as usual, on a butters gig.. me n topek will go together to pogo together.hehhe.. bot da tickets @ da ticket counter around 2 plus.. doors open nearly to 4pm.. show started around 415. last week showcase, (which i didnt hd da time to go) were performed by prana, 18sgg, love me butch(syarul buddy, hows it goin?) & 7 collar tshirt. this week's were by Damn Dirty Apes, Republic of Brickfields & OAG!!
damn dirty apes... haha... da drummer stared at me when i shouted DAMN.hee. its their band name wat..so lantakla...ur size dont scare me bud. their music style is like a fusion of incubus with a drop of reggae..their songs quite ok la..u can layan to their beat... but truely respect the guitarist..damn!mmg damn!the rifts (or goreng in malay) was truely awesome.. if u look at him properly, a sign pops out in ur head; "apa nerdy-specs ni buat kat sini?"...haha...nerds do rock man!!n dis guy was awesome.. creative on da way of changing da guitar moods n tones during the whole show.. a thumbs up for da bassist as well.. nice cool riffs.. relly appreciate the show dude..
then, up next was republic of brickfields..no no, its not an indian committee thingy dude..dis band is fronted by the lead singer of koffin kanser.yeah its aru.. consider as a taiko or legend in da underground scene..his dreadlocks are damn long!!down to his ass dude!! luckily there was no bad smell..hehe..RoB presented songs from their new debut album : GanjaRan.. Aru was totally sober..no more the image of the wasted underground taiko..but a taiko with respectable aura is wat he is now.. one of da songs dat relly kewl is Mabuk Lagi...he even preached to us of dont do drugs n alcohol..he admit, he totally wasted lastime.n relly regretted it.. here's the chorus of da song. i think. :D
'kau masih ada di sini,
mabuk kau, mabuk mabuk lagi
kau minum brandi
mabuk kau, mabuk mabuk lagi
ko minum todi
mabuk kau, mabuk mabuk lagi
kau minum whisky'
in da end, he said dat he's not encouraging us to drink. but to stay away from drinkin.but if you still want, 'itu kau punya pasal la!' da song GanjaRan oso hv some preachings. Aru said dat its not dat he wants us to smoke pot or get high on ganja n get da benefits from it. but, da true benefits dat shud be gettin from is from da almighty himself. yeah guys, aru has changed. RoB songstyles are mainly reggae...so we had a 1 hour plus rastafarian session..layan beb!!
up next, its OAG!! yup radhi wif new bandmates.. he wore baju melayu..someone asked "apsal pakai baju melayu?? n he answered "wa bangga sebagai rakyat malaysia beb!!huhu semangat siot.. dey presented the songs from the first album. lama giler have i heard sonic youth!!da crowd were ady hyped..add to da energetic funkyness of radhi, da crowd goes off!!at one sage, radhi was saying, kepala aku pening beb..haha... too hyper la tu...next da song from melody mocker album, the days when he was totallywasted. n he regretted too. i forgot da song title but i remember da lyrics tho..n it seems i was da only one singing along...cehh wat type of crowd is dis? then dey continued all their popular songs starting from slumberr up until generasiku..yeah da theme song for gol n gincu...n u tot its only for gurls..not!!!
da long awaited butter gurus are finally on stage!! crowd goes relly wild. da lineup: emmet, kadak, loco is back in action n finally loque!!! jambang mcm taliban bro...da whole perfomance was spectacular... loque seems gian on playin da guitar..magestic man... almost 2 hours of pure moshing n pogo-ing experience.. as usual emmet must crowd surf..and da prana brothers surf a few times too.its butters dude, u hv to surf!! but wat relly pisses all of us there was the zouk mgmt, grade b sounds (yela..usually dey play songs of non-rock tunes to deaf mutes plastic ppls). da mgmt demanded butters to go off stage in 10 mins(and it was only 9pm)damn! theres still 4/3 songs left to go.. after da crowd encore for a 5 mins, butter managed to give one farewell experience. mmg best!! after da show ended, we were told to leave, heck man, 6hours of standing. moshing, pogoing, we need a break la..so we juz sat at da lounge..suddenly a whistle was blown.da guards halau us all by whistles..ingatkan game bola tadi..so we have to bail la.. hang around outside, saw joe flizzow (waddahack he's doin here?)..butters seem a bit late to come out...so me n topek left da place with one of da best butter performance show ever..heck, all their show r great!!
