the weather was fine. the gig was good. buying a hardpack of fags for RM$4 was better.
but travelling out with 10 of your buddies, some of which you haven't seen in what felt like ages, just has to take the cake. God, i miss them. especially DzooL, NanA and FarinA. FarizwaN and YammiE were a really, really nice surprise addition. AbU and IsmU proved to be the best people to have senseless humour with. and then who else but my boys AchaK, Wan*G and ShahroM. i would have missed a brilliant day if i had chose to continue rolling in bed instead.
i think the only time i ever went to Larkin was when i was a wee-boy back when the Woodlands Checkpoint looked like a bloody post office. i can't even bloody remember if it was fucking Larkin, for crying out loud.
the gig was within walking distance at this (believe it or not) swimming pool off some long road that further led to..... i dunno..... Hell, maybe. the venue wasn't too bad. i reckon it's about the size of The Guiness Theatre. the turn out was pretty alright, considering u had to pay RM$12 to get in. but the lack of crowd response made it a little dull for NAZARK, i guess. then again, can't expect much when you're the 2nd band to play, can you? and so the boys did their thang.
a little different this time without Khai on the mic.....
.....and so, in his place, AbU screamed his lungs out, Wan*G jumped off the amps, AchaK was rolling on the floor, ShahroM didn't miss his timing throughout and DzooL broke the snare stand after smashing the drum set even before the end of the first song.
the boys did their job, alright.
after the gig we headed to have dinner and the rest of the evening led to more laughs and stupid jokes. even at the dinner table we'd still be at it. especially when it came to Wan*G. he'll be a Tekong boy later today, see. so out came the tease. sad to see him going away for 3 weeks, but i really hope he'll enjoy his time when he's there. and the rest of the night went was lost in merry-making......
but it would have been all the more spectacular if only Miss*DoLL had come along. it'd have given us the real bonding we needed...... to get closer. asked her a couple of times. she said she'd call. guess she wasn't interested. waited for her call the whole night even after i bumped into her...... with a fren. but she didn't even messaged.
if only.
God, i can fall asleep at a drop of a hat right now. my legs feel cramped, my back hurts and my eyes are nearly rolling out of its sockets. but it was all worth it. it was one of those days that you'd just wanna rewind right to the start and do it all over again. looking at the big picture, we didn't do anything much. we just went to a gig and had dinner. and it wasn't just because the gig went well, or that it's been a while since i went to JB...... but it was mostly because of the company of good old friends whom i haven't seen in ages.
it felt so damn good to start the day with lotsa smiles, mad laughter and random humour...... and to only stop when it was time to say goodbye.
suddenly it feels like there's some of May left still lingering around......
