Frappin' in Melaka

Starbucks Music Series:
(Starbucks Melaka Opening Ceremony)

Venue: Starbucks Mahkota Parade
Date: 5th February 2005
Time: 6pm to 8pm
Performers: Fallen Leaves, Bed Sheet Wonders, Broken Scar

Yes... KLUE and Starbucks have done it again! They're bringing good music to the people who like sipping expensive coffee while surfing online on their laptops wirelessly. If you have no idea what I'm talking about... then head on over to Melaka this weekend!

We promise you that it'll be a performance to remember. For one, I won't be there to sing and flick my long hair around. Philip and Michael will be taking over singing duties. Secondly, we'll be joined by Sue from Her Reverie. We'll be doing some of her songs as well. Don't you just love collaborations?! I do!

The gig is called the Starbucks Music Series at Starbucks Mahkota Parade. Apparently, this gig is celebrating the opening of the first Starbucks outlet in Melaka. Hooray for globalization and cultural imperialism! What happened to hanging out at our good ol' kopitiams? Where coffee didn't cost the same as a scoop of Haagen Daz ice-cream and old men sit and chat about the degradation of our society. I better not say too much... or else they'd probably cancel our slot. Oh by the way, we still haven't gotten our Starbucks vouchers from our last performances at their outlets. If you know someone who works in management, please let them know.

Everyone... have a weekend roadtrip down to Melaka. There's no better time to do it! Below is a photograph taken with my trusty Canon Powershot G2 a few months ago of one of the spots you can visit while you're there. Melaka is a beautiful place and one of my favourites in Malaysia. The food is yummy too. The boys and Sue will treat you to dinner.
