The Great Audio Experience : First Live Outdoor Gig for Black Diamond Ninjas

May 29th 2010 marks another chapter in the history of Black Diamond Ninjas, It was the first outdoor live gig for HPB 's Great Audio Experience at Plaza Singapura.


We were one of the 5 bands performing. We were also the only band with the B&W picture.

The song list as follows...

1) Sweet Child Of Mine
2) Here Without You



3) Don't Speak
4) Intro Medley (Are you gonna go my way+Smells like teen spirit+Seventh Nation Army+Beat it)
5) New Divide



6) Free Without You (Original written for the event)

It was a fun gig, mistakes was made here and there, but overall I think it was quite a good one... Hated the sound system though....and I was sweating buckets.

Interesting Facts about this gig:

a) This is the first time the band is playing an outdoor gig.
b) This gig marks the debut of our new rhythm guitarist Irvin.
c) This is our lead singer Kiyoko's first time fronting Black Diamond Ninjas in a full electric gig.
d) This is the first time she used her own mic.
e) This is the first time the bassist sweated so much.
f) This is the first time the drummer debuted with a mexican hat.
g) We played everything faster then normal
h) The drummer Mark had 2 Red Bull before the performance, which explains point g
i) We ROCKED

Special thanks to Victor Tan for hooking us up and making this possible and of course Huishan for the wonderful photos taken...She was the professional lah.

And of course all who came down.... Love to thank each and eveyone of you personally...

I think you guys did a great job for "Free Without You". Maybe less cover in the future and more original songs. :)
