Bass and band~

It's my 661th post and after two whole years of waiting and never-ending saving, I can finally say..

I AM BUYING MY BASS TOMORROW~!

I went to Bentley's just now and tried out this bass that was RM790. It was actually pretty okay and not at all sucky. It wasn't THAT heavy and the neck wasn't THAT fat and I think I could actually handle it pretty well (I'm not talking about playing, okay). So I decided on that and we all decided that we're gonna get it tomorrow!

It's red~! Nice shiny red! I'm thinking of what to name it now. XD You know I name everything I own. Including my pillows!

I'm so happy~! It's not an ESP. It's an Ibanez. I really want an ESP but I think I'll wait for awhile. It's better to have a bass than no bass, isn't it?

But something very bad happened...
I found out I can't play in front of people!!! (Nothing I never knew)
When testing out the bass, SJ told me to play the Cage solo, and I CAN PLAY IT! But, with her standing in front of me, watching me play, I actually just couldn't play. I really couldn't play it at all. I remembered the frets but my fingers won't move.
This is very bad for somebody who's dying to be on stage, you know.

I bought more picks today. XD I'm a sucker for picks. I bought the Ibanez picks with the butterflies on it! It's damn nice. I really want the flower ones. I'll go get it tomorrow. XD

Talks of the band has come up. More people. And we need to talk.
As in, US! The CURRENT members of Excentrique~ (Our band is now called Excentrique, by the way)
