Advertlet Bloggers @ DiGi Fu-yoh! Street Blast

in behind-the-scenes, entertainment, music
As an East Malaysian Advertlet blogger, I received the email inviting 5 bloggers in Kuching to cover the DiGi Fu-yoh! event at the Amphitheatre on 9th June, Saturday night. After some consideration, I decided to give it a miss. I figured I’ll most likely be there to cover it for the entertainment column anyway and didn’t have to deprive someone else of a pass.
Three of the five Kuching bloggers who scored a pass are bloggers I’ve met before – Ben, Irene and Jimmy. The two I’ve neither heard of or stumbled across before are Adrian and Alysha.
In case Advertlet or anyone else is wondering how they fared, they behaved like responsible rookie reporters – armed with a pass that will let them go ANYWHERE, yet not taking full advantage of it. Not necessarily a bad thing though. I’m sure they got the photos/videos they needed while trying to cause as little inconvenience as possible.
Anyway, since I know exactly who they are and why they’re there, I decided to document their assignment. Enjoy.
Adrian mock-slides down the half-pipe while his comrades immortalise the moment.
Bel Canto video clips

in events, in the news, links, music
My write-up on Bel Canto’s “A Night at the Movies” is in PostMag today yesterday. PostMag is still not online so I’m not going to bother linking. Since I have video clips from the night and I need a reason to update the blog this week, here’s a look at what you missed.
- Bel Canto – As Time Goes By
- Bel Canto – Into The West
- Bel Canto – Les Miserables – Video 1 / Video 2
- Wong Wye Yi – Video 1 / Video 2
I should add that my camera’s video settings are wonky. The image and sound isn’t in synch. Hope your synapses don’t backfire on you.
If you have not heard of Kaki Kuching, this is probably a good time for me to plug it again since I just updated the layout.
Kaki Kuching is an event blog for the arts & entertainment scene in Kuching, fuelled by people who are more or less “in the know”.
We like classical concerts, independent films, art exhibitions and performance poetry. We support acts and shows in most shapes and forms (unless it’s shaped like a reality TV show and formed like an over-rated pop star).
We support local talent now, instead of waiting until they’ve made their fame elsewhere and pretending we’ve always been behind them.
You like culture? Come and get it. Better yet, get out there and make it happen.
