Dredging The Sludge 2010: Singapore (280210) Showcase/Tour Diary
26th February 2010
Zaihas waited at JB train station at 3.00 pm for Danny and Meme who wanted to join us for the trip to Singapore. Turned up train arrival was delayed to 5.00 pm. Zaihas took the 2 hours gap to send his wife and kids to the zoo to watch tigers, crocodiles, birds, owls, and all sorts of animals. Dropped by the Danga seaside to get some mussels and oysters. Danny and Meme called Zaihas just as Zaihas' wife was about to grab a shopping trolley at Giant Tampoi. Okay, so shopping was cancelled and Zaihas went to grab the 2 boys at the JB train station.
Zaihas got sick that night from the oyster he ate. Luth, Zaihas' son was also down with fever. So Danny and Meme hung around the house watching TV, getting online, and sleeping. Hehehe. Poor guys.

All woke up a bit late, at about 10.00 am. Sent Luth to clinic and Zaihas + QaQa + Danny + Meme were dropped off at C&M to hang out with Zam by Zaihas' wife. For the next 3 hours, we practically tried every instruments in C&M until we were dead bored. Zaihas' wife arrived at 4.00 pm and we went to Danga Bay. As today was QaQa's birthday, we got her a big cake and a big set of toys of gifts. Went back to Zaihas house at about 7.00 pm, getting ready for jamming session that night. Then came in a call, Aizat, a friend of Danny had taken the "tindakan nekad and naked" by taking a bus to JB from KL at the very last minute to join the guys to go to Singapore. Aparaa punya orang. In the end, we had to wait at Skudai Parade to fetch him right before we went jamming.
Jamming went well.
Maddame...'s Josiah, Ashie, and Art arrived in JB at midnight. After they scarily almost veered off to Senai, they ended up in Zaihas' house all right. All had dinner and chatted overnight (Aizat being the target and victim of conversation) before going to sleep.

All woke up about 9.30 am, washed, had breakfast, and headed off to Larkin bus terminal. We all reached the place at about 12.00 noon and left JB at 12.30 pm. Thanks to the swift actions of our pretty Malaysian immigration officer Miss Crister, we crossed the causeway in no time and arrived in Queens Street at about 2.00 pm. We walked to 141 Jalan Besar, and did soundcheck. Brader Bo and Hairul were already there, and were joined by the rest of the mighty Kaklupunlaks. Zam became the target of attack with his "white kotak kotak pants" by Hairul. Oh tidak. Kaklupunlaks soundchecked next, and this was followed by Maddame...'. We took turns taking lunch at a nearby mamak stall.
Maddame... started the show with hallucigenic noise and heavy sludgy march beats, stunning all those watching them. Kudos to these guys! Kaklupunlaks played next, a bunch of really seasoned experts. They mangled a bunch of rock kapak songs to the point of oblivion, and drummer Shahril was the highlight of the day with his customized drum setup and superb showmanship! Eerie contact lens lah brader! Tak boleh angs. That was not to say the rest of the band was any less powerful. Super tight ensemble!
Wynken Delirium played last at about 6.30 pm, we practically sludged through a full 10 song set plus drums and guitar solos by Yan and Zam! Brader Bo joined in for a cover of Sepultura's Refuse/Resist, splashing mineral water to the crowd in the process. Hehehe. All soaking wet. After a nice get-to-know-and-hang-out session with all who were present, Maddame... and Wynken Delirium departed from Singapore at about 7.30 pm for JB. Danny, Meme, and Aizat stayed back in Singapore as they have more plans to do in Singapore the next day.
We reached JB at about 8.30 pm. Josiah, Ashie, and Art had Nasi Ayam Penyet with Zaihas and family before leaving for Malacca that evening.
Wynken Delirium would like to thank all the people who attended the shows, and purchased the CDs we had on sale. You guys are the best! Thank you Brader Bo, Hairul, all of Kaklupunlaks, Maddame..., Hadi of Fall of Mirra, Kamar Zaman, all the braders and sisters present. We apologize if we forgot anyone's names, we are simply humbled by your attendance!
