One Night In Ngee Ann City
(ah-dren''ah-lin) epinephrine.
-is an important hormone that is used to prepare the body for emergency situations, eg, by increasing the heart rate. It has widespread effects on circulation, muscles and the provision of energy.
-a natural stimulant that causes increases in the heart's rate and how hard it contracts.
-In adults, current recommendations are for intravenous adrenaline 1 mg (10-15 microgram/kg) to be given immediately and repeated every 3-5 minutes. However, both the American Heart Association and the European Resuscitation Council recognise the theoretical advantages of adrenaline in higher doses (ie 100 microgram/kg) if the initial lower dose fails. In adults, this represents 5-10 mg every 5 minutes.
I know I'm definitely overdosed with Adrenaline/Adrenalin after the 20mins performance at Ngee Ann City on 06 May 2006. The event was Vesak Day Celebration 2006 held by the Singapore Buddhist Federation ..It started with Bryan Wong and Kym Ng introducing the Band, yes, it's us...Black Forest..and Woonyong interrupted their conversation with a hit on the snare.Bryan turned back, making a remark of him being rude before going back to his conversation with Kym.They carry on talking and soon enough, Woonyong hit the snare again...this time twice..haha..Yes we did it on purpose...It was all planned by Bryan though, as a signal that the band is ready and also for some stage effect..And the crowd really thought that Woonyong is disturbing the hosts..haha...And the SHOW begins!!!!
We played Hong Cai Mei Mei (Red ribbon Sister),Kang Kang's version followed by Are you gonna be my girl by Jet then Franz Ferdinand's Take Me Out. By this time, the Adrenaline level in the crowd is about 75% already..It was when Ernest and Iqbal started to sing One Night In Beijing,Shin's version that the crowd's Adrenaline/Adrenalin level was boost to the max!! After which is an Original Composition by Ernest named My Freedom.This song brought the crowd to another level of Estacy!!!The feeling was Totally Awesome!!! From the stage you could see the crowd cheering and moving to the groove, swinging their light sticks to the drum beats...When the Song ended, all we can hear were the Crowd cheers and applause...... We thanked the crowd and prepared to move our instruments to the back of the stage when Bryan stopped us. He requested that we play One Night in Beijing again.. this time, Bryan sang. Cool..Kym tried to sing the Opera part but it was simply too high for her.. But they showed great showmanship! The crowd cheered as well.... Went back to back stage.. still feeling as high...this was the first time I felt this high.....The feeling was what we Singaporean referred as.."SHIOK".....hahaha....
The above is how I feel about the event . We did 3 sets of performance for that day.. with an impressive and most memorable ending..At least to me...I'm sure the rest of Black Forest will also feel the same way as I do.. I would like to take this opportunity to once again Thank the organiser ,Singapore Buddhist Federation, to give us, Black Forest a chance to participate in such a meaningful event and also for the wonderful experience. Next I would like to thank the Band for giving me a chance to perform with them...We shall work together to greater heights!!haha... And Also.. not forgetting Evelyn and Sheena who came for the whole day to help us take video of our performances...Oh yah.. Last but not least, I would like to Thank the most important people, the catalyst for the Adrenaline rush in the Band, the wonderful Responsive and Sporting Crowd!!! You guys were awesome!!!
With that I shall end my long blog with a BIG THANK YOU to all of you, whoever are involved...
Signing off with best regards,
