Review Kuching's Melbourne Shuffle Meetup IV

I finally received the photos from Azlan who's currently finishing his final year Twintech College Sarawak project and he has choose Melbourne Shuffle as his final year project. Wow... it's an honor to have people who has so much passion on Melbourne Shuffling. *Pad on the back*

The plan was to start at 7pm and Sherlee, Nelso & I reached earlier at 6.30pm to buy dinner and drinks at Kuching Festival before the Meetup started. at about 6.50pm, the electricity went out and so we walked quickly to our meetup point and ate our dinner while waiting for the rest. Apparently, i received a lot of smses that the whole Sarawak went blackout and traffic jam was terrible. But the meetup went on coz our oldskool boom box worked on batteries anyway.

Kuching being the famous laid back city, some people started to show up at 7.30pm and by 8.00pm it was just nice with many groups turned up but it was quite dramatic of how the groups either came early and left early or came late and left late.

Whatever it is, Shuffle Meetup are with purposes.. What are the purposes? Well, it's to keep Melbourne Shuffle Healthy and educate the younger generation to keep it on the right path coz it's the scene that build the dance.. not the dance that build the scene. But without a community that dance, there isn't any scene. So the DANCE and the SCENE are both important. You have to keep the dance healthy if you want to keep the scene alive. It is not an easy task to keep it alive and right... but no harm trying people.. You just got to believe it.

.:1st session 7.30pm - 9.30pm (blackout):.

.:2nd session 9.30pm - 11pm (no more blackout):.

Best part is Clement my reggae mate showed up with his almost matured big dread and we compared our hair... Mine are small dreads and his are big dreads... you may happily spot the difference now!

Note : By the way, i received an sms later that night about there's a great gig in UiTM on the same night. I didn't regret for not going no matter how great it was for Melbourne Shuffle is ALWAYS my PRIORITY since forever. However, if anyone is interested to find out more bout the gig, visit *here*
