Syed, the Butter Maniac

Syed was the bassist in the cover band I was part of during our National Service last night. He introduced me to a band that will forever change my perception of the local music scene.

This band was.. the Butterfingers.

Strange how it became a snare to me during my days in NS. Reading my Bible was hard because the song "Faculties of the Mind" kept playing in my head.

And now things are different. I hear it in my head, but it no longer distracts me the way it used to. Now it's like elevator music.

I like it, and most don't.

But it's just in the background, to add some colour to my every day. ;)

Thanks Syed, old buddy.

P.S. I've started a Bintang 3 cell in Kedah. My main blog is now the webpage for the "Gunung Jerai" Bintang 3 cell.
