New year, new plan - New Studio!

All i want for the new year? A studio. Right, a music studio.

Me and my brother, Roland, is planning to build a small room right next to our house, to build a small music studio. More like a studio-cum-garage.

But first of all, we need enough cash, to buy all the equipments; mainly the amp & equalizer. I think 3 amps are more than enough. 1 with dual functions (for bass & second guitar, 1 for the main guitar, and the other for the vocal / microphone).

At the moment, we have only 2 guitars, or 3 (including Simon's guitar. So we need to buy a bass guitar, and a set of drum.

Searching for the best value of above equipments, if you have any suggestions, do inform me. i.e anyone who wants to sell their bass/drum/amp/equalizer.

Hope for the prosperous year of 2011. Then, a studio will be born.

But, above all that, i must acquire a 'license' from my dad 1st, hehe. :D

Christmas is calling, The year 2011 is calling as well

Christmas is just around the corner, that is also the case for the new year 2011.

Bah, holiday during festive season means no more jamming session since the jamming studio is taking some break as well. Mr Biteet Studio (sorry, forgot his name) will close his studio starting 22nd of December until the earlier January next year, which is not a good news to us since there's no other studio that we can find here in Miri city.

Sound pathetic isn't it? I dunno any other studio in this city, much like i dunno the meaning of lyrics sang by the Devil Wear Prada's vocalist. :D Joke.

Enough of this blabering, got to stop here.

Blessed Christmas and Holy New Year 2011 everyone.

Chow :)
