Yippeeee .. came in this morning and saw a package in my pigeon hole and knew what it was going to be. Finally received the the CDs i ordered from yesasia-vidoll monad and ayabie irodori. The CDs which i wasn't able to get my hands on when i was in HK during the release. Ironically, this website i got it off ships them from HK. That explains even though i have been to Hk like more than 5 times i still don't know where to get the stuff .
Thank goodness for internet shopping .. people who live out in whoop whoop are able to get access to these goods. See i'm supporting my favourite artists. I knew about these bands before seeing them live at the V-Rock festival last yr during my days in uni and after seeing them live for the first time I was impressed hence ot their latest albums. I even got ayabie's last indies DVD at the venue- totally worth the buy. I do wonder whether they know they have a fan from australia... haha... i know people give me the look when i tell them what type of music i'm into... i get the " it so doesn't look like your type of stuff" then the eye rolls.... people are so judgemental on they way you look and what you should be. Well too bad man, i like visual rock coz the music is very well composed ( that's my opinion of course) and its much more original to most western music. It;'s probably because the image of these band give off the head banging trash kinda look and school drop out etc, so those whom are followers of this are the same. That's so not true!! coz i'm not a drop out and i can assure you that!
I wonder if they will have this festival this year and wonder if i can go. Obviously i can't attend their lives which is coming up in the next month or so... coz of work commitments. Ummmm... then again i should save, no more holidays, i think i have pampered myself too much lately :P
I'm going to try and read their blogs properly from now on. It'll be a good way to improve my japanese. Aiming for JLPT level 2 this yr i keep telling myself.
Can't wait to get home and watch the DVDs ....
Gezz i wrote a lot today... my passion for music! Too bad i can't be a musician.. would love to pursure this path if i had the guts to take this risk in life. Its either make it or the highway... very competitive indeed.
