerita.. Noise minimum, nak setup pun cepat. Hahaa jadi mat digital pulak la lepas ni..

Respek la ko Wan...baru first gig dah main depan 400 orang...lepas tu jamming dgn Sham pulak tu! This is definitely a great start!
Pasal sound tu...slow slow, you gotta learn to get more control of your sound rather than the soundman. And during live, a lot of the things happening are beyond your control anyway...but try to use as much as possible your own equipment...if not all totally yours (which is the best). Masa kat Neil Zaza punya gig hari tu, it was difficult for me because the first thing is I'm not allowed to play my own guitar( feels much less comfortable...which is a bad thing because I need to spar with Sham at certain parts in the gig! )...and I have to use whatever amp they have there...so I got no control over my sound. Of course, my guitar levels are much lower than Sham's, but luckily it worked well for the situation because this is Sham's band, with him in the spotlight, and my function there is to be his sideman. One thing we gotta learn as musicians, is we must learn to adapt to different situations...be it live or in the studio. Sometimes, when the situation calls for you to be in the spotlight (for instance...you are the guitarist in a 3 piece band playing hard rock/blues), you gotta be really upfront and louder than hell. And sometimes when you are the sideman, you gotta know when to step back and leave the spotlight to the main performer(I'm sure you wont be hired again if you have the stage presence of Yngwie Malmsteen while you are backing Ning Baizura!).
If you watched the Steve Vai Live in Astoria or the G3 Denver DVD, you must have realised that Tony McAlpine's guitar levels are much lower than Steve Vai's...and he only comes to the front when he needs to 'spar' with Vai. We all know that Tony is a shredder from hell...probably even more so than Steve Vai, but he was extremely professional about not stealing the spotlight. In fact, even during the gig, when Steve was introducing Tony to the audience, Steve even said that "I hope Tony is not gonna kick my ass!"
Great start bro...get more gigs....any gigs...playing 1 hour live is worth more than 8 hours practicing at home. When the time comes when you are already a rock star, let me open for you! |

thanks for the tips and advise bro. That day i didnt jamm with sham.. sham played with his band and i with mine. Tapi tpt dia berdiri kat atas stage tu, aku pun berdiri kat situ jugak la.. huu bangge bangge.. ahhaha..
Steve Vai live in Astoria mmg gila. Aku puas betul tgk DVD concert dia tu.. terutama masa dia main lagu A Wishpering Prayer, tersangat2 soul pada aku. Tony's keyboard solo pun incredible la.
