First though,a short story on what the hell is a "siren", the middle word and how it started.ACTUALLY,no im going to make a LONG but INTRESTING (To me...) story instead! Go on,read,its going to be fun
It was an uhm....
Ah...
...NORMAL day lah on march,2006 or 2007? Details dont matter.It was 3 years ago during a normal march day.There were 2 people, Jeff and Enrico, whom we shall call Rico due to it being easier to type.
Rico and Jeff are the "originators" who thought of the band.
They gave the name "Siren" which was not your police ronda car going NeeNorNeeNor siren but it is based on a legendary creature which again im too lazy to explain, so wikipedia is your best friend.
Why they chose that name though, TOTALLY no idea.Go ask rico if you want =D .
Then of course, with a band comes great players.
They recruited 3 people, whom again I have no idea but I know that 1 of them dropped out for some unknow reason.So the band droped from 5 people, to 4.
But as usual, bands that are made when were 13 OR 14 NEVER (Almost never, sorry) do anything in the 1st year or so. They were no exception.*Bwahahahaha* (WTF Ian??)
So a year passed.They grew older.(NO SHIT RIGHT?) And also they signed up for a teacher's day concert! Of course without playing seriously for a year, they didn't make it, BUT their audiotionist said that they had potential.
*SUDDENLY RIGHT,GOT BRIGHT LIGHT COME DOWN FROM HEAVEN SHINE UPON THEM.THEY BECAME DELIRIOUS WOOHOO AND SHIT!!!*
*If you belive that get out of my blog, FREAAAAK.So scary.*
BACK to the story, they were encouraged but lazy and still didn't do anything about it.But they got balls you know, they signed up for the end year performances.AGAIN they didnt make it.
*Somewhere through here, I have no idea what happened.We shall fast forward the timeline to the next year.*
The other 2 remaining members left, reasons to myself unknown.Remaining in the NeeNor's were:
Rico
and
Jeff
Rico somehow through last year got to know Calvin a.k.a Babi Hutan Tan Chein Vin through me, and a penguin named Daniel Wong.Oh, im not making fun on Calvin,why is he called babi hutan though, ask him yourself again.Daniel though...Just looked like a penguin in a photo which we, actually no, I shot.(YES I GOT ALOT OF PRIDE.So what?Hahaha...)He just somehow got that Penguinish angle and so yalah.Its not that bad Dan,dont fret.
WEIH im so going off topic.
RICO took Daniel and Calvin and decided to make Lower Ground which was a half-assed effort.Though they did make Invert Apoy-Apo-Apy something la.Its a natural disaster thing, can't spell it for nuts.They made INVERT which did give them an experience but they also realised that they were better at doing covers rather than individual song writing.
So it is now early 2009.Im in college.And Siren seems to be picking up pace!(And im missing the damn action)
Luckily im having holidays and I can afford to hang-out with them.And...
...Thanks to the lack of using the com often, I have no idea how to put the picture up there, down here.
It's a Poster for SIREN'S FIRST GIG.Isn't that awesome?
Haha to you guys it might not mean much, but I practically went through the hardship of how siren had to go through to get into a gig.Rehearsels, calling people, it's part of my memory when I was still in DJ.The details are all in the picture/flyer thingy, however it not complete.
You have to call 016-3013993 on how to go there.Transportation is provided,but it's not free.But it's CHEAAAAAAP =) .
The dude's very friendly.If you didn't know,his name is IAN!! A.K.A the owner of this blog!
He also can be contacted by drift_major@hotmail.com . My msn.
I hope whoever reads this can attend the gig, it is a big thing for the band so DO YOUR PART TO HELP GROWING SUPERSTARS!! LoL they just might become famous and help you guys back hahaha, thanks everybody and goodnight.
Oh not goodnight yet, I need photographers!It'll be great if someone could help me with coverage.Transportaion, entrance fee and makan up to rm5 will be paid for since im funding them myself and im POOR so there is no budget given.
They will be playing their typical "Jap Screamo" stuff which I don't know and Slipknot songs...
NOW ONLY GOODNIGHT.
Goodnight!
