CONTEST

Hey all.. here's a gig update..

Boplicity is playing the Top Room again this weekend! So do come by and check it out!

*trust Junji to come up with something interesting to write on the Top Room blog each time!! Thanks Junji! ;)*

What caption would you create for this photo of Julian Chan?
A contest? That means got prize also right? What prize? Umm... how about a chance to blow on Julian's horn ... err ... using your own mouthpiece, of course. Aiyak! Somehow that didn't come out right. Ok, forget that one... how about free keropok all night at Top Room? [Eh, dey, Jazzmamak! ... keropok IS free at Top Room lah].

Erm... oookay... how about... a free photo op with the band for posting on The Top Room site and Julian Chan's site and Boplicity's site?? Ha! I think I'm well connected enough even to be able to swing a copy autographed by the five band members just for you! How about that?


But that would mean that you have to be at Top Room this Friday and Saturday when Boplicity swings along. And that would also mean that you would have to actually send your caption in before Thursday, 14th June, so that our panel of judges [that is... I, me & myself :)] can go through the entries and pick the most inventive/creative caption of all! And should it be a tight contest, rest assured that the one that reduces Julian Chan to peals of unstoppable laughter will be declared the winner.
So don't forget...

Boplicity is back at The Top Room this Friday & Saturday. First set starts at 10:30 p.m. Cover charge is RM20nett. Ring 03-21428611 for reservations.
See you at The Top!

Boplicity @ Chill Wine Bar

Hey everyone,

We're back playing again this week, but this time at a more chill-out place at Chill Wine Bar, Plaza Damas. Since it's a chill-out place, we're gonna be playing at a more chilled out pace. Expect some usual tunes from our repertoire and some more jazz standards to enjoy your wine and dine. Join the band - Julian Chan on saxophones, Eddie Wen on trumpet/flugelhorn, Cher Siang on piano, Vincent Ong on double bass, and Martin Ngim on drums - for three swinging, boppin' sets for two nights on Friday and Saturday.

Also, we'll have special guest on vocals, Junji Delfino, to sing a few songs with us in our three-set show both nights. Expect some sultry, powerful, soulful jazz from one of three only jazz singers in KL, and probably one of the best ones, at that!

In addition we're also gonna have young, upcoming pianist, Wei Li sitting in for Cher Siang on Saturday night (as Cher Siang would be preparing for his wedding reception on Sunday). Wei Li's a new cat on the scene, still studying in music college, but give him a couple of years, and he'll be one of the more hip up-and-coming pianist in town!

So do come by and hang out and listen to the band this weekend!

SUPPORT LIVE JAZZ IN KL!!!
