Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Started off in 84-86 as being influenced by Depeche Mode. Died off in 1986 as a result of full concentration to music. Went to served the armed forces for 12 years as a regular officer in the intel division. Back on civvies on end 2002. Played in 3 pubs :
AMAS Feb 2004 - November 2004
X-Zone Feb 2004 - November 2004
Vivo December 2004 - May 2005
Earns approximately S$7,000 or approximately US$4200 a month excluding tips.
But the more we earn, the more we spend right? LOL!
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
Yes, I play live. For a period of early 2004 and 3/4 of 2005 I played live 2-3 piece. With such a short period of exposure, it had given me a very good experience working with the older generation as well as the yuppies towards their desired genre of music.

Anything else?
Full band:
To those who had me before in a full band or maybe thought I was a freeloader in a band, is WHY?!
Even if you dissed me aside, at least just send me a 5cents SMS to tell me I'm too good for you. HAH!
3 piece band:
Look, I play professinally so pay me professionally. If you pay peanuts, you will get a big humongous gorilla instead.
Overall: I get paid to for every set for every night and not for per night only. So please dig deep in your pockets when you need to recruit me in your band.
Because I have a playlist of 5000 songs that I could just pick one and play anytime I wish?
Because I am what I am and am not being able to bend to what ever you guys think?
