Went to see Charles play, finally, at Blujaz Café yesterday. It was raining so damn heavily, and we didn't know our way, that our friend who was supposed to be late got there like 20min before us...

A bassist, a guitarist, a soprano saxaphonist. What can I say? They were wonderful. Charles' Telecaster was beautiful, nice sound too. The saxist was really good, maybe it's because he was live, but I thought Kenny G was crap compared to him when he played Kenny G's song (forgot the title, Songbird I think). I was recording but I think our voices spoilt the whole thing. Especially Liau Chuan En's......

The two songs I knew that Charles sang was Summertime and Nature Boy, and they were wonderful. The bass-sax guitar-sax improvisations were also wonderful.

Just after I warned Chuan En not to make a fuss, I was trying to order rum coke with a straight face when he said loudly, 'You're ordering what with your food??' and I glared at him, and said 'That would be all ^^.' It was probably nothing, but I know why people drink after a tiring day at work. It felt really good to just have alcohol in your bones. Blood. Whatever.
