Sorry for not updating for a long time.
Both of us have been really busy.

I'm still selling tickets for several events though.
I do send infos of gigs/parties/concerts through SMSes.
Do add me at dy_diyanah@hotmail.com (MSN/Facebook) first, if you wish to receive the SMSes. (:
Event organizers can also contact me through the same email if you're looking for ticket distributors.

Happy New Year to all!

NOTE.

2009-04-04T13:46:00.003+08:00

Hey, okay this is going to be a really quick say about our tagboard critics and maybe other critics out there that have a lot to say about V-enn-V.

Purpose of vnv-blackbook:
- just a mere update on gigs at random
- helping to promote local music
- expand bands/performers.

We are aware that there is called a site soft.com.sg but, this is just an alternative for people to get hooked up a lot easier without even signing up. we're not breaking any law or order. in fact, we're helping out bands promoting their gigs, selling tickets and etc. any gig put up in this blog is under permission.

We have adorable supporters and when there are supporters, it would always be paired with critics. so as a whole, we regard this as part and parcel of all blogs.

Another point to note, we do go to gigs but it's up to our choices to come for one gig or the other instead. so please hold your loathsome comments to yourself. Come on, we're all similar in a way that we all support local music. so let's just stick to that. peace!

2009-03-30T14:42:00.004+08:00

SEARCHING FOR BAND MEMBERS !!

Ska-Ska-Ska

Searching for dudes or dudettes who can play the HORNS

If you own a trumpet or a trombone or a sax, and you fancy Ska upbeats and smooth Basslines,contact abbyphantom@live for more information.

A MEGA SKA SEARCH has been put up just for ska-fans!

You've got the Steady Moving Beat,
influence ranges from popular 2-Tone records and a slight pinch of Ska-Punk.

Technically no GIG/CONCERT (performing) experience YET!

SO if the HORNS are in, we're going FORWARD into performing. ACE!

So once again, those out there who play the Horns, email Abby aitez?
