get spotted totally rocked.
NJ Talentine 2006. A night to remember.
grey by day, explosive in action by night. memories to add to alvin’s archive. the powerhouse ecstatic christine next to me offering all the support in the world the performers need. n jason scandalling wif his unstraight inclinations. but um lets not go there. this is not porn site.
TALENTINE WAS A ROCKER MAN!!!! uber cool. performances that really stole the night were Matchsticks, Stickly Wigglies (for their uber fun n laughs), SOMA, n finally, the hot hot fav, New Crew on the Block. n there was this interval where the jazz duo gave it their all on the guitar n piano. they all played, danced n crooned like theres no tommorrow, like they’ve been doing this their entire lives, like theres no limit to the music experience.
that connection wif the audience. the energy they created was amazing. sublime. fantastic. tonight u guys rule man. to all u pple out there, n cj, really appreciate that xtra effort, going that xtra mile to bring vitality to the greyness of life. thanx to u, i’ll never see nj in the same light again. n i bet everyone else who went will remember talentine 06 for many many many yrs to come. walking out of the lt n on the way to the back gate n bus-stop wif qing lun, everybody shared THAT experience. we basked in a somatic high. u go; this is not the reserved, politically correct nj i’ve witnessed. but wad the heck. i never for a moment regretted buying that seemingly nondescript yellow ticket from cj.
i remember qing lun, as usual, smiling n nodding away, just b4 we parted to go home, “see ya on monday haha.”
cya on monday. for me it’ll b back to that grey, but not not already so grey place i call njc.
