The SHOW DAY

I got out of bed and thought... Alright today is show day, SOUND CHECK at 10:30 am. So we got our stuff and left right on schedule to KIM SHA BEACH.


When we got there the SOUND 2000 guys were still working on the stage and told us to get back at 11:30. And if there is one thing I hate, is waiting... So we went to get some breakfast withwe  good friends to keep us company


The technical problems

When we got on the stage it was HOT! And while we were setting up, VOOOOOOM the generator died. So we then had had chill and wait for the guys to fix that. In the end everything got taken care of and we soundchecked and went back to the hotel to rest and get focused.


The SHOW

Before we started we gave our winners of the Treasure Hunt their prizes and then after the introduction from G Money, we started. It was great, I had some problems with my amplifier but we gave it our all, and the crowd reacted like never before.


With "Tokin on your Love" people were singing along and I saw the whole front closing their eyes and sinking into the music. With "These Days" people were dancing and hopping around on "da riddem" and we blasted everyone away with "Dirty South" and "Livin EZ".




I was playing for my life on the sublime cover "Santeria" and rocked that solo BOY! heheh And Jazzy suprised her home island with her performance covering the song "Hide Away".


The AfterMath

People's responses the next day were amazing, I was sitting on the beach eating something with Ben (our drummer)) and a dude named DODO told us that he thought the show was about his life. Every song he heard he could relate and mirror to his own life.. 





And that is in short one of the best compliments a band or artist could recieve. It seems like everywhere we went since, People are complimenting us on our show on Kim Sha Beach.
