=======================
4th floor, 60 Weld Quay is where we meetup every two weeks for movies. It also happens to be the offices for an NGO or two that deals with social issues in Penang.
One floor below is the apartment/studio/crash-pad of Cheong from Huse Di-Dai (HSDD). Plans are in the works to upgrade the DIY-recording studio with acoustic padding and better equipment, or so I've been told.
Last Sunday, several well-known local bands played at the gig there. Although it was planned to start at 2, the show only took off at around five o'clock... as the folks from Bittersweet were STILL on their way from KayheL. And lets not forget the one hour delay for soundcheck... conventional indie wisdom in Malaysia dictates that the show will actually start half to one hour later than stated...
Opening for the show was Cheong's screamo band HSDD. Then came Telebury...
Love Me Butch was next...
and finally post-punk band Bittersweet... who's gigs have been recently advertized in Junk mag.
And everyone had a great time... despite the delay...
Love Me Butch and their pals...
...and some of the folks from Bittersweet with their posse. Note to self: Cellphone cam blows balls. Remember to bring camera next time.
