An Acousticky Christmas

Alarice and Deb Fung from Sydney, Australiaaaa!

It was a rainy Christmas eve....but Dawnie, Andie, Muffin & I managed to make it to Timbre @ Old School. Yay! The chilly air actually made it feel like Sydney, which is always noice. :) Anyway, I quite enjoyed the sets they selected. Apart from their originals, they played many of my fav songs by Bethany Dillon, Brookey Fraser and Corrinne May. Thought that was a nice surprise. Pity about the lousy sound system and even crappier service though. And I wish Alarice and Deb had done more imaginative arrangements of the Christmas songs....would have been nice to hear them put an acoustic spin on the Christmas songs.

Here are some pics of our evening....

The car-less crew prepping ourselves for the climb up the super long flight of stairs at Handy Road, which leads directly to Old School at Mount Sophia.

The neverending stairs....quite a daunting sight.

Dawnie still can pose for picture while climbing stairs. haha! But check out how lovely the view is from there.

We made it!!! And that calls for beer. :)

Alarice and Deb getting ready

Andie with a pretty backdrop of twinkle lights!

Just realized our clothes look quite Christmassy with the colours. Muffin, or as Deb Fung calls him, "the boy with the scarf," had Corrinne May's "Little Superhero Girl" dedicated to him by Alarice and Deb ah! haha!



Andie & I at Chijmes now, listening to Reg and Jeremy play at a Christmas gig on the lawn. We met up with Arun and Ivan there too. I wish we had taken a pic of Ivan wishing random pple "Merry Christmas" after the countdown (which was forced upon us by the singer. weird.)! It was mighty funny.

"Shall I play for you pa rum pum pum pum? On my drum..."
Life's tough for Arun and Ivan as Jeremy's roadies. haha! This is one cute pic!
