Here's a video from a potential client who lives quite a distance away from Kuantan. He's worried about his MIM Strat for a number of reasons, which include tarnished and uneven frets. The guitar is currently unplayable due to several high frets, as pointed out in this video.
He's also unhappy with the current state of the electronics and wiring, especially the stuck volume knob. Naturally, I've asked him to send the guitar over as soon as possible for a thorough inspection. I guess we'll just have to wait and see if he turns up.
Venue: Tan Yew Sing Multi-Purpose Hall, INTI International University
Music educators from all around Malaysia are currently attending a Kementerian Pendidikan Malaysia (KPM) orchestral workshop at INTI International University in Nilai, Negeri Sembilan. Now, it just so happens that INTI plans on holding its 2025 Aidilfitri celebrations later this month. And, since the workshop participants would still be at INTI, someone in management thought of inviting them to perform for their guests. So, here are our music educators, hard at work in rehearsal.
Folks, I don't leave the house much as the implants in my pelvis can make walking around quite painful. Last night, however, I actually drove all the way to Kompleks Teruntum to watch Sejora in action. Thus said, this post highlights personnel, setups, and related gear at said gig. As for the vocalists, I did notice that they were all using wireless mics.
Ibu Pejabat Polis Kontinjen Pahang held its Aidilfitri open house on April 16, 2025. Gracing this event was Kebawah Duli Paduka Baginda Al-Sultan Abdullah Ri'ayatuddin Al-Mustafa Billah Shah. His Majesty also consented to join Pahang CPO Dato Sri Yahaya Bin Othman, Ameng Spring and Korib Ibrahim onstage for "10 songs," among which were "Satu Hari Di Hari Raya" and "Pesanan Buat Kekasih." Musical accompaniment for this performance was courtesy of IPK's own RoadBlock Band.
