Typecast was brought by Gegey Music whom managed to brought in few international acts last year. I believe Typecast is a big name back in Phillipines. They opened for Saosin Live in Manila early this year and had been to Singapore several times. With this first appearance in Malaysia, it was a good opportunity for Typecast to promote their new coming album, How Your Influence Betrays You, to Malaysian crowd. Hopefully this will not their last visit to Malaysia.

The events was supported by few of biggest local bands and a band from Singapore. The event opened by This Sunday, Massacre Conspiracy, The Padangs, Incarnation, A Vacant Affair and Love Me Butch.

After the stage had been rock out by six band, Typecast took the stage. and  with a substituted bassist. I am familiar with only few songs from their last album although i’ve been listening to them for last two years. Maybe i’ve been listening to their only famous set list. Pity me. Haha. Despite the low crowd that night, they still rocking out the venue, Dragonfly Club. They end the show with a collaboration with Matt from A Vacant Affair. No encore that night but it was an awesome introductory for the band in Malaysia. The venue was good, the band was awesome, but the crowd, not the best i think.

With more less 200 turnout that day, Malaysian music fans still need to be introduce to this band. But this visit will be a benchmark to future Typecast listener. Do come again Typecast! Thanks Gegey for bringing them for the 1st time to Malaysia.

The second edition of Kuala Lumpur Design Week (KLDW) were held from 1st to 16th May of 2010. There’s a few additional new venues for this year as well as additional exhibitions this year. But unfortunately, i only manage to squeeze my time to visit  Capsquare only although i’ve been craving to visit exhibition in National Art Gallery and Gallery Petronas.

Although i didn’t make it to others venue, i believe this year KLDW was a good eye opener for local designer and future designer. Till next year!

It’s good to try new things. After few session of kids portrait, i just keep wanting more. So, for the past few weeks, sibuk promote untuk shoot mother’s day portrait through facebook and at last kak Anna interested to be part of it. Thanks kak Anna and her daughter, Dina.  So, last sunday we did the photo session. The day was perfect, good light, good location and great new friends. =) So, here are some of  the photos.

Dina was a bit malu-malu at first, although she know how to pose. Kalau Dina dah sampai mood nak pose tu, sangat photogenic and fast. So,  i have to be quick with my camera. hehe. Thanks pada kak Anna sebab bawa props and makanan. It did bring out the lovely morning with those props, and perut pun senang hati. hehe

I did have fun shooting kak Anna and Dina. Thanks juga pada Aleng and Jojet yang sama-sama have fun hari tu. Great time spend! =) Anyone else up for a lovely portrait? hehe
