Mike's place - August 2006 ?

all acoustic..

Mike, the SA guy is really a cool bloke we know. This was an awesome night. A private concert at Albion for a party at his place ... that was us playing without our drummer :( too bad we can't bring all of our stuffs there... :D

pics for this event are blurry.. but I saved an unusual one (what we did after playing guitars):



[ahem !!!... not so unusual joel roaring... and I'm playing for the second time in my life 'that' game.. whatever its name..]

2006 - January @ Riverwiew

Our friend Yashil organised this one and invited a lot of bands including ours. We hadn't played for a while and we had been missing 'live' action. It went fine this time, except for our bass player who was busy. He got replaced by our guitar player Nicolas :) and Dorian ( a friend ) was playing guitar. Our complaints are the same every time: why does sound have to be that bad? but it was better than most of our rock adventures...


[looking everywhere except at the audience]

our playlist:
- enter sandman (metallica)
- always with me (satriani)
- muscle museum (muse)
- hysteria (muse)


[roar joel !!! the audience is listening]

2005 - ...

loads happened in 2005... I feel so guilty not to have any pictures, dates of events, and videos... I'm trying hard to find them...

our band played live on radio-one on a Thursday night in Patrice's show; we played at Saints (an event to forget - the vodka night and the broken string); I think we played acoustic at jazzi on the same year (or was it 2006?), I just can't remember...

roughly here is our playlist for 2005: under the bridge, the man who sold the world, time after time, sunburn, muscle museum, new born, hysteria, nothing else matters, trouble, californication, parallel universe, be yourself, one last breath, lullaby...

9th May 2004



a few months later... motivated again.

this time we were at College du St.Esprit (a familiar place to some of us in our band) . Nicolas and I busy tuning our guitars. This time we had a different audience; it was a rock concert.

Our playlist: ( again not too sure about this, I'm waiting for other band members to actually visit the blog -_-" and post comments)
  • Under the bridge - Red Hot Chili Peppers
  • Muscle Museum - Muse
  • My Own Prison - Creed
  • Ana's Song - Silverchair
  • Hysteria - Muse
  • Nothing else matters - Metallica



Nicolas playing the bass line exceptionally on this song ;) ... That was a good show, motivating everyone of us to continue our rock adventure...

Our first concert... (2004 - not too sure which month)



That was our first night out! dcdm business school student party (crap party and badly organized in my opinion). The audience was around us and not the least interested in any of the bands that played on that night, except for the last band who sang out of tune on a Bob Marley song (mediocre but applauded .. :( .. ). As far as I can remember here was our playlist:
  • Godfather theme
  • Under the bridge - Red Hot Chili Peppers
  • Time after time - Cindy Lauper (rock version - lol)
  • Stay - U2
  • Patience - Guns n' Roses


Kill the guy with the blue shirt!!!
I wonder why in Mauritius, a lot of people call themselves sound engineers, but this one was one of the worst we've had so far. A salsa band was playing before us and their sound was perfect. There is something people hate about rock on this island. The m#$f$#cker with the blue shirt just lowered the volume on the guitars as soon as he heard some distortion, meaning that I couldn't hear my guitar at all during the whole show, except for the acoustic part. What the f#$ with that guy...
