Yuki's Birthday

Was invited to my fav socialite and resident hot mama's big birthday bash Yuki Lange last Friday. Her very cool and large pad down in Chatsworth even has a pin ball machine in the living room!!!! Yuki had invited more than a few friends that we all mutually knew for dinner. Very excellent food....150 bottles of champagne.....and a guest list that the Tatler would be proud of! Of course in full attendance was Phillip from Tatler and good friend Benedict Goh, our very own resident pro-driver, Hafiz Koh who came with Christina Liang...of course we had a long bevy of lovely ladies...Felicia, Ning, Jamie, Lyndnn and a long list of other rich and famous. The company was certainly excellent and the conversation, well.......interesting to say the least. Anyway...to cap a excellent nite out on the town, we headed to check out my first Friday at Thumper where we bumpped into Boon and Alexis, Patrick, Edwin, KC and his lady love. The start of what I am sure is gonna be a great weekend!

Something cool this way comes......

A few weeks ago I heard rumbles of a very interesting party that is supposed to take place on 8 Sep 2007....and of course I had to make it my business to get myself a few invites! Well...on the eve of a new turn in my life.......the secret is out. Amex has come up with a plan for something very different. A series of parties and events for the very elite. And the first of them will be held on at the Emerald Hall down on Siloso Beach. Apparently it promises to be quite something out of this world. We got DJ Papp and Morrison in da house....backed up with Angela Flame (I can remember those days of her in Mohd Sultan!!!). Another well loved face that will be there will be my old friend Tabla Maniam. Well well.....I certainly haven't heard his beats in quite a while and I am certainly looking forward to a good nite out on the town indeed! Well....brace yourself folks......looks like the party continues with Amex joining in the purveyors of fun soon! The word is out....and do make sure you are amongst the very elite that get the invites! Looks like this weekend is gonna be a real busy one......APEC, Tempus, Jonny's Birthday....of course L.I.V.E. PLATINUM....Urban Beach Party......I hope my liver can last!

LUSH Party with Chivas!

Thats right...how could I miss this one! It was the Lush party sponsored by my great boys from Chivas and it was a blast! We were back at the National Museum in Muse Bar for this one and as you would expect, with all the Chivas flowing, I had a great time! Jeremy and Elaina were there of course together with Chris Ho, Boon's partner from Indonesia Satia,....and of course Bernard and more of the usual suspects! They had a really interesting giant size Martini glass of vodka jelly's and finger food that was quite good! Must say a big thank you to Brandon for his hospitality! Oh...also must really try keep the booze intake in check though....had a splitting headache from a big nite out on the town...as usual!!! (Hmmm...I think I have said this repeatedly before though......oh well....CHEERS!!!)

Solitaire Nite @ Novus

Solitaire Magazine had their anniversary party at Novus Restuarant and Bar on a Tuesday nite out on the town so Felicia and myself headed down to check it out. Was quite a interesting little party with a rather interesting crowd of mainly industry people. Caught Christina Liang there together with Sulian and Julian as well as connected with Maxime Labey who has now moved to Chopard from Jager. The party had a disctinct lack of food so we hooked up with Rosemary and headed to Timbre to catch up with our new partner Danny and enjoy their excellent pizza's! YUMMMMM!

Just in case you guys think all I do is have a life after the sun goes down, I actually do stuff in the day too! Alvin had invited me to participate in the SilkAir Monopoly Challenge so off I went on a Sat afternoon to play a game I haven't touched in more than 15 years! Well...playing against 3 young bucks was sure interesting....I found out that some of them play it day and night online actually...but of course, you cannot beat age and experience over being young and energetic and I happily kicked ass! Actually, I came in 10th out of the 1000 participants on the heats so I was invited back the next day to compete against the top 16! Well...it sure was exciting as we were told all 16 of us were assured of winning a pair of tickets to somewhere! Well...had to drag my ass down to Ngee Ann at 10 am for a 12.30 heat.....and played on a board that was 50 m X 50 m!!! Was quite fun throwing the huge dice!! Hahahaha! I got off to a quick start bagging the 3 purples and building first....but unfortuantely didn't sitck to my game plan to get the reds or yellow's and ended up hitting 2 red hotels that knocked me out of the game. Oh well...at least I got a pair of tickets to Cebu!!! Overall a good day that ended up at night out on the town!!

Conrad's Birthday

What can I say about Conrad but he is sure DA MAN! When he throws a party everyone turns up! And now he is involved with this interesting Lychee Vodka thing with Shannon, it even gets more interesting! As expected the whole tribe turned up, Amanda before she left for Europe, David Furman-Lim...forgot Christabelle Campbell's name who is our 3rd runner up in Miss World (I am still wondering how I got to know her from way back when....) Belle, Andrea Fonseka...and alot of booze! Of course we moved to MoS later where we caught up with Michael and Stanley who introduced me to their good friend from Hong Kong Lambert who is in a similar business as me and who I am hooking up with! Shawn also turned up.....and it all turned out to be a long long big big nigt out on the town....man...this is getting to be too hard!! Hahahaha!

Velvet turns 16!!!

Yep...Velvet turns sweet 16 and of course we had to make a presence there. George had secured a table with Chou and eventually we all turned up to soak in the atmosphere. All the boys were there with the exception of our dear old friend Victor Sujanani. Belle, Stephanie, Jerome, Jacq....and all the other boys. Shawn got so smashed it was quite funny!!! Was still very tired and recovering from SINGfest but none the less we had a ball of the time and as you would expect, a big nite out on the town in my home gound, Velvet!! Also managed to catch old friends Mike Kasem from my MTV days as well as Vernetta Lopez who is getting married to Wayne the pool hustler....all good...all old friends...all a big nite out!!!

SINGfest 2007 in Pictures..

Thats right.....it wasn't quite a nite out on the town but more like a whole week! SINGfest 07 finally starts after weeks of preparation and of course I was in the thick of things. For this festival, my job was to clear all the bands at the airport and get them on their way to the hotels as well as do all the other logistic work such as security, transport, promotions and marketing and all the other little bits and pieces. It was a mamoth undertaking.....16 bands.....and some of them were my all time fav's! Pet Shop Boys, Cindi Lauper, Sugar Ray, Shaggy, The Stranglers, Sasha Bach Band, Hinder, MXPX, Avenged Sevenfold, Gym Class Hero's, The Noisettes, Cobra Starship, Crowned Kings, One Buck Short and local boys Great Spy Experiment! My only complaint is that I only got to see a little of Shaggy's set and Gym Class Hero's set on the second day. But I got to spend great time with some of the fantastic artiste....dinner with Cindi Lauper at Il Lido, pictures with Shaggy, Pet Shop Boys, Mark McGraw...and all the other bands...it was a wild rocking ride with little or no sleep...not much food...but what a show! Kudos to the team, Michael, Mel, Peter, Sunder....and the girls, Adeline, Elaine, Natalyn who took on two bands, EV, Crystal and of course Claris. I do wonder why I subject myself to this sometimes but I doing this biz is like a drug. Once you hear the thousands of people screaming and rocking to the tunes, its a unbelieveable high! Oh well.....next stop...Black Eye Peas!
