"Stellar Memory" EP Launch album Experience ROCKS!!!

Hey guys,

whats happening?

I was back from an awesome
"Stellar Memory" EP Launch album
concert launch at *SCAPE Youth Centre.
It was totally an awesome, touching
and crazy experience I had.

As a band, Stellar Memory is tight with good
balance of sound between each instruments
(which I find lacking in some local rock bands....
like drums totally drowning the guitars etc...
thats why listening to each band
member in a band is important). I especially
like the various interesting chords...and harmony
which were used in the songs. They even had
guest violist and keyboardist in action!!!

Their stage presence is electrifying!
They had the audience singing together with them.
With so much energy and drive in them on stage
makes me feel so young lol...although I am not
in my teens.

With touching moments like Cliff (on-off boyfriend drummer)
proposal to his girlfriend and confessing love
from Ernie guitarist with love songs, my jaw just literally dropped!

Btw I want to thank the guys
for mentioning my name to thank on the
stage. U guys really caught me by surprise!

If u guys haven't catch them live,
u should listen to their music
online and buy their EP!!!

Not to forget to thank the ever shy singer
song-writer For this cycle and guest lady musicians
cum percussionist Cove Red for their
wonderful vocal harmony and soothing chill music
with soft beats... .

In the meanwhile, I am going to
enjoy Stellar Memory music
rocking my way in my room.

Lol...its strange...really I am
not a typically rocker man but
who cares? When it comes to music,
good music is meant to be appreciated
in my eyes.

It is a creative competition for

are advised to enter in groups or
‘bands’ of 3, are to simply
record videos of themselves
playing a song from video game
‘Band Hero’.

These videos will
need to be submitted to the
“Rock Gods Fraternity”
group page on Facebook,
where they seek support
from online viewers and ‘fans,’
which will contribute to the
bands’ qualification for the finals.

The finals of the Rock Gods
Tournament will require these
teams to showcase their skills on
Zirca’s stage playing pre-selected
songs on “Band Hero”. One of the
latest releases in the popular Guitar H
ero series.

Band Hero is a console game that
allows players to simulate their favourite
bands by playing instruments
like drums, bass, guitar as well as vocals.

The best band, decided by a panel of judges
will win $1,000 in cash and an Xbox 360
DJ Hero Renegade Edition bundle worth $339!

Runners up win an Xbox 360 DJ Hero
bundle worth $199 + exclusive DJ Hero
t-shirt and Xbox 360 Tony Hawk: RIDE

Winners will be selected based on technical skills,
entertainment value and also overall styling!
Air Guitar Superstar

For the individuals, “Air Guitar Superstar” is
the opportunity to showcase your amazing
guitar skills without fret(s). Win $500 by
being the best performer of the imaginary
guitar solos .

The chosen finalists, whose online
support will contribute to their advancement,
will battle it out at Zirca’s during the party to
their self-chosen one-minute long excerpt of
songs. Winners will be picked by a panel
of judges, as well as the audience which will
‘voice’ their preference using their screams
and applause.

The winner of this competition walks away
with $500 cash and a whole lot of screaming fans!
