The look on Diane's face when we surprised her with our presence at her Euphonious Band Competition was priceless! I have to admit I lied when I called her on our way and said Aun was driving me 'home'.

So what do I think about the event? For us, it was very refreshing, sitting in an awesome hall with over two thousand enthusiastic students who greeted the contestants with loud cheers and screams. Before it began, whenever the video cam showed one of the female technicians on the screen albeit tudung clad, it inevitably resulted in wolf whistles and laughter in anticipation of the events to come. Another thing is, when you have an attachment to the person or event you are there for, you are able to make generous adjustments for flaws. So we really enjoyed ourselves tremendously and it was a wonderful night to remember.

Diane's band was the fourth group to play. They were the five finalists who had been chosen out of twenty bands at the preliminary round. I told myself I was there to enjoy and share the moment with her when I saw how the other bands were supported with their hundreds of supporters who cheered loudly for their teams and hung their banners on the balconies of the hall. The judges' decision would account for 70% and audience vote 30% and 30% is a lot.

So here's the video of Crash and Burn's second song which swept the hall away. The audience loved the vocalist who had bugs bunny teeth and made such funny faces that nobody minded his pronunciation or was it the sound system? They made such a wonderful concerted effort that the judge who commented was overwhelmed and said the team worked very well together, and the violinist was FANTASTIC! Well done, all praises to God, you really deserved to win! So here's the arrangement of Mamma Mia that blew us all away...
