Hold your Breath . Breathe in, breathe out....











(drum rolls) + 128 beat by Joel






Music plays( Nananana......jeng...jeng....jeng)





I shall now present to you ;











The Greatest Ever Six-stringed instrument to be made !!!
The Burns Marvin 1964








How cool can cool be ? The Marvin.

(perasan meter= 100 homs)




What do the critics say ?

Burns is a Burns, and he who fancies the look of a guitar, knows and wants no alternatives.


As elegant as a strat, as bluesy as a gibson.But even without these, the guitar provides, what its name, it's image and it's looks promise.

classic-inspiring sounds of the 60s and also modern moderate distorted sounds are reproduced with such distinguishing high quality. Now, doesn't that explains it all. The Marvin.



Beatles > oasis > coldplay. End of hierarchy. Listen to The Beatles for yesterdays, Oasis when you're feeling important and Coldplay when you're close to your heart. These 3 bands are equivalent to the 3 stripes you wore and will wear everyday. Adidas. Impossible is nothing .

The toppermost of music's most poppermost creations. The cream of the crop.




Signing off,

M.W.J gonna get you high (parody/tribute)

Happy New Ear. Did I forget the Y ?

Okay, It's killing me.

What is ?


Every single thing I did for the year 2007 that could not be replicated for the first 3 months of year 2008. Tragic ? You bet. It's whole lot worse than the murder of Benazir.....blabla(Politics,we shall stay away)

E.g. Blogging(who does ?) , Onlining(Lovely word ! People, this word should be immortalised. No ? ), facebook-ing (ah seng still does) and etc etc......

For what the future holds, One thing's for sure, this BLOG will undergo a state of hiatus or 'coma' for the next 3 months or so. Unless could recreate a new meaning for this blog, consider this blog dead. Shots of defribulators are unable to do anything about it, what more could I say about chest compressions. Amoretisation.



We've gone too far ahead now. So let's stop time and enjoy the New Year. After all, soon you'll be writing 8 instead of 7 . The 200 stays constant.

8 days a week, It will be, instead of the ordinary 7 . Hopefully, 2008 tones down a gear lower if compared to 2007. A bit over the limit , there. Time flies real speedy. D'you know what i mean ?

But even before 31 December 2007, apparently, everyone's been saying their farewells and goodbyes. True, seeds will be dispersed here and there(viriparity?) and friends will go on their separate ways. For some they'll be Lost, some will be Heroes, maybe Desperate husbands and for a certain few, Prison break.

Gauze, a year had passed like a blink of an eye, and I'm still hoping for a rewind. Guess my player isn't what It's said to be. Heck ! It doesn't even have a pause or channel button. You know, another feature that I would love to have on the remote, is the copy, cut and paste feature. Imagine, having control with just one click, you could cut the piggies, separate them and then, pasting it on the surfaces of a sewage system. How cool ?


Will I miss things ?

I did and I will.


To address the band, it's been about 2 years since we played our first FOA. Miss the long jamming sessions in Joel's. Played/jammed for 4 hours without paying a cent. Now, that's not very common, is it ?


Now the rest, could take a grandma's story to finish.Shall cut short.

To friends, members, gangs and friends, it was just months ago we were flying, laughing out for 'lamity', shooting the bullets out of blacks/whites and hormometers, wonderwall-ing, seven eleven-ing, mamaking at rajesh, laksa-ing, camping(the cs meaning), sleepingtogether in class, scandaling, scrabbling, boozing, bowling, futsaling, movie-ing and getting 15 phones nabbed by Ah Chye.

Look, for each main title mention above, there's probably a dozen chapters under it. What a year !

Days of getting high are longed to be relived.


Special thanks to Llyod for organising an amazing farewell pool party. Food, pants , pool, drinks and house . What more could I ask for ? Wreaked havoc like there was no yesterday.



To you, readers out there, just hours ago, I started writing.......






To anwer to my question above.


No, I did not forget the 'Y'.




HAPPY NEW YEAR !

The 'z' in Le Vasiz Part 1

Look. Stop its less than one week before Christmas and a couple more before New Year.





We've probably come to the end of the line in being together as one unit/Squad/Contigen/Team/Band.





Well, you see.





LeVasiz is a lot more than just 5 members jamming around strawberry jam as a rock band. It's about friendship being at its most definitive. How many bands do you know that has 5 different races alltogether in one band ? nil. one or two. That's what i thought.








LeVasiz too is about the people behind it. The supporters. Yeah, I'm talking about the ones who've stayed with us through thick and thin. The lads that were present there when we performed, jammed, daytona-ed or McDonaled. You guys were the best group of friends that any band or person could ever have. For example, birthday boy turned man wears his 'levasiz:amoretisation' week in , week out. How fanatic ?








Generally, LeVasiz is about Leroy, Joel, Marvin, Shahrul and Thomas.





But it's also about nigel jing brian vinesh ko seng chye llyod simran cheah chris sai sam etikas dinamiks cendekias SPEC(all members) some(conv. girls) McDonalds Other Bands


StJohn's Friends&Family





And also to the ones whose names are not mention in the above All-star list.











The wonderwall times. How nostalgic ?



The high hippy times. Trips from smoking drinking coke.


Charity days. Free Us From Pain.



LeVasizmania .....Levasizzle......At our prime ! optimus?


Everyone-likes-to-camewhore days.

i GET HIGH WITH A LITTLE HELP FROM MY FRIENDS


The Emo days....back then, when we use to sing ElMO's(emo's) song !

Yeah, before I forget,Have yourself A Merry Little Big Happy Sad christmas !

Wether you are or not, please refer to the picture below. Look. In all sincerity, a nice warmth message from all of us to you. This came from the toppermost of our poppermost hearts.

LIQUOR Liquid



Cheers.....Here's one for the late night-ers. It's been a hard year. Late nights come and go. Coffee in , urine out. The basic survival tip in keeping the body alive while mugging for a paper that could mean a lifetime, COFFEE. As simple as that, say it with me , Coughfee. Three cheers for the best drink in the world. Heep hippy hooray.





Caffeine = Drugs = Alive = High = Insomnia = Nothing else better to do = STUDY



Some of you might have other ideas, its fine. You're guess is as good as mine.







Now, exams are over and holiday's in you. A change of periods comes a change of beverage. A turn for the better. Let's turn over a new leaf ,everyone . Boohooo.. to you if you're drinking any other than this.



Now,hit the lights everyone. Spotlights. Headlights. I present to you...... Here comes alcohol !


Couldn't have said It any better !


WAIT !


There's a catch.

Like every single strand in your hair, it has its pros and cons . For some, it could be straight or curly, black or blonde, grey or white, long or short, dyed or died, bald or hairless.



Well, champagne, beer, martini, whisky, gin and tonic, ethanol or any other drink related to alcohol are a drink for the gods, dogs, the useless, the clueless, the selfless, the riches, and the beatless. It's also one for the power-crazy and lam . Alcohol could lead you to bliss or a step further, it could lead you to miss. Hey, people do go to jail for drinking alcohol, you know ! Read the news ?
I heard that there was this bangla(who else) who got caught by police for drinking while peeing. Aih....Huge offense, i'm afraid.




Though, alcohols are good partners for parties and all that , It still has its disadvantages.
In this case, alcohol isn't really the type of drink you'll want beside your book, reference book, facebook, paper, flexible curve , eraser or calculator . It isn't the studios type.





Why ?





Because because.....





A beer may cause.....

Now I know. To forget things , drink alcohol. I wonder which genius came out with this. Very uplifting and inspirational. I'm sure its not Einstein or Newton. One couldn't do broadband and the other has to many laws. Maybe , it's the squirrels then.







There.
The end. There isn't anymore.

I'm Only Sleeping

Here's december, without even knowing november had past....fast forward the seconds and it becomes....next year's last year.





What have we done ? (as LeVasiz)


Nothing really.



What are we gonna do ?




Well, all i know is that I don't,you see.




Anyways let's see what there's to see .... The Parable of the-I-Got-Nothing-to-do Band.




Last month , we did...





There, the famous 3 science subjects, Biography, Chemistery and Physiques.
Did i get that right ?


If you are not aware on how difficult the Addmaths paper was, Here's a small preview.
Damn tough !



Questions taken from KelanLim trial paper.





Slithering backwards , we too had and experienced the last days of our lives(in highschool) Saying last goodbyes to cheaters and foes hoping we'll never see their faces again. Relax,we're not planning to kill each other,we're not killers, man ! .........well, maybe some of us are.

Shahrul looking all gloomy and rainy. A harbinger for darker times to come.

Here's the rest of the crew or shall I say Screw. Held a meeting just hours before executing what would prove to be Joel's demise.

We casted lots and it came to a decision by The Vindraft to scrap their earlier plan which was, a rally to get their refund of 1 million barks . We thought long and hard , and we said, " For who chooses to do the shooting is plain poppycock, but the one who chooses to do the killing is the ultimate bollocks ! ".

So,we played, wrote names and then, ended up with Leroy being the chosen one to finish whatever there is to finish off.

Warning !

ARGHH.........the drummer boy is &$@# and his blood is colourless!

Poor Joel,

He would have still been alive if he had only done 'one' more drum solo. Just one more will do . But he did not.....hmm.... How tragic.





Fear not. Lucky, Hayden Panetheatre(Claire Bend It) was there on holiday after tireless acting for 11 amazing episodes of heroes season 2. She stopped by the school and generously donated a small fraction of her blood . The little blood that she gave ended up being the only that could raise Joel from the dead. Extraordinary enough, all well ends well. Joel was dead, but now he is alive. He was lost, but now he is found. Pheuww.....



Not far from there, Hiro Nakamura paid us a visit too. He thought us or rather lectured us on the tales of Takezo Kensei which of course, were very fairy tale-like . I mean he said Takezo kensei was an Ang Moh ! Shss.....Who would believe that ?



Whatever the case is, It's all forgotten for now. After an hour long of 'ununderstandable' broken japanese english, he brought us all out for some time-travelling and so to say, we pondered on our future . Who wouldn't ?

What's LeVasiz like when they're 64 ?


Unfortunately, when I'm 64.....Year 2064


Guitars will be gone . It'll be the return of the vintaged instruments.

Will you still need me,

Will you still feed me,

When I'm 64.

SPM's OVER ! Let's Talk about revolution now !


Word's are flowing like endless rain into a papercup..............They slither while they pass, they slip away across the universe

Thoughts meander like restless wind into a letterbox....They tumble blindly as they make their way across the universe



Okay , enough of that shit. let's move on to post Spm duties....

Sleep....Music...Sleep....Movies.....Online.....Facebook....Blog.....Holiday.....and finally JINGLE BELLS.

Oh my ........Oh my........

......German ? French ? Russian ? Some exam in Spm ?


No......It's a line with the application of a concept that you call a tape loop ....a backwords guitar solo....a tape rewind.......reverse......inverse....diverse...


Still can't Decipher ?

SPM

Yes , the whole levasiz is under spm - Stress before Peperiksaan in Malaysia.

And yeah, we haven't updated for quite a while , too long la. Too much sejarah there.

So, wish us Good luck, yeah ...

Even now , I can hear people shouting , screaming , wishing me without meaning it, saying " Hey, Good luck !" . Must have been from a mile away from where I am right now - part of my superhuman abilities. What a distance.

Thomas and Joel , stop fighting ! Marvin you too !
Let's just say facebook's shite for the time being, to block our minds from accepting it as an everyday drug needed to boost our coloured lives, ya ?

It's a bit like amphetamine,you see - A high dose or excessive use of it could lead to anxiety, hallucinations, severe depression and psychological dependence.
As conclusion, stop taking it.



This part below explains everything that has gone around us so far.........


I say yes, you say no.

I say stop, and you say go go go............

Oh no................

You say goodbye and I say HELLO.

hello,hello

I dont know why you say goodbye, i say hello.


It's an irony isn't it. Everyone has finish theirs and we still have world war one and two coming up !


There, whole post of contradictions and full of juxtapositions. Goodnight, blog .

Fake Tales Of San Francisco

A tale for you, me and them.


LeVasiz is on their way in doing a triple threat .


After much hype through their music,


LeVasiz has been called to feature in an upcoming movie !


A potential ' Movie of the Year ' nominee when it is release in a years time.


Movie critics are already giving it two-thumbs up.


A new South Park movie.

LeVasiz will be there banging their heads alongside Cartman , Kyle, Kenny, Stan and the rest of the spoilt brats.

Instead of fighting against poverty, Levasiz will be fighting against profanity .

It'll be LeVasiz vs Cartman ....of course. We'll be saying hi....and he'll be saying @$%$&***.

And without a doubt, Cartman will be there making a parody or two out of the many songs we have, changing all the lyrics to rhyme with the F*** word. (All in funeral arrangement)

He'll lleave us gobsmacked.

So there, with reference to the title above. Thank you.

Jump on the bandwagon, put down your handbooks.

A fake tale from hollyweird......

The White Album

No, this is not be a racial related post where I'll shoot vinesh because he's not white but tries to be one.
LeVasiz doesn't apply the laws of Dasar Aparteid into their band , you see. We only adapt ourselves to such laws like Newton's, Faraday's , Lenz's and Mendel's.

Well,

It's been long, too long actually, since anything came up from this b log .


To tell you the truth , there's really nothing to write about when you're feeling tired and giddy after working your brains off for almost a month now. It ain't over yet by the way.

Gonna update anyway.


So,here's a nostalgic post, adapted from the renaissance movement where humans start picking themselves up from the bottom ends of zaman gelap to the rightful minds of focusing on artistry.

I'm talking about pictures here. The one's you were not known to have seen la...


Flash backwords as our four seasons, seconds flicker..

Back then..

Some of the pics captured during The LeVasiz-Coldplay period.

Le Vasiz jamming in a room other than joel's . This very few sessions was held at taman Fresh Breezes where jalans are said to be Chantek.

After rounds of standing next to each other in a yellowed movement, in my place was still never good enough for you.

The day where it came off. It hit, then miss. The balloons I mean. Surely, a day for confetti to be freed from the walls of helium.

That was then...


A year later.....


And It came The LeVasiz - ColdMay period..XD

LeVasiz belting out against the others who join SSI Botb 2007 on 7.7.07

This were another first for the lads. This was the first time LeVasiz perform competitively as a quartet instead of the original five .We made it well enough though. Singing till the cows coe home from 'The Day I'm Right " and "Cold May".

But In the end of the day, when everything falls apart, after a heartfelt performance and two melancholy songs, things could still not bring us down to a sappy state of mind.

When we're sappy and down, we'll be emofied or at least try to be.....but we're not from hollywood, you know.

Apparently, acting emo could sometimes prove to be a hard thing to do, especially when you're surrounded by a band of jokers around you. D'you know what I mean ?

We'll never be sappy enough to let it show. Well, as for now, you could call us happy.

This was a candid of us trying to hide the lolness inside of us. We failed obviously.

The End. Too many pictures for our own good, huh ?

(Morning glory) I'm not quite sure i want to know the story

Here's an update..

But before that, I shall 'proudly' announce with a frown as big as a barrel of a gun, that 2/5 of LeVasiz were choosen for PLKN / NS in the past week or so. Damnit.



Okay, shall get back on the short post below...

Well, in this very post , It's all about anthems and this time we've ignited a love for a new one. So, there, I shall present you...

English College's(sjam) new, refined school anthem,


'Wonderwall"

no capo on 2nd fret

Today is gonna be the day
That they're gonna throw it back to you
By now you should've somehow
Realized what you gotta do
I don't believe that anybody
Feels the way I do about you now

Backbeat the word was on the street
That the fire in your heart is out
I'm sure you've heard it all before
But you never really had a doubt
I don't believe that anybody feels
The way I do about you now

And all the roads we have to walk along are winding
And all the lights that lead us there are blinding
There are many things that I would
Like to say to you
But I don't know how

Because maybe
You're gonna be the one who saves me ?
And after all
You're my wonderwall

Today was gonna be the day?
But they'll never throw it back to you
By now you should've somehow
Realized what you're not to do
I don't believe that anybody
Feels the way I do
About you now

And all the roads that lead to you were winding
And all the lights that light the way are blinding
There are many things that I would like to SING for you
but I don't know how

I said maybe(maybe)
You're gonna be the one who saves me ? (saves me)
And after all
You're my wonderwall

I said maybe(maybe)
You're gonna be the one who saves me ? (saves me...saves me...saves me..)
And after all
You're my wonderwall

Said maybe
You're gonna be the one that saves me
You're gonna be the one that saves me
You're gonna be the one that saves me


This song is to be sung at every assembly in the den. Students who are caught not singing to the song could be sentenced to life inprisonment(equivalent to singing to the old one). The anthem is then followed by others such as The Scientist, Don't look back in anger and....etc etc






"Ol' ye lads know me song , wonderwall, yeah ? ...If yer don't, you dumwits can take the piss out of yer bloody heads. So, stop livin' yer f***ing shitelife and live forever, man . D'ya know what i mean ? " - Now, imagine this quote uttered in strong southern-british accent accompanied with a V-sign flashing in front of you. Get the drift...vroom.

Thank you. Goodbye. Happy Examdays. Let there be love.

Don't let anyone kick a hole in the sky so the heavens will cry over you.

.....................................................................................................

Question Of The Day :

What's a wonderwall ?

Acquiesce....

Okay...



If i'm not mistaken , this is Le Vasiz's 100th post entry. At last...pheuww !!



Right here, I'll try to keep things short. Won't be writing much.



This should be a short continuation of FOA. Here, I took some pictures. Don't fret, we did not cam-whore.



Here, this was the number of people that arrived in FOA before 10.00 a.m.
The figures went on to touch 403 at the end of the day.
I counted...........


The venue...and the crowd and the stage.

Look ! A top view picture of the Spastik Hall on the 4th of August .
FOA day. XP


Now, are you satisfied ?


Right, forget the rest, I saved the best for last.


Another video. Yeah ! The second song we performed during SSi's Botb . FOA videos would have to wait and yes, i know i'm to late. But still, watch this video. It's also a semi-tribute video for LeVasiz . Click on it....It won't be lag if you're not using dial-up.

The Day I'm Right (live in Tropical Inn)

The last day I'm right....

*sorry for the bloops in the video



Where were You while we were getting high ??


LeVasiz has made their name on the walk of fame. yeah, we've made it to land of Far, far away.
We're bloody rockstars. Even so, we're featured in Magazines (such as Grafitti), going shoulder to shoulder with the likes of Coldplay, Fall out boy and MGS.


There, Jalan Sungai Chat.


Then they said I should feed my head, but that to me was just a day in bed.

Band Moments

Here's one..



But First , let me thank everybody for making this year's FOA a success.


Congrats to Nigel, Simran, LeVasiz, The Foa crew and the rest of LDDS for making it a huge success. Maybe not so huge but it was way better than what we expected, yeah ?


" Hey, they were no fights ! Good. " - Vice president.


" I'm so relieve....I lost my appetite to eat " - President.


Even the stalls were such heavens. The dogs ran out fast and furious. Some were hot and some were not. But thank gauze for wonderland/figland who supplied the buns that helped stopped the sun.


Thanks to other schools too who wasted their sleeping time who came to perform and deform in the spastic hall. Even the lalas contributed to the event...lolx..lolx



Okay, after all of 'em, kata-kata aluan above,


I shall continue with Le Vasiz's band moment of the year this year.


Yeah. We had our last performance during FOA but that's not it. There's another story behind the morning glory.


Somehow, leading to this anticipated finale, a plot came around . Apparently , some drama had surface upon the crests of waves.


One or two weeks before FOA, 3/5 of LeVasiz had been trying to get on hold of the whole band in trying to actually end things with a bang..Boom......

But plans had to come to a halt as our drummer(the best drummer in JB) wasn't to keen on things and decided to ignore this matter.

He was into FOA but he wasn't into drumming for LeVasiz anymore. So, much persuasion was done into getting our drummer boy to perform one last time for FOA. Even band manager and vice president tried to do their thing , vinesh too(he did his aygeeeewye stuff) but we still failed. His reluctance of not performing was like a final decision, no turning back kind of thing. Well , no thanks to Thomas who played the part of the darkside, always running away from things .



So after all tries and alternatives in persuading joel, like the daytona and the driving issue, we still couldn't get the head nod , thumbs up, or an ' okayla' from the retainerteeth of joel.

As a result , 3/5 of Le Vasiz opt for an acoustic performance instead. Leroy, Marvin and Shahrul were left with vocals , guitars but no drums. No drums !!! For the first time , we might find ourselves playing percussion-less




*Leading to FOA day-we got through auditions.




On FOA day, Joel was still not in the mood for drums. Even though after sound-checking, he played a beat or two , he still wasn''t quite there yet. It was an acoustic performance of "all i know is that I don't know' and 'The Day I'm Right' after all. No fairy tale....yet.



9.00 a.m. FOA starts. Performances came in thick and fast. Tribulation and Mary Got Shot had the time of their lives. The SDJ band were totally dreadful, horrendous ! The vocalist should have enrolled himself for vocal lessons or maybe, he could have dug his ear before performing. The dances were sort of mediocre - none of them had the 'wow' factor, instead,they showed their 'boo...boo' factor. The sketches were all worth the watch , especially EC's version of the real Potter story and the junior's sketch on wooing girls. SIGS' sketch ended winning the whole thing undeservedly, it wasn't that bad nor was it good. Pretty monotonous. The real deal performance that came before the break was actually by they're lead vocalist himself, Leroy who sang a duet with sara(convent) . erm...the other solos and bands were great too especially, the corrs(all sibling band). The crowd came in and out and we ended having 400 plus people in the school hall at the end of the day.


After the break, and two other performances after that, comes the long farewell by the band that had participated in the last two FOAs. This was gonna be our last and finally, complete a hat-trick of performances in FOA . It was just sad thinking hours before the show that drums could not come with us. But the acoustic must go on. And so, we started to end what we started. The last hurrah in FOA.

To our first in our song setlist, we played "All i know is that i don't know "...a rather twisted title that had a bit of cynism in it but it wasn't. Even the emcee had thought the titles were confusing.
Before we started , like the usual shit we do, we'll stare at the audience and in a way, stamp our ground before we introduce ourselves. We started the song with strums from Marvin, complimented by the crusading leads by shahrul , followed by the voice of Levasiz, Leroy. What was missing ? It was the heartbeat of the band...the jeng..doom doop...bang...chip...da...da..bang.

Past the verse 1, skip the pre-chorus, sailed past the 1st chorus , when suddenly everybody started cheering, it wasn't because of Leroy's last chorus line ' ..all you know is that you really don't know...' , not because Shahrul had a massive rift or anything , not because Marvin said something funny enough to tickle your bones, but it was........it was........
kaboom......*out of nowhere , the dry ice effect appeared.........
It was a bird , no, it was an aeroplane..no.....it was...

Joelman; a hero bigger than the likes of any superman , batman , blackman and other heroesyou know about. It was the drummer boy...The Return Of the Jedi Joel.
As the early trio look back , they saw a bright shining light that was rather blinding similar to the ones you would expect to see coming out of a patronus charm. Expecto patronum. Only ours was, a tall , lanky guy who owned drumsticks and was a master in it, drum whacking . A majestic moment that had everyone bengang, lag , shocked , gobsmacked, awestruck and other words synonymous to this. It brought tears to the band manager, made everyone clap and slap and had fans peeing their pants. Strikethrough the line before this sentence . Move on.

The band were soon raged with harmony once again and continued the rest of the song followed by the second, "The Day i'm Right " as a quartet. We ended the whole performance exactly the way we wanted. It would have been great if we had the famous five. Thomas could have help in making that five. Well ,to comment on our performance, It wasn't our best, It was a bit messy though, but heckla...who cares !! As long as the drums were there.

Right after Leroy uttered this words,
I'll try....
'til the day i'm right....

It was all cheers as we bid farewell to FOA for the last time.

Behind the scenes, there were questions asked on why Joel had made a u-turn what really ignited him to play for one last time.

To tell you a secret, it was all down to band manager , Nigel, who manage to quote one of the most uplifting lines from the funniest movie of all time, Simpsons The Movie.

Nigel approached to Joel and said,
" Look into your heart and you'll find your answer in it..."

Joel did that literally, grab his sticks and before you know it , he was up there on stage, getting high, and doing things he'd been doing for the past 3 years in Levasiz.
The whole thing was dropdead touching if you were in the band , close to the band. A hero's salute is what Joel actually deserved. Most people would have just said " Fug the 3 lads on stage , me not helping 'em " but in Joel's case, he said " Oh..gee, I shall just drum. It's the last anyways. Shall be daytona-ing later. "



End Of Story.


Here's a video of 'Cold May' . The last song we experimented before FOA.



FOA videos would be here faster than you'll know the true meaning of 'Amoretisation'. A hat-trick after all.

Fill in the title for me...

Festival Of Arts

Venue : Spastic Hall-Home of the fantastics(we like to emphasise on our lameness)

Time : From the minute you wake up 'til the last minute of FOA

4th of August 2007

Make yourself free....and be there...

Further information about FOA will be continued......

Immediately...

By now, you guys should know that this year's FOA is the last of the last.


So please be there.......


Or else...........


Terrible things will come upon you :
- a twisted tail
- a thousand eyes
- a dome that traps you forever
- EPA.....EPA......EPA.......FOA
- And not to forget....Spiderpig who'll be there to haunt your minds.

As prophecise by......


" I was born to lead , not to read "


Note : We , Levasiz , are not lame people and that's final. Maybe you guys are suffering from a perception problem. So, I suggest you better head off to your nearest clinic , please ! and get a check-up. Who knows , you might need a dose of arcane. Do some saponification to youself.

Go to http://www.sistic.com/ for your FOA tickets. Strikethrough this line.

Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today...


Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace...

Well those were words from one of the greatest song writersof all time I should say. He was dreamer but he was not the only one. He was part of the renaissance movement that started a whole new revolution of activist , fast thinking people(unlike vinesh who's obviously as slag as none of us could be) and highly intellectual people who'd focused on the brighter side on future and arts. Actually , he was more of a peace person and one of the greatest humanitarian of our lifetime.


So,who wrote this ??


Leonardo Da Vinci? Michaelangelo ? Rafphael ? Petrach Machiavelli ?


Well, the answer is bloody 'none of them above' damnit. If you fig-ging still don't know who it is, then, you must have live your life under a coconut shell.




Enough of the gibberish stuff above. let's go straight to the point .

today's entry has a relation to the word 'imagine'. Let's begin. If imagining a world without heaven is easy to do , then you're about to anticipate bigger , harder things to imagine. This time it's worst . Not even the most sinful, atrocious acts could outdo the following acts you're about to know.




Let's all have a look at FOA ......



Now , let's look at the setlist this year. Dances, solo acts, sketches, comedies and ...........




NO BANDS!!!!!


Gauze....


Imagine FOA without bands...........

I wonder if you can ?

So, now you know. At this point, we're inches away from pressing the red 'emergency' button.
A lot of changes will be brought up to this year's FOA but ....Look, there's never been a Festival Of Arts without the battle of the bands being the headline of the show. Maybe, there'll be now if everything goes nothing according to plan......And that's why we need to work something out together , seperti pepatah melayu,' bagai aur dengan tebing' to salvage what's left of FOA's soul. Don't let it slide away....

Well, according to scientific terms, the hypothesis is and has always been No rock bands , No FOA and no FOA if there's no bands. Besides the hypothesis given, we could also relate to our linear graphs and conclude that, the number of bands is directly proportional to the number of people coming for FOA. So if our x-value is 0 , then our y-value should also be zero. Get It!


Even LeVasiz themselves held such memmorable days doing perfomances during FOA . Heck. Even in their first ever FOA battle-of-the bands , out of the other 11 bands , Le vasiz had manage to achieve a respectable 3rd placing , loosing only to 2 other bands who were 2 to 3 years more senior than them.

And that's why we need to pull all our strings out and try to get more bands into the event. Don't care if they sound like your pet-frog singing, but as long as they sing in engrish. Bollocks, strikethrough that line cause I want quality bands that are immense with high potential energy.

So, come 4th of August , let's hope they'll be bands for you and me to lay our eyes and ears upon. *crosses fingers.




By the way, I think the LDDS should come up with their own 'awareness ribbon'......to save FOA

Forget red for AIDS or the pink ribbon for Breast cancer, here's the all-new BLACK RIBBON for FOA...

See. Even our own smiley doesn't look to happy!...boo-hoo

Happy Belated B'day to band manager / Ldds president...

Carcinorma

The Title above has no relation to the post below. It's just there.



Well, sorry for the long awaited update .





Now for the SSI thingy.

Not this time I'm afraid. I know ; Again.
The vids are still in the cam and not out in YouTube yet . Sorry for the wait.
Alarm me ! coz i'll be taking it fast, then taking it slow.


But hey, I'm gonna update this 14000-plus hit blog anyways. Strikethrough.



So, in this very post. i'm going to write about........





Tension.........



tension ? yes. tension. The single thing in some cases, that always seems to be the main cause in the make or break period of a band.



To me(speaking on other behalfs) , tension, is one aspect of the jamming process that i'll never get used to. Tension is an inherent part of being in a band/squad/team/class. Without tension,there's no focus. without focus, the work becomes shaddy and ineffectual. Tension means people actually give a shit ! i mean shite....



For example, if you place four to five people in a room , working on something they are all passionately about, a thing called friction, is inevitable. What is remarkable is that this friction very rarely ingnites into flame. And when it does, something great will be at the receiving ends . In no time , you'll see the melodies cum symphonies driving the winding roads of ecstacy, the lyrics sailing on a crusade down the seven seas and songs leading you to places where nobody knows. That's Le Vasiz.



Quote for thought :

It feels a lot better to check the map and know which direction you're headed and how far you've got to go rather than wander around aimlessly and hope for the best.

Here's to all bloggers ...... A day in a life !

Thank You.

Blimey , LeVasiz has bloody 14000 hits in the space of 12 months !

An update for the SSI thingy.............



Maybe not now.

Maybe, I'll leave a short note here instead.
On the band's point of view, we did what we did and that's all there is to it. We played the songs, we brought the emo back and nothing else matters.
By the way , the title of the new song is 'ColdMay' , not 'call me'.



First of all , a million thanks to LeVasiz . Let's thank ourselves.
And Joel, 'til now, I can still hear screams of , " Hey, mana drum solo ? " coming from the back of my mind. The whole LiveEarth were waiting for it but it never came.

Well, congrats to the band that actually won the bloody thing, the 1000$ you guys won.Although I don't know how but bravo.Well done, to the others too.......Shite! I hate eating hotCrossbuns'


Not to forget , a very well thank you to those who came to watch us . Thank you ,vinesh....Eh ,were you there? Nevermind, thank you for your support ; all of you. You chose to watch Le Vasiz instead of dreamy sleeps; good choice. Strikethrough the last sentence.





I'll talk more aboout the SSI botb soon. Videos and pics , coming soon. They'll be here faster then you can say L-E-V-A-S-I-Z ! Gonna Fly now...














The only reason why I'm not writing more is because of this :

From 'Square one' to 'The Scientist' to "Fix You". It's happening all over again.not.


52 weeks. Oh, take me back to the start.....

When wheels stop turning...

We're done...


This could be the last of all that's left....


nothing's right !


Come this Saturday , On 7.7.07 at 7.00am in Tropical Inn- SSI botb.


LeVasiz will be carrying out their last ever hurrah on stage.

One last time in counting their demons

and chasing them all away..


The end of the line after a 3 year long endeavour.


The end of the last day from the top of the first page


The last chapter of their own self-titled novel.


If 3 years ago, things started out with 'A' , this coming saturday , things would certainly be at 'Z'.


At near ends of finishing a book......


So......

This coming Saturday,

we could'nt be bothered by anything else, other than giving it all we got.

No flagging period could stop our tracks.

Not even the hottest sun could stop us, sure enough not even the darkest night could deprived us from our last roar on stage.

even LiveEarth won't be world-concious enough to overshadow 'The Day I'm Right'.

And even the heaviest rain could not make us shiver 'til we're cold enough. Not as cold as coldplay coldmay that is..


Though we might be a man down this saturday , we'll still be there , Standing next to you. We'll be there, injecting you with the arcane needed, even though we might never be good enough.

We were four when we first did it, and we'll be four for the last of it.


Why ? Well, All i know is that i don't know.


' Give me one , coz one is best '-Chris M.....
This picture could have been nicer if we had something to hold on to.





We'll end things with a bang . A fading supernova.





It feels a lot better to check the map and know which direction you're headed and how far you've got to go rather than wander around aimlessly and hope for the best...


The last leg of our fufp tour. Will you be getting high ?

The 27th

i suppose, there are certain things in life we have to keep shut to ourselves.

and private.

this simply can't be a depiction of a bithc because its a male.

first part of post has no relation to second part of pot in any way whatsoever, just in case you're as lag as me after all that flying. jet lag. DARN, we could have went to watch JET.

A message

In today's entry , here's something new...

If you can't see the words. Wear higher powered lenses, ya ? Concave lens, maybe?

Look, observe the pic. Everything's in it, you see . I wrote the post, in the picture. Don't get it ? Well, to make things Malaysianish, it's something similar to those coffee packs you see in your mamak stalls, where they prominently show off the 2 in 1 and 3 in 1 packs they use for making ur kopi 0'. It's the same with the pic above .
(post)(picture)= ?......
I haven't seen anyone doing it . So, there it goes.


We might revert to this type of blogging in the future ! Write on paper(test pad) . Then paste it on blog.


If we're lazy la.....


Btw, this is an emo post.


EmotionallyMarvinOriented post..


Emo right ?

how the system works

did lifehouse think when they named their song blind, did coldplay think when they called it yellow, did we think when we called it the day i'm right

for every action, there's an equal an opposite reaction, for every tale, there's a head, for every dream, someone else has a nightmare

can we blame the tv for our social ills, can we blame the gullible girl who emoed at 12.30 AM at a secluded lake even more ulu then permas and got raped, can we blame the sun for the neglect of the moon.

we write stories in life.

chapter

after chapter

like a book. a dictionary more precisely. where definitively, there can only be 26 chapters to it. it starts with the A and ends with the Z

you flip through it blindly, going through the endless words that make up this dictionary. the jargon confuses, their insignificance to you makes you worry.

Do you tell yourself to consume these words? What are the chances of you ever needing words like serendipity or moira.

assuming you do, you play the mental game, the torture, the abuse.

you push it through treating each alphabet as a learning oppurtunity.

The A, the B the C, like a child taking his first foray into life, you discover His faults, you appreciate them, you dicover Her beauty, you're overwhelmed.

you persevere through difficult times. the D, the F and the G. they give you a hard time, and you hit rock bottom, halfway to giving up, looking at what's further ahead.

Then the great 'I', emerges. you're blinded by self dignity. I want to understand. I want to be proud. I want to stand next to you. you say the I do's, you say the I am's. You say the I will's.

then you move along. J comes the jokes, and K comes Ko, and L comes Lame. You've hit the high. just like Ko and his Lame Jokes. you realise your Journey. you Know you've found it. You know she's the one you Love

Then you past the halfway mark, M, and the only thing that matters to you is finishing it. you can't turn it around, you've past the point of no return. there's no turning M upside down.

you're happy. all you've got to do now is keep the consistency. keeps things happy. it goes smooth, reminding yourself that you embarked on it in the first place, you stuck your foot into it, you're comitted to your cause.

and then.

comes the end. you find no more inspiration. you think that all is lost. you feel neglected by your own choices. You feel the demons outnumbering you. you think that it would have been better, better if you didn't write those first few chapters in your life.

you're confident you've reached the end of the journey. you see the way out. you jump for it in a split second. you're determined to end it, determined to run out the wide door. you breeze past the words, overlooking the details. you smell it approaching, you tell yourself "finally, an end to this journey, my way out of this. after all, who would ever agree to me reading an entire dictionary". The dictionary warns you to tread with caution, give it more time, don't just skim through.

You finally flip to the first page of the next chapter, expecting to find the back cover of the dictionary.

You're shocked. you see the R, written in bold. you see the word RABBIT, gleaming at you, helplessly. You turn back a page. you can't believe your eyes. all this while, you thought you were going to end it. you thought that it was over. and you realise.

all you did in the previous chapter of your life, was Quit.

there are times we all see it like a book. we tend to take the shortest chapters in life and think of it as the end. and you know very well, those last few chapters, X Y Z, are the shortest in life, but fail to look at it this way. Q, is short too. you think its over, but the dictionary goes on even further.

We have hit this Q before. all of us. last year, this year, Now.

The dictionary can teach us words, expand our potential, make us proud of what we know.

But lets not forget its main purpose.

The purpose of the dictionary.

To Teach Us The Meaning Of Life.

for the record, i am feeling what you think i'm feeling, albeit i'm not sitting by a lake. that's for sure.
