Smash Inc - Live It Up DVD & Tees

Our "Live It Up" DVD is finally here! It features the music video shot by our lovely MOXXIE crew and friends from SCI as well as some of the live footage of the Launch of YDC @ Heerens and not forgetting the 'behind the scenes' recording process. We also received a present from MOXXIE which was our band tee shirts beautifully designed by Leroy and post edited by the team.

We shall take this opportunity to thank Fiona, Yu Zheng, Diana & the rest of MOXXIE as well as the support crew from SCI for making our music video shoot process a professional yet enjoyable one. It was great working with all of you despite the mad rush of having to change locations and setting up at each new location. We truly appreciate the effort.

National Day 06 Gig @ Yew Tee

We injected energy to the lovely Yew Tee neighbourhood on an early National Day morning. There was quite a large crowd who were all decked proudly in red and doing their part for the nation by participating in the annual walk around the constituency. It was quite a sight to see so many red shirts walking, so much so that if you wore some other colour you stood out like a sore thumb.




Well, we were not in red and white, but we had fun on stage nonetheless. It was interesting to see a drastically different demographics in the crowd, something we were not quite used to. The emcee even surprised us with a request for a chinese song.



The Guest of Honour for the event was Mr Yeo Chow Tong, our former transport minister. He was very vibrant and enthusiastic about having us around. Seems like we are the 1st live band to ever play for their event in their 41 years of National Day Observance Ceremony. Yeah, it's about time the local music scene opened up.

Mirage 2006

Mirage 06 is an inaugural welcome dinner for NTU Hall Freshmen. A gig with the largest attendance so far, with about 1500 NTU freshies eager to start their semester. What a way to mark their 1st day of school. To us, it was more of a reunion gig since jeff and ivan had just come back from US and Indonesia and we had barely enough time to practise.



Despite the lack of practise, we put up a tight set with 'Shinin' and recently revamped 'She's the One'. We had changed the outro to a Indo/Java-ish kinda rhythm to suit Ivan's chimes solo. It was just a refreshing way to end the song. Besides, that's where the fun of music-making is; to infuse your own creativity and talents into the song to make it unique.



We were right about 'This Love'; It was a definite crowd pleaser and many were singing along. The best part was people were body surfing to it! Never thought I wld see that in NTU, but well, life's full of surprises.

JASH 06 Mirage

Hey, we'll be playing @ JASH 06 Mirage, an inaugural welcome dinner for NTU Hall Residents on 7th August 06 Nanyang Auditorium. Unfortunately, its only extended to hall residents at a fee. Honestly, I dun even know why they are holding this event. But we have been invited to play, so we're gonna reorganise ourselves now that jeff and ivan are back in town and jam our hearts out onstage. Dbl O is one of the event sponsors i believe, and alcohol will be served in NY Auditorium. Cant imagine that in 16 weeks time we will be sitting for exams in that same venue. Gives me the chills ... Pls pls pls take care of yourselves and dun get all wasted and end up lying on the floor at Quad. Its an ugly scene.
