Debut of The Carbrians.

I love music. And i love people who can make music. And i've long had this secret wish to be able to play a musical instrument. [it's almost on the very top of my list of secret wishes which in no particular order include the likes of learning how to swim without sinking to the bottom of the pool, speaking an exotic language fluently, and cooking eatable food; yes "EATABLE" not edible.]

But unfortunately for me, i am as skilled at music as i am at cooking. And you'll probably believe how 'great' i am at either one once you've had the pleasure of tasting my delightful chicken rice ala Izzy~ [the first time i made that particular dish, i was almost killed by my siblings who weren't very keen on me torturing their soft palates.]

But anyway, this entry has nothing to do with my lack of culinary skills nor my under-developed musical talents. What i really had in mind when i started talking about music was 'The Carbrians'. [the girls wanted to call it 'Band Udara' but i pretty much preferred 'The Carbrians'.]

I'm sure you can guess by our name what kind of band we are.
[Band Udara = Airband. D'ohhh!] And yes, airbanding isn't as easy as people make it sound. And it sure ain't as easy as i had initially thought. You've got to have at least SOME basic knowledge of music to know what the heck you're imitating. Then comes the head-bangin' and hard-playing practice.

Tho i can't say the whole thing doesn't have its perks. For starters, I get to partially realize my dream of playing in a band. But more importantly than that, being the lead guitarist (i like the sound of that =P) with a couple of solo parts, i couldn't help but be helplessly abundant in the cool-ness department. I was just oozing with greatness. Hahahaha.... I know I'm singing my own praises but hey, this is MY blog. I can very well write whatever i want. *wink wink*

The others weren't too shabby either. In fact, they were pretty impressive. Anie on drums was just inspirational. Emy (bass) was pretty much the same. Te'ah could have very well be a real singer with her moves and the multi-talented Haz... (LOL).... i cant even begin to describe.

I would have loved to attach a video copy of our 'gig' and 'album cover' to this entry but unfortunately for you sad people out there, it's only for the eyes of a select few. So, just trust my words on this, The Carbrians is a force to be reckoned with.
