Kardinal offishall was relatively smooth other than a few technical glitches. And I'm very excited to see Peter step into a new realm of opportunity with this international debut. It was fairly evident from the 'show stress' that he was under the hammer and even though there were certain challenges in the event, it was a very appealling show. Kardinal and solitaire (his emcee wingman) were supreme emcees indeed. I can learn alot by taking a page from these hiphop artists in terms of engaging the audience. We will certainly have (several) beers soon Pete
I managed to catch Meza virs at the main stage at Baybeats - the mixing was a tad off from where I was standing but I was sure those in the moshpit could appreciate the elemental savagery that Cedric and gang projected. Lauren was a nice gimmick; dragging and whipping him after a costume change. I particularly enjoyed "In Darkness I betray" - could not stay long as I had to head back to DXO and my dear companion found the contrast between live metal and a hip hop show rather amusing methinks
Chris Choi is back in town from England. Looking forward to catching up with him on thursday - due to my insane schedule I could not have a decent conversation with him. Rather lamentatble on my part, as I was trying to play the good host (I failed). Its sad yet endearing to see that he has found sanctuary in his travels. If only he stayed on to be part of SDAM, we might have seen some degree of development that is missing in this picture.

Some people promise overtures of passion, glory and affection yet deliver none while others wait in silence with true salvation awaiting. Some people indulge in intimacy and accessibility, but at the hour of need, they are no where to be found. Yet others show restraint and compassion - when the time calls, they will be up in arms.
Contrast abounds.
