Time to rock it out

so we're down to the last 1 week before I head out to Melbourne then go to Kuala Lumpur for shows for a whole month! This stuff excites me but also makes me try to pre-plan 1 month ahead which is really, really draining.

So last night we had an awesome Viveknfriends Cantonese comedy show with our brand spanking new audio and light set up. Other than a few issues here and there (thank you ToaBao lights for breaking down on me), it was a very high quality production I must say.

Other than with my band guys and our band room, this has to be the highest production I've done Audio and Visual-wise ever in terms of shows.

And to give you a sense of how fun our show was, here's a 360 degree photo courtesy of fellow comedian Seamus Yim:




And with that, I can only say, in the next 10 days, I'll be in Melbourne!
And in case it doesn't load for you, here's a direct link.  So let's see how much madness I can get through before I get to treat myself to a nice crepe before hustling the crap out of myself to get people to watch our show!

Have fun!

Then last mile begins

Well, it's time. I'm down to my last 2 weeks in Hong Kong before heading off to Melbourne for the comedy festival and plunging into the super high risk world of having Cantonese comedy shows nightly for 2 weeks.
That means I have to do every single thing I need to physically be present at done or else everything will have to wait for a month before it can happen (at least still having me involved that is).

The cool thing is, having done this a few years, I know pretty much what to expect and can be pretty well prepared for it, but it still is tough being out of Hong Kong for 3 whole weeks.

On the other hand, a lot of progress this year. My fitness has improved (yay finally!) and I'm snatching 40kgs (ie. 10kg plates on each side) which again is a record for me and probably a warm up for others...ahah.

My work is going well, got a few projects I need to sort out, but comedy-wise, we just invested in the Yamaha DBR-10s so we no longer have to be limited by whatever crappy speakers venues have. A huge investment in both money and also figuring out how the hell I'm going to store it as well as move it to the shows each time lol.

Otherwise, I literally have nothing to say (maybe I'm just a bit mentally exhausted...)

Well enjoy your next 10 days!
