Hey pals,

We will not be performing for the Thumper Bar gig. Check us out at doubleyellowline:inhabitant instead, please!

New Song Update! Acoustic Version of ILS.

Hey Ari, Ais, Louey and all you listeners of ArPee!

The acoustic version of Interstellar Love Song is out! If you know us, you could ask for the song via MSN. Otherwise you could leave us a tag and we'll see how we can send you the song! The doodleboard's up, so there's no excuse that you're too lazy or that you don't have a Blogger account. :)

What happened to Faizal, don't stop leaving tags leh. Eh I don't mind helping you mark books you know. Haha I think marking books are fun!

jam again sometime soon?.. i got like 1 new song frm 'finch'. gd one to break cymbals and sticks, ari to go timeless head bobbing, ihsan to go screaming n eve to scratch her epiphone with. drop me a nice letter.

We're finally going to jam. We're still aliiiiive..

[SMP] Auld Lang Syne

I hope i spelled it correctly. But it's ok. I never knew what it really meant. Should old acquaintance be forgot and never brought to mind? What's that supposed to mean. If we're gonna forget that old acquiantance, how can it be remotely possible for us to remember that we have forgotten that particular old acquaintance. You dun go about living your days saying, "Damn, i nearly forgot about Peter!" or.. "I absolutely forgot about David!" or what have you.

Oh well, enough of my rants. I believe ArPee is currently working on a few songs. Let's not limit our scope to just 2 now shall we? And yes, work has taken a toll on us. We're now haggardly and tired. But it's money well earned. And hopefully well spent. And louis, i will take up your offer and be more than happy to be earning some money whilst jamming a song.

Have a happy new year people!

I pay homage to the people who got washed away by the tsunamis. And u know what's the worst thing that can ever happen to a musical career of a particular band and also an events organiser? Well, if the organisers had slated the band Tsunami Bomb to perform all over south east asia. just a thought to myself that i somehow felt like sharing.

Once again, i pay homage to those who perished in those waves.

We'll never know why
So many innocents had to die
But i promise you
That we'll all meet again underneath these plastic skies.

yesterday was a yr ago..

ArPee

ArPee

what work?..

been running away from all forms of work

work's really bad for health

money's really not an issue

60,000 people have died

that's an issue

hope we're going back to making noise soon..

The members of ArPee have been busy working. This may seem demoralising, but in actual fact we are building up team rapport among the band and earning money!

How will this benefit YOU, the listener?

Our earnings will go under careful expenditure; investment in jamming and recording sessions and the like. This means songs with better sound quality JUST FOR YOU.

More reasons to come in the next entry! Meanwhile, please remember that we love each and every one of you. We'd love to update the blog as often as we could but work and school has been taking a toll on all of us.

We've got 2 new songs in construction and they're going to blow you away even more, though. Can't wait to see you guys at Thumper Bar!

Ahh, finally a band blog update from anyone but Ari and I. Yes, Ais you have good taste in music. I wouldn't mind doing a cover of Intramural. It'd be as tough as hell though. And Chelsea Logue's so pretty!!!! If I ever meet her I'll go lesbian and date her HAHAHAHAA.

The bassist is a nut. Six strings man; if I ever meet him I'll go back to being a girl and date him HEEHEEHEEEE. And steal his bass and be a normal person again.

We're a cool band. WE ARE STILL THE COOLEST BAND!! HYUK HYUK.

[SMP] Renegades Of Punk

Hello people this is Jon. Finally got the set up for the music player right..so what are you waiting for?!! Click on the play button and start listening to ArPee's Plastic Skies. After some thought, it is one of the first songs that the band worked on. So..yeap, i hope you guys enjoy it just as much as Ihsan likes to statically charge his nipples.

[SMP] Turn Back

Hello there! This is Johnny Jon Jon here! Updating yet again for my absent band members who are very much busy with their school stuff! Anyways, i was surfing the net and....wow!! Somebody actually reads this blog! Now that's a confirmation! Hahaz! Thanks! *ahem* let me quote what she quoted what i quoted during the AFUA show.

saw hj's friend claryce..hohoho. and a hot babe that looks like noelle.

anw the band performing was damn funny and funky I LIKE IT. this red johnny jon jon guitarist keep getting so high by himself and lets name some quotes from him,

johnny jon jon: "hey i have a relation with taufik batisah. i have NO relation with him"
johnny jon jon: "when i say BLOW, i want you all to say JOB"

and he said some brainteaser too but no one got it and no one answered him so he brushed past it and went on to introduce his band.

and they play good rocking music -thumbs up!-

and this girl member in the band was i think pointing to me on stage and asking whether i was what weikang?!?! gave me a big shock.. and after their performance, the red guitarist came up to us and asked if we enjoyed it and yah nice guy.

anyway the band's call ARPEE. can go take a look at their blog --> http://arpee.blogspot.com


Cool right? Wah!! Piang eh!! There were people out there who appreciated my humour!! Hahaz! And to think i nearly swore myself to silence on stage!!

Oh yeap, here's my recap of the AFUA show! It wasn't the tightest of sets but i sure did had alot of fun! Especially whipping the crowd into a frenzy with the word game! They were like asking for blowjobs!! Ok..not specifically... But...great! the crowd was really enthusiastic! I hope we get such a response from the next gig at the Thumper Bar!

Anyways, for all of you who actually read this blog, i have written a couple of new songs that the band will work on and will probably perform at least 1 for our next show. The latest that i wrote takes a dark and gothic approach. As compared to the three happy go lucky tuned songs that i wrote. So that's it from me i suppose. That means the band will be working on five new tunes! There's Different Worlds, Turn Back, Earthgrazer, Somewhere Beyond and Angel's Eulogy.

Angel's Eulogy is really a song about a kid who's giving up on life. I've decided to take a break from my usual writing style and strike out on a path less travelled by myself. It's really fun i must say. But depressing!

The rest of them are just typical me songs. I realised that everyone likes a part of my songs but not every single one of em? i safely conclude that maybe someday when i'm that damn good, i'm gonna release an album of my own. Johnny's greatest hits! 1 song with everybody's favourite verse or chorus crammed into it. Oh well..

Ok so there u have it people, a band update! Anyways, i'm collecting emails to add into our mailing list, if you're interested, just mail me at stuck_forever@yourass.com . I will add you to our ever growing mailing list! Last i counted, we had 200 over people on the list! So..join the ArPee band wagon and get those pee vats filled!

I leave you guys with a sample of Turn Back.

Turn back the time
Back to those days
When i enthralled your mind

We could watch the stars
Rise against and
Change the milky ways

MOO MOO! MOOOO!!

Hey pals!

Sorry for the lack of updates, we've just been real busy trying to perfect our songs and all! Eeeep, so excited for tomorrow. It will not rain. IT WILL NOT RAIN! :) Anyhows, even if it rains I'll put away my guitar and dance in the rain like a mad cow.



I'm just kidding, really.

Hey pals. Was back quite a while ago, sorry I haven't been updating.

All the hype about our first gig has probably died down, so we're going to revive your spirits with yet another gig! We're hoping it won't rain, cause we are so going to rock your asses till the seats will burn and you'll have no choice but to stand up and dance on the stage with us. You all know you're most welcome to do so.

So bring your packets of bee hoon and cans of beer to the Youth Park! We still have yet to find out who we'll be performing with; we'll update you asap yeap!

SO HERE GOES! THE MOMENT YOU'VE BEEN WAITING FOR!

Event: ORCHARD JAM!
Venue: Youth Park
Date: December 11, Saturday
Time: 4pm

Our song lineup is not confirmed yet. Nevertheless, I reiterate that it is going to be a kickass show so it doesn't really matter NOW DOES IT!!

Many many thanks to AFUA (Arts For Us All), who have put in tons and tons of effort to make this event possible. It's people like Maxine, Jinwei, Ruimin and the rest of the crew who realise the importance of music in Singapore; and who seriously bother to take action. Our hearts go out to you guys. Thank you. :)

Love,
ArPee.
