Bringing the roof down

Ever since I attend that hair-raising, hang on to the edge of your seat concert a few years back I have always wondered when will they bring the roof down. Back on Sunday evening, attended my Bro's band concert, the ever fame and popular XXXXX concert band with guest appearance from their sister band.

Yes, presentation of the piece were well executed perhaps the only fault was the endurance to keep the standard the same throughout the 4 pieces. 2nd half was as usual the fun-filled, creative performance of the Singapore equivalent of the percussion group Stomp. Overall, it was entertaining and a great way to unwind before heading back to studies or work. But still, going back to the bet with my buddy on whether they will bring the roof down. Well.. Good attempt.

Dinner was truly one to remember as it was the first time I have to seek cover from the torrential rain that poured. The scene of people carrying plates of satays and sting rays, yes STING RAY!!! in to lau pasat while trying to avoid getting drenched by the heavy downpour that followed after the trickle of rain drops. Somehow, I feel its my unit's "curse" where every mention of Stingray will be the equivalent of the Indian American rain dance. Haiz.. the fish needs water to survive.

Well, lau pasat is one place where you still get to experience eating at a truly street hawker lined up with smoke filled Satay stalls and touts moving around trying to sell you seafood. Wee..! Of course for those who are weight conscious, its nice to indulge yourself once in a while for such hawker fare but don't forget to hit the running tracks after that!

Auf Wiedersehen!
