What New Things We Experienced in SOM


我們來看看, 這次Jrock No Tamashii @ SOM 我們嘗試了什麼新東西。首先呢, 這麼大的舞台我們還是第一次爬過。有一定的興奮, Kim也在這裡看到了 "魂" (笑)。再來是, 再這麼炎熱的中午做Sound Check。這種熱呢, 不是一般的熱。熱到Ving 的POD的金屬握把都燙手。熱到根本不能赤腳在舞台上走。再來呢, 這個經典。是第一次看過這麼笨的sound-man。我們sound check的時候, 吉他手需要用到延長電線來安裝他們的聲效器, 就向他們要.。他們會答: Kita takde lah , Kenapa u orang tak bawah sendiri keh ?? 當場鴉雀無聲....真的很想問他: eh ~ u hari pertama kerja kah ? 我從來沒聽過做舞台的業者沒有準備延長線的。這次第一次聽呢~ 還好,最後我不知道他們從那裡挖了出來。再來呢..第一次試過我這麼多圈外的朋友來看我的演出, 很開心! 再來就是其他團員了,平時最愛美的Meo, 這次的打扮竟然是最普通的。還有平時連短袖都少穿的Kim(原因是他很介意他的手很瘦)這次經過我們的說服, 他突破自己了!! 他穿背心上場呢!! 再來是....Ivan以新髮型上場, 他這個頭髮超像神木與瞳的賴明偉。他從前一晚開始就被人叫他"神木與瞳!! 神木與瞳!!",直到當天表演前化妝的時候他終於爆發了: 阿阿阿!!!夠了!! 別再叫我神木與瞳了!!!!!!! (爆笑) 再來是我們第一次以ALL ORIGINAL出場, 雖然本來有5首, 其中一首趕不及, 剩下4首, 被主辦當局剪了一首就剩下3首(泣)。最後, 我也嘗試過了在情不自禁的情況下丟麥克風。整體上來說, 我們一半是為了這個活動, 另一半為了自己, 把2首新歌給赶出來了。雖然因某些狀況(請參考前一張稿)而沒辦法好好的在舞台上演出, 但至少我們為我們的努力感到成就感。回家的時候Kim說:大家加油! 繼續寫很多很多的好歌曲出來。另外, 真的很感謝各位支持我們的朋友。我們在SOM前開會說過: 是時候有一張CD了~ 我們也同時的贊同的說在我們沒有EP之前我們不接任何演出活動。現在開始我們會慢慢的進行錄音。我想下次上場的時候, 就是我們開始賣EP的時候了. 请大家期待吧~!

Okay, Now let’s see what we have experienced in Jrock No Tamashi @ SOM. Firstly, this is the first time we climbed up to such a big stage. It’s very excited . Kim saw his “tamashii” there. And also , this is the first time we do sound check under the afternoon hot sun, the heat is abnormal, Ving even can’t hold his POD’s handle with bare hand and it even can’t walk with bareleg on the stage. The next is a GREAT POINT . It’s the first time I met a most stupidest sound man. During guitarist is setting up, they asked the sound man for extension cord cause they needs that to connect their effecter to the amp. The sound man reply : Eh , We don’t have that !Why you guys never bring your own extension cord. We kept quite after we got his stupid reply. I never knows a performer guitarist have to bring his own extension cord for a show. This suppose to be prepare by a backline. Thought to ask him : hey ~ are u first day on job ?? At last, luckily he got 2 for us. I don’t know where he got it . Next things is , this is the first time I experienced so many of my friends came for my performance who was not in this Jrock community, I feel glad about that. Next one is about others band member. Usually Meo is the guy who take care of his image the most, but this time his outlook is most simple. Beside that, Kim don’t wear even short sleeve T-shirt ,(the reason is , he always mind about his skinny arm) but this time he went on stage with a sleeve-less singlet . Now is Ivan, He went on stage with a new hair style . this hair style of him looks so much similar to the Taiwan single “Shen Mu Yu Tong” . Since the day before event , he being called as “Shen Mu Yu Tong !! Shen Mu Yu Tong” , until the day of event , He finally get mad and shouted : Please Stop It !! don’t call me that ever again !!! This is the first time we go on stage with ALL ORIGINAL , Though we have 5 songs , but 1 songs we can’t manage to complete, and 1 cut by the organizer due to timing problem. At last , I tried throw the mic in a uncontrollable condition. Overall, behalf of we working hard for this event , and behalf of we working hard for ourself, we did manage to completed 2 songs in this few rushing weeks. Though we can’t perform well on stage due to the sound setting was totally different to the setting during our sound check time, but atleast we proud for our effort. Kim said to me before he go home : Lets put more effort to compose more good music!! I really want to thanks to all my supporter friends for coming for us. We had a meeting before this event , we said : it’s a timing to make a original CD now. And all of us agreed that we will not play any gigs until we get our 1st original EP. From now, we will start to work on recording. I think the next time u guys see me on stage, we will sell our EP at the same time. Please wait for it . ^_^

不同場地,不同音響,不同的sound man,都會有不同的狀況出現,還是那一句,以經驗來克服問題。
沒經驗,就讓問題來累集成經驗。

我覺得“浪”樂隊對這一方面控製的很好,
不同場地和音響都能調出好的音色,
如有機會不彷請教他們~

p/s: when is the Ep release date?

Need help just lemme know lar... Kekekeke

NoizyHouse said...

Actually I wonder the drum set 2nd tom tom is it whack until pecah liao? and the kick drum also...distorted...
I wonder why the sound crew didnt go fix the problem...

However, i would says....the best performance in overall sound balancing is John Mistress. They are tight and the sound produce just nice... So,Do gain more stage experience...Keep it up Drako' Zen~!

呜呜…你们口中的大头妹 said...

台上的乐手本就应该准备好自己的器材家伙,自己没准备还要怪sound man?离专业路还远哦。。

ejun85 said...

那上面的那个高手的看法是不是全部都要带自己的器材去呢?如果是的话我们随便找个地方都可以开场了~如果是的话地方一定要很大咯,因为你要放一个band最少有5个喇叭,有10队band就有50个喇叭,哇!!!!何其壮观啊,真係,不知道的人以为有东西卖喔,哈哈哈

我想问问sound man对你来说是一种装饰吗?拿来擺的吗?如果sound man不会调音叫什么sound man呢?或者你要我们怎样准备呢?我们做乐手的是不是要台上一边sound check一边做sound man的东西呢?如果是的话我觉得乐手很强囖~

如果我知道你是谁的话而我又认识你我会和你说:不要玩啦,好不好?
如果我不认识你的话我会说:你离做人还有很远的路喔~~~~

funikotony said...

哈哈,嗯……有點讓我更懷疑……
我的部落格最近也被不知名人士轟炸,是不是同樣一個人呢?好無聊……(=.=")

Яeiki said...

匿名先生, 您好~

謝謝您的留言~
我想请問說: 您到外頭去參加別人舉辦的gigs的時候,
你會帶您自己的Extension cord嘛?
或者是mic stand之類的東西~?
如果你會帶這些的話,
贈您一句話:你白痴呀!
有一般常識的人都知道,這些都是做backline舞台或音響的人準備的吧?

另外想問你:
请問當時你在現場嘛? 請問你了解情況嘛?

匿名兄,說話有什麼得罪请多多包含~

P/s: 我是業餘樂團, 也沒自稱過是專業.

找砸的我們不歡迎, 有空再來坐坐交流交流以下~

Have a nice day.
