ok. Enough on the promoting friends. Wel1, to start up the performance that night, Tropic Green from Singapore played some Jazzy for the audience. As i said earlier in my previous post, I am not a Jazz listener my self, yet we can still move2, twist2 thru out Tropic Green performance. But still...... not up to my eargasm yet! yet...ok....wait till we see the next performer.However, the Cuban drummer and his father ( whom, towards the end invited by the lead pianist to perform together with his son) was AWESOME.... who would have tot, he was amongst the crowd. just behind us. (me and adjay) Lol.. and we were like 'you must be kidding me aite?' fro a while. but ya..that, i will not forget.

here to know more on their award and performance.
Next, is Tangora from France (pronunciation harus ala2 France juga ya).. she have this aura. I love her purple dress that night together with colorful long cardigan. The dim purple lighting even makes her performance looks absolute JazzMad if you know what i mean. She even makes the Kedungdung shrungkung yayayyaayyaaaa thingy. like what the Slixs did the other day. I love that. something different I must say. and what I love the most from Tangora is when she sing a song bout this girl at the Amazon river.

Next is the Schalk Joubert's and the 3 Continents Sextet from South Africa. Mind blowing JazzMad music from these band.
I love their performance. All of them are very talented. combination of musician from
USA, Norway, & Sweden. That is why they call themselves the 3 continents. duuuhhh.What i remember the most is the Percussion guy name Rich Armstrong. He sing and he plays the percussion too. uh. I just love the different elements that they brought that nite. Truly unforgettable performance. the 3 ladies with Trombone(Karin Hammar) , Alto Sax( Shannon Mowday) , and Trumpet (Hildegun Oiseth) was the centre of attraction that nite. pendek kata awesome lah...everything is..

While I was in the mood to enjoy Schalk Joubert's and the band performance, there goes my BB batt, totally drained. and I could not tweet up the nest performer which is Mr. Saxman.
Up Next Mr. Koh and the Takeshi Band. Sound Japanese right. nope.
this band is from Thailand. yup. Mr. Koh is a very sweet talker, but
when he blows the Saxo, he blew everyone's mind. Awesomely played Mr
Saxman.
