I dropped by Forum to check out Glow 2…
I was there at about 2PM and many people were there already. Everyone seems to be well dressed for it. I was dressed in shorts and slippers. How awkward.
Hayden’s been very busy. He’s been giving out interview to all sorts of media, i.e. JUICE magazine, FHM magazine, Channel V and so on. He’s a super star now! hehe
Here’s a sneak preview of the place. See you guys there tonight!

Mr & Mrs. Teh
Congratulation to Uncle Maverick and Aunty Jetski!
They finally got married. Their wedding kick starts the wedding marathon that we will go through on our lives. Soon one by one, our friends will get married.
Uncle Maverick is one of Malaysia’s most veteran and well known DJ. He broke the Guinness Book of Record’s longest non stop DJ’ing 2 years ago.
Uncle Maverick
Maverick & Jessie
The wedding was held at Spring Valley restaurant in Mid Valley. Even though our invitation card says that the dinner will start a 6PM, most of the people came about 7 something. Pfft. Malaysians.
Many of us speculated that techno music or hard trance will be played during his wedding. Unfortunately, there were none. More than half of the restaurant was filled with middle aged relatives of Maverick and Jessie. However, they played a track specially mixed by Maverick for his wedding. Soon we’ll see Maverick’s Wedding – OST (Sound Track) in pasar malam.
Lynnzter, Sharon & Sui Lin
The food was great even though no shark fin was served. Although Maverick is an angler, he does not eat shark fins. Apparently his hobby is to catch fish and let them off after that.
Initially we were famished. Sow and Ben were holding their chopsticks like they were about to go to war. However, the food disappeared in a very slow rate. We thought that it will be gone within seconds.
Ben, Sow & I
Sharon, Ivan, Kelynn, Lynnzter, Sow, Ben, Kei Shi, Sui Lin and I sat on the same table (table no 23). Cris, Florence and Doreen sat on the next table due to lack of space. Everyone was well dressed for this event.
Kelynn, Ivan & Keishi
Table no 23 + next table 😀
After couple of dishes, we had a short champagne tower thingie. Then we proceeded with the traditional ‘yamseng’ screams. As a tradition, the groom has to walk to each table to drink. Together with it, the traditional yamseng scream will be performed. Although we were slightly outnumbered by other tables, we had one of the loudest screams. Maverick had couple of right hand men to support him i.e. to drink for him.
Ben: During my wedding, I’ll get Sow, Melvin and Umeng to be my right hand man. But I’m afraid that they will all die one by one before the night ends!
Maverick lasted through the night. He kissed all of us on the cheek before we left.
I remember last time during one of my friends’ wedding, many people had to carry him back to the car at the end of the night. I think he was drowning his sorrows cause he had to marry his girlfriend after she got pregnant.
Many congratulations to Uncle Maverick and Aunty Jetski aka Mr. and Mrs. Teh. Hope you guys will have babies soon. Loads of them of course!
Brief review on upcoming nightlife events in Malaysia
Recently, 2 events were going head to head. They are Glow 2 and Lumi-Nation.
Lumi-Nation ft. Scott Alert & Jeremy K @ Atmosphere
Fri 01 Jul
TwelveSI, 12 Jln. Sultan Ismail, KL. T: 2145 9198
For Sydney-siders the Hard Kandy name may not be instantly familiar, but talk to any clubber from Melbourne who is serious about their hard dance and the name will illicit smiles galore. On Hard Kandy Episode 3, Scott Alert shares mixing duties with fellow resident Jeremy K, each DJ taking care of a disc, combining hard dance and hard trance just the way you like it. The duo turns up the tempo and hits the breaks on mild mannered tunes and shows Atmosphere a grittier and tougher tip.
9pm. RM40 bef. 12mn, RM45 aft., pre-sale RM35, inc. 1 drink. For info, log onto www.twelvesi.com.my.
However, there were rumours that the event has been cancelled. But, a realible source told me that it has been postponed INDEFINITELY!!
[UPDATE]
W00T!! cant wait to go!
But the odds are that it’s gonna be a sausage party again! (>.<)
Salem Revelation 2005
There’s a rumour flying around that Salem will be organizing a rave @ one of the beaches of Malaysia.
According to my little kukubird, Tye Lim…
Start: Aug 20, ’05 (Evening)
End : Aug 21, ’05
Location: some beach somewhere go figure (its confirmed but i’ll let ya guess for now)
DJ’s confirmed so far (Main Room)
– Scot Project ( never heard of him?…you gotta be kidding man its Scottie )
– Johan Gielan ( if you dunno who he is you need to get out more )
– Mijk Van Dyk ( no not Paul’s brother )
– Marcus Schulz ( achtung baby )
– more to be announced
I don’t really care about the Second Room (Progressive Trance) but I will post it up when I get it.
also featuring VJ’s – Vision Impossible (UK)
watch this space for future updates http://jeffzy.multiply.com/
However, the government of Malaysia has recently passed Control of Tobacco Product Regulations 2004 that forbids tobacco companies to advertise in any events or sponsor any events. I wonder how Salem is able to bypass such law.
Damn….my drawing sucks……
Melbourne Shuffle Competition Finals

Wei Chen’s Birthday 2005
Happy Birthday to Wei Chen & Sharon who coindentally share the same birthday 😀
We bombarded Wei Chen (pronounced Wei Chen, NOT WHEEL CHAIR. LOL!!!) @ Finnegan’s. I was surprised to see my old time favourite, Snack Bite Black on the menu. I immediately ordered it and was followed by Sow, Wei Chen and Ivan.
Apparent there were 2 types of Snake Bite Black at Finnegan’s menu, one called Real and another one Softie Snake Bite Black. The price difference is about RM10. I was lucky to have the Softie Snake Bite Black as it was exactly like the one I used to have in England. However, Sow, Ivan and WC got the real Snake Bite Black which tasted really bad as it has a strong peppermint smell. It tasted like the Around the World Cocktail which is one shitty drink.
We bought Wei Chen a flaming Lamborghini as well. It was in a tower form. Unfortunately, the waiter who seems very inexperience couldn’t get the things to work. The flame didn’t even reach the bottom of the drink!!!
Wei Chen sees his life flashes by..
Suck it Wheelchair, suck it!!
Someone: Hey it’s not working!!
Waiter: (Silence) …..
Ivan: WOI!!! REFUND!!!!!
Unfortunately, Wei Chen didn’t puke or got into really bad shape. He could still walk straight! GAHHHHH PISSES ME OFF!

Nick’s Birthday
Ladies and Gentleman,
This is Nick. One of my best buddy from A-level days. Nick is my fellow Man Utd fan, my ex sleeping partner in class, my ponteng kaki, sometimes my cybercafe kaki, sometimes my clubbing kaki and always will be my football kaki.
We celebrated Nick’s belated birthday on Friday (26/4/2005). Instead of having dinner at boring, pretentious western food restaurant, we had sea food, the china man style in Klang.
Yee Ming brought two bottles of white wine. The white wine went exceptionally well with the crabs…yummy!!!
But, looks like Nick enjoyed prawns more than crabs
Nick: shut up, i am trying to focus here
Then Nick showed us, how good he was at peeling prawns’ skins.
waaaaa…so fast!!! aaaaaaaah…my eyes!!!
Then we headed down to Zouk because Nick my Man here had 30 invitations to Cleo Bachelor of the year party.
That was us in the car on our way to Zouk.
WTF! Yee Ming, keep your eyes on the road, not the camera.Unfortunately, our night in Zouk was quite uneventful. Pretty boring if u ask me.
Inside Zouk
We were definately not very pleased.
CJ and me, not very pleased
Nick and Yee ming, stoned due to the boredom
Happy Birthday Nick…you’re the man-bitch that every man want to have as a buddy. =P
Happy Birthday to Sui Lin & Gavin!
Coincidentally they share the same birthday.
Gavin: I want to call you and pretend to be your former stalker. Unfortunately, your lousy phone cant be reached. AND FUCK YOU!!! MARY HOW COULD YOU KISS THIS GUY!! GAHHHH!!!
Sui Lin: Sorry we cant afford you a new digital camera or a Tiffany jewellery. I guess you have to settle for our cheap earrings. Hehe
May all your wishes come true!!!
