We started working at Golden Gate Pub & Restaurant on Monday, 1st September 2008.
It was still a public holiday, replacement for Merdeka Day which falls on Sunday.
And it is also the 1st day of Ramadhan.
Our working time at
3 sets per night and 5 times a week.
There would be no band on Saturday and Sunday.
Yippee...
1st night in the Pub went well. There are 6 tables occupied. The crowd mainly are Chinese.
We were still adjusting ourselves with sequencer music. Usually we played with live drums and live bass, the sounds are full, but with sequencer, hmmm... we'll get used to it, and we hope it'll be soon.
By 11:30pm, the crowd started to become lesser and lesser. 12 midnight, we finished and we hope the next day, which is 2nd September, 2008, would be better.
Today, 2nd Sept, Tuesday was better than Monday. When we walked in the pub at 8:45pm, it was full house. Most are Chinese man. They were all talking loud. Drinking booze. Talking very loud. We started at 5 minutes past 9pm. Sang some fast songs but people started to send requests and most of the songs they requested are slow and malay songs.
By the time we did our 3rd set, the crowd started to left the place. So we did slow songs till the end.
Today the sound is better than our 1st night.
The crowd was very responsive.
We can even chit-chat on the stage while singing. Hehehe....
