Von Torappu Trio

Sharon - Pianist/Bassist, Yvonne - Vocalist & Melina - Guitarist/ Percussionist

once again i attended a gig by aristo's sisters.. this isn't like the gig from last week's though.. it was held at Bangkok Jazz.. they call themselves Von Torappu Trio.. made from a 3 piece.. they played 20 songs throughout the night (and an additional 2 songs after the crowd screamed for an encore).. they did a few covers in japanese.. one of which is by Bird (a japanese solo artist), and others like jamiroquai, moloko, portishead, cranberries, yeah yeah yeahs.. and others whom i can't remember.. ;p

an addional member to the band - Savy - Violinist

during the second set, the band grew into a 4 piece.. throughout the performance, the crowd cheered & clapped in awe.. after the last song was performed, the crowd seemed disappointed at the fact that the musical night has come to an end.. some one from the crowd screamed "encore! play me a love song coz i think i'm in love with u..!" err.. haha.. and the crowd burst into laughter.. it was nice of the band to perform 2 bonus songs, 1 of them being Fallin' by Alicia Keys.. once again, as expected, vyonne was able to pull it off.. *clap clap clap*

garf, aristo & mag (aristo's hometown friend)

and as a tradition, i approached the girls to have a picture taken together.. i put on a smile, like usual, hoping that there was nothing in my demeanour that suggested i was a crazy fanatic..

of course aristo had to be squeezed in within the camera frame too! after all, she grew up playing Rumah, Masak-masak & Tahi with the girls beside her..

wahey! the world just gets smaller.. bumped into an old friend, michelle, who happens to know aristo's sister..

oh, i'm just so thrilled.. here's a video clip of a japanese song they performed.. there are a few others recorded.. i would bombard those in a later post because it takes very, very, very, very, very, very, very long to upload..
