Clarke Quay never seems to be a name that rings a bell but then the other clubs are equally boring to me for the longest time. But occasionally I do enjoy the loud thundering musics performed by the live bands, be it local or foreign. Strangely, Singapore once had many Filipino bands but recently there was a switch to local bands... Are we adopting the GET SINGAPORE BRAND attitude.
Living the life of a post holiday blue in MEL and still in a dilemma I took up and invitation for dinner at PUMPED room, Clarke Quay. Food was good and price is quite affordable. I opted for a COD fish, my all time fav and a pine of wheat ale ( happy hour till 8pm ) you get one 4 one. Dinner is served and snap snap.... my colleague, blogger friend and food connoisseur was busy taking pictures as usual.
Starters is served and ta da..... my fav grilled baby octopus which reminds me of Greece. Oh man I long to go back there. I must say the company was quite good and the food is excellent too. I was told the live band is good but me being NOT a clubbing person was clueless about the latest band in town and who's who.
Well, moments and seconds between meals there were SMS exchanges between P and me... he was upset again. I tried cheering him up but then I asked myself at times, who am I do that. We are just colleagues and maybe "good" friend. An that's the excuse I gave myself to prevent me having any further emotions for P.
10.45pm..The band started playing... and this lead singer caught my attention. He/She or it.. seems to be always smiling and full of confident. That's the way to go man.... his voice is beautiful and full of character too. I enjoyed the night and stayed for 3 sets of the band's performance. Very unlike me but that I thought I was rather unpredictable at times....
