Meanwhile, check out some other collaborations I have made with Japanese students:

YUI - Laugh away



Director + Cinematographer - あかりん (Love her Kansai dialect)
Vocal - チーちゃん (Korean who speaks fantastic English and Japanese)
Guitar, Backup Vocal - じょーじ (he can play Oshio Kotaro)
Guitar, Vocal - Teo

I wonder why I decided to sing most of the song hmm...It was fun though.


YUI - I remember you



Director + Cinematographer - あかりん
Vocal - わかな
Guitar - Teo

I like this video. It was recorded during our final gathering and we decided to perform like 4 hours before the gathering. Rehearsed twice and tadaa~ I couldn't hold F chord properly during the bridge part because I was so used to playing with my red Tele *excuses*

Samick is a sweet guitar brand.


Lastly, thank you for participating YL Collaboration 3, after I have relocate myself I'll come up with the ultimate plan to make sure that our CD and stuff reaches YUI.


PS:I have climbed Mount Fuji as well. It was a super torturing experience.

Album: 9mm Parabellum Bullet - VAMPIRE

For the past two weeks, I had one of the happiest moment in my life.


Final studio practice. Our 'band' technically has 20 members haha.

In one day, I got to play 'Les Paul', 'Fender bass' (the cute blue one above),



And posed with real PRS. Sweet guitar. The guitar strings and the neck are practically stick to each other. Now I understand why people can play barre chords non stop, thanks to such setting.



Out of 5 songs in our band, I participated in three songs:

1. Chatmonchy - Hana no yume (Guitar)
2. flumpool - Over the rain (Bass)
3. YUI - feel my soul (Guitar)

My first ever and final live in Japan *sad*, I'm gonna miss my band (わでぃバンド), regret for not taking group pictures with them, didn't record my own performance =/

But it was very very fun, completely different from usual gatherings in student centre, which would be something like this:



YUI - SUMMER SONG ～YUI Acoustic Version～

Director + Cinematographer - えりちゃん
Piano, Vocal - みさき (second collabo with her)
Guitar, Vocal - りょう (he can play DEPAPEPE)
Guitar - Teo

Basically I was just sitting there and played simple chords haha. This was the day after the newcomers' live, we didn't have much time to do rehearsal. This week somehow I've got to perform 4 YUI songs, luckily I've know how to play all of them before I came to Japan, if not I'm gonna screw up classes big time.

YL Collaboration 3 has been postponed to July 14, I'm still waiting for your entries!!

I can totally understand why YUI wrote songs specifically for live performances now, certain songs are fun when played in lives. I think I got a ticket to ROCK IN JAPAN FES 2009, I already paid for the ticket but I still don't get any confirmation email, weird.

27 days till I'm back to Malaysia.
