Free Love rocks and the crowd love them. Harmacy on track to stardom.Riuh is a total riot at mosh pit.Khottal blew me away with their performance. Khottal, hail from Malacca  consist quite a large number of band member remind me to Arcade Fire and Social Broken Scene. Muck rocks too. I love the new songs “Local Trash heroes”.

 

Revenge a Glam Rock outfit from Central Market scene tries hard to impress the crowd as many of them starting to slow down after rocking hard with oddity,The Times and Couple.They are not bad.the vocalist reminds me to jack black from tenascious D

The most anticipated band for that day for me is bloody Mary. Heavily influence by Seattle music formed in year 1999 and disbanded on 2002 these are one of biggest indie band in Ipoh at that time. The band set list are

Waterfall

Beautiful Wednesday

Behind The Tears

Take Me To her

 

The band finished in style. It is not enough for the fans. Crowds waiting anxiously for the band to do an encore. Shah, the keyboardist and drummer came forward and apologize for not fulfilling the fans request as they are short on practice.

Last but not least the  Hot shot from KL , Bunkface take over the stage.The Crowd goes wild as the bunk athnem start playing
