Sneak preview: New line-up

^ Teringat lagu Gersang: Akan ku simpan.. Kenangan cinta kita-ha-ha..
Yang tak akan terpadam.. Selamanya..

Got a bit of bad news and good news here.

Most of the time I'll go with good news first, but this time around I have to tell the bad news first before the good news so that my story flow. Haven't written a story that flows well for a long time now.. So that's prolly why I didn't win that award stuff.. huhu..

Enuf about me! It's about the band.

So bad news: Sham the drummer, or better known as Sham Bulu, has left Superfriends.

As reported through Band Superfriends' MySpace site, the band will be leaving for Swing, Kuantan at the end of this month and move on to Pure Bar, Melaka after that.

Not able to travel, the hard-hitter Sham Bulu has decided to be the wind beneath Superfriends' wings and let them (as sang by Bette Midler)..

.. fly... fly... fly away! Ve vill miss his polite conversations and Professor Serba Tau humour...

Having parted on a high note, let's get on with the next piece of news.

The good news: After a lot of searching, the band gets Sham Headhunter to rejoin Superfriends. Hence the "new face" behind the cymbal you guys has been seeing at Titanium since a week ago.

To fill the void left by Sham Bulu, Sham Headhunter has been roped in to reassume his previous position as drummer. Previously Sham Headhunter is known for his accurate skills and unique grooves, so you can expect good stuff coming out from him.

Superfriends note that his playing has evolved a lot. The last time I heard him play with Superfriends (eons ago!) Sham Headhunter is supercool especially when playing stuff from No Doubt and rock rocks.

Can't wait to hear him playing the Sounan song from Tokyo Jihen!

Practice, practice

The band is busy practising almost everyday now. Heard their next gig will be in a city in the East Coast, but I hope they'll get a contract in KL instead.

I've been busy trying to load their video on YouTube and link em back here, but so far my computer proved to be unworthy of such cause. Damn slow la wey!

In any case I've also not had the chance to see them in Titanium. Sobs! It is kinda daunting for me to go to these new, unfamiliar club. I wish they're playing at places I am more familiar with, hey even Planet Hollywood (a club with great food, but sometimes sucky service) would do!

(See old photo above hehehehe)

But if you have similar anxieties as I do, remember Superfriends will always greet ya with a smile.
