Christmas!

Christmas is in 6 days! Do you know what this means?

It means that Christmas is practically here already! We should all go order Land of JY Christmas cards to send and create Land of JY clay figurines! The librarians should also distribute Christmas scores!

Notes: This is a random post too!

Concert was well done: Chun Yin

Hello. Ok, I know this post is late by a day... but oh well was at someone's house last night so... Ok ok so I didn't go home.

All I can say for the concert is, well done!

For the evening show, I really heard an orchestra that certainly dazzled our audience and left many others with vivid memories. And just like how we bragged in our sponsorship and group purchase forms, we really played magnificent music, so I am very sure Mr Yeo is proud of us. Our concert is titled 源; we remember how we got to what we are today and who helped us acheive our current standard. So for all the self praising that we might have for ourselves, please also remember that we would not and cannot be what we are today if not for our teachers and instructors (and conductor, who is really very important in this concert) who have been assisting and guiding us towards playing magnificent music. I hope you guys can take time off to thank your instructors, be it for their teaching in ordinary sectionals or their extraordinary effort to go the extra mile for extra practice for your own sake. And like Mr Lim Kiong Pin said, some of your instructors didn't have to come on the concert date itself to help you tune backstage or run through your pieces one last time so that you perform your very best. It won't hurt too much to say a little 'thank you' or write a thank you card, perhaps on behalf of everyone in your section, and im very sure teachers like it when their efforts are appreciated.

So here I would like to express many thanks to the following people for their hardwork put in for the concert: Ms Lim and Mr Chong, our teacher-in-charge, for taking care of all the general things and guiding us along,
Publicity comm, for your hardwork in getting sponsors and group purchase, especially Gilbert Soh, Eugene, Patrick, Hong Bo, Sng Zheng, Samuel, and etc for your hardwork in getting ticket sales!
Wenqiang, Qingyu, Yuchen, for your great work in design comm. (Our poster is marvelous, I heard that from two people already.)
Logistics comm, for your effort on that day itself and preparation as well, specifically Jun Sean, Shaun Ee, very responsible logistics and backstage ICs, you two made the concert run very smoothly. And stagehands and emcees!
Alumni and guest performers, thanks for saving the day when RICO was desperate for people! Yee Siang for being a hardcore ticketing IC! =)
Advertising comm! Ben Aw, Sng zheng, yee siang etc.
COncert booklet: Jeremy, renyan!
Overall IC: Renyan =) for overall icing and doing a lottt of work!
Reception: Shujian!
Food IC: Jinghua!

If I have left out anybody... im sorry... but don't blame me coz im feeling very sleepy now =.=, so in a nutshell, Thanks everybody for making our concert a success.

Lastly, since we work hard, we must play hard too!, and since we learnt to hardcore, we must learn to slack! Somewhere next year, we'll have a celebratory party ok? =)

Rock on, guys.

The Template!

Eek! Just as I changed the template, a whole host of content once hidden by the lousy rhapsody template manifested itself! Check out the CO photos! The list of tanbo people! The links section! (Which is outdated and needs to be updated.) Some other extra links! The music! And the waaay better archive! So after I fuse the good stuff from the old tanbo blog into this new shell and add a better template, this tanbo blog will reach the zenith of tanbo-blogness!

Makeover

The tanbo blog is undergoing an extreme makeover! The biggest change is the template, but it is meant to be just temporary, as the blog's platform is upgraded. Everything will stabilize soon.

Eugene!

The CO member of this week is... Eugene! Eugene is the new tanbo SL for next year (Quite a low profile one though.) and a pipa player! He plays the erhu too, I think. And that's all I can put about Eugene, but maybe others can add more! to this post!



Isn't this picture such a great one? Someone called JY took it.

TANbo rhapsody, the tanbo blog.

I wonder how many of us (tanbo members) actually frequently check this blog for updates. Well not that there have been any recently, but well being the Tanbo blog, I really hope that can come a day where we can tell of our pride and passion of being Tanbo members. (I know what you're thinking, its like: "errrrrrrrrr...") But anyway, blogs can prove to be quite useful especially when dissiminating information, and lessen workload for our beloved SL.

So, eh, what are you gonna do about it? That we're not visiting our own blog.

Ok, lets start a fun WHO KNOWS THE SECRET PASSWORD GAME, shall we?

If Eugene randomly asks you for the secret password, and you don't know the secret password, you die. Ok, if you don't wanna die you play Jingle Bells on your instrument. And sing along. (Or actually any other random piece that Eugene might favor, since hes King).

This week's secret password is: I DON'T KNOW THE SECRET PASSWORD

Eh ok SHHH don't go round telling. Its secret. And besides you would want to see your friends getting tortured by playing Jingle Bells. So lets see you next Sectionals on Wednesday at 2pm with the Secret password I guess.

Bye,
I-must-be-so-sleepy-to-spout-all-these-rubbish.
