The Trials, Victories & Adventures of Los PaulOS

There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love. ~ 1 John 4:18

We're excited to play at this wedding man. But suddenly, I'm also scared. There are a couple of songs that we've not got down to pad. So we're actually gonna wing it.

I had the final list of songs with me, but it's at home.. I'll post it up later.
We're tentatively playing 4 sets with 2 songs by the groom's brother and cousin.
The groom will be playing keyboards for those 2 songs.
"You're the Inspiration" & "When You Tell Me That You Love Me"

The studio-jam pictures are being sent to me just as I blog by our faithful "groupie" Adie, beautiful, demure and faithful wife to Chris McKhoo.

A list of the gigs Chris and I have played at are:

Chris & Adie's wedding - September 2000, Holiday Villa Subang
Kieran & Audrey's wedding - 2001, JW Marriot
Colin & Amy - 2002 - East In Hotel
Mike & Anita - 2003 - KL Mutiara

    Vagus, I know you got a thing for "hairy legs" but sure are not gonna touch my hairy legs dude.

    I'll have a "knee-jerk" reaction before you even touch my leg.. uh huh.. if you understand what I mean. *dush*

    Siew Ann.. hmmm.. I dunno where she worked before.. Never did really ask her, Sekhar kept hiding her from us for the longest time until it was too late for us to "kau" her from him.. *grin*

    So now it's too late she's getting married. *sigh*

    Yes .. and musical.. where's the CV? it'd make for an interesting blog.. what's your "Courting CV"?
