<br /><br />so we got in to play our set at the phonograph earlier, right after magnolian, who i must add was just awesome. they were loud and epic, just like how i like my music. but anyway, there we were going into our the first song..the intro song...or "zouktro" as we would like to call it, when all of a sudden, the cops showed up! it was unbelievable! we were expecting the bass amp to blow, since we have already fried pedals, a guitar amp and a snare drum...or something to that extent. so to see the cops telling us to stop because we were deemed as loud by the neighbours was just quite amazing. and we weren't freaking out about it, neither were we angry. we just looked at each other and started smiling and i just said out loud "what a fitting end to an amazing tour!". and the crowd started clapping and the cops were just there trying to figure out who we were and what time were we supposed to end. or something like that. i mean, i didn't really know what went down. so about ten to fifteen minutes went by, and we were just waiting it out to see what the management was going to say. they gave us the green light to carry on but only if we played a softer set. so we did. and then for the last song, we decided to play at our normal volumes and rock out, since this is after all our last stop before heading back to singapore, when the management stopped us again. and so we stopped. and again, we weren't freaking out about it, neither were we angry....we just said thank you to the crowd for staying and that we will be back the next time to complete the damage. <br /><br />so that's that. it was a brilliant night and none of this would be possible without our lovely friends from hong kong, nic and ephraim from love song, the people from phonograph, who did their very best to let us carry on and everyone who took the time to drop by to show their love. we didn't manage to give you our hundred and ten percent but you can be sure that we will be back the next time we have the chance. thank you!<br /><br />one more day in hong kong! then it's back to singapore!<br /><br />love,<br />the plague for i am david sparkleI Am David Sparklehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13758405576205216881noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4833987771164081862.post-62296759984172366922009-03-31T19:06:00.000-07:002009-03-31T19:14:16.999-07:00on like donkey kongyowza.<br /><br />the band has just reached hong kong...and as a matter of fact, i am now at the airport typing this. gonna take a cab in a while to the place where we will be calling home for the next four days before flying back to singapore. <br /><br />the 16 hour flight from los angeles to hong kong is no joke and you can imagine how tired we all are. so i guess the plan for today is to chill and get our rest before tomorrow's show. FYI, we will be playing at the this place called the phonograph, which is over at tsim sha tsui around nine i think. so drop by if you happen to be around area. <br /><br />the next update will probably be when we are back in singapore. so till then!<br /><br />sparkle.I Am David Sparklehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13758405576205216881noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4833987771164081862.post-22577861581471671162009-03-25T22:19:00.001-07:002009-03-25T22:45:23.868-07:00tomorrow's partieshello world.<br /><br />okay. i know i mentioned in the previous post that the next update will have pictures of our south by southwest (mis)adventures but i didn't get any on my camera. i mean, i got plenty of pictures of us around town and hanging around but nothing of us on stage. well there is one, and that picture can be found on our myspace blog <a href="http://blogs.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=blog.view&friendId=126858511&blogId=478769236">here</a>!<br /><br />and here is a video of us and Dr Jay fooling around. haha!<br /><object height="344" width="425"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/IAnL_hjcMXk&hl=en&fs=1"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/IAnL_hjcMXk&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" height="344" width="425"></embed></object><br /><br /><span style="font-style:italic;">"I Am David Sparkle are kind of what SXSW is all about, or what I realized it should be about: seeing bands you've never heard of and then, subsequently if you're lucky, really enjoying them.

brilliant bands at route 196. we'll be playing at saguijo later tonight and at magnet high street tomorrow, so we are pretty pysched about that. in the meantime, coffee and a game of ping pong are in

The shot was taken at Blackmore Drive I think, some where in the sparse woods, opposite a big field with flying R/C planes. A big thank you to Nick OMG, Esther and Ke Wei, for coming all the way and braving the make up and costumes. Really really really appreciate it. Ak has some pix taken of the afternoon shoots, hopefully it'd be up soon.<br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">We then went to Bras Basah to get some guitar stuff and dinner at the chicken rice joint opposite Mos Burger with the documentary boys. Liang Seah or something. Headed down to Hua Yi Secondary at Depot Rd for the dance segment of the video. The dance scene was taken in the school hall and I just had to document this with the camera in my phone because we didn't have our cameras with us. Also managed to capture some of the dance in video, so I might just upload that later. We also had a little Tour Of Duty of the school, since it's been abandoned and stuff. No shots of that tour though. Heard some paranormal stories from Rozali, the guy in charge of the camera for the shoot, and we just chilled around. It was a good day.<br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Hope Nic's free today, so I could finish my bit for Ninja Death.
