First Catches

we are pleased to announce two bands that have signed up for the sheffield gig.

the first is a trio from nottingham university comprising qisti, mozek and kamal, who have performed at the nottingham malaysia night early this year.

the other is the murg masalam blues band.

they have been together (on and off, via the internet) for the past year. separated in three continents (north america, europe and asia), they hope to play a gig in KL in december of this year. and if the weather permits, they'd be coming to sheffield! check out their material here on i-bands.net.

UPDATE! another band into the fold. we now have wilkinson street's own nevermind the hazatsu from sheffield wanting in! keep 'em coming!

__________________________________

we have not formally decided on the rules and regulations of the gig as of yet. however, here are a few facts related to this gig:

• this is not a battle of the bands. the gig is to showcase your talents, so NO PRESSURE!
• we charge a fee for each band. in the past the fees for a UK gig organised by malaysians fell in the £25-30 ball park. so, we forecast that the fees would be within this range.
• you MAY play in more than one band. however, try not to have each band member change instruments just so you can have a new band! we know how difficult it is to get a drummer, for instance, and we may see the same drummer in several bands, but that is fair enough. life's too short to be for us to be that uptight.
• the sheffield gig is, at the moment, NOT affiliated with any malaysian student body in sheffield (until further notice).

spread the word.

come and play at the sheffield gig!
