9.12.2023 (earup show @ tung po)

first time i didnt feel too stressed before the show. it's a bit unfamiliar. probably becos i hav less expectations, and of cos it's also becos i got some internal thinking / emotions sorted out.

the show was 4:30pm, not the best time slot but im glad ppl seem to have enjoyed it. everything went quite smooth. Miso Kachun was impressed. a few young musicians came over to chat n said they reli liked it. sold hkd 8xx of CDs + booklet. not bad for my standard. music part was almost flawless, and i did ok i think. at least enjoyed the stage, tho still some technical mishaps. visual was successful too. paid everyone in the band n the VJ. i think they could've accepted less, but i jus want to show more support n give them what they deserve.

after the set i went to prince edward to meet with ivanhoe about the contemp theatre piece in January 2024. first time "jamming" ideas like that and it felt nice. came up with a few ideas of how to present ideas in a 具象 way, using sounds / music as the tool. he happens to have his new studio right below Hong Ka Chun, dunno if you have visited the place? it's on 1/F, n right below is a huge plant shop with giant pretty plants. i guess u'd really love that place. super high ceiling, some small details which hint the place's historical heritage. a small classy balcony with moody lighting. no elevator, only retro looking staircase. huge giant industrial vibe windows. the space allows for oversized furniture. it just didnt feel very hong kong, more like europe or the states.

still cant help to check ur IG every day. dun mean to disturb tho. just feel like watching gently from a distance i guess. wish u r well. sending u my thots via the air.
