Misirlouミザルー Journey to the Stars 星への旅路 Rudolph 赤鼻のトナカイ Ventures Mina Pang The Cotton Kids

Happy holidays to you all! When the whole city seems to be ill, we were busying gigging: first at the Eiffel Tower at Le Jardin Cotai, and then on one of the largest stages in town: Largo de Sai Van at the Macau Tower. Only one term comes to mind: psychological imbalance. Well, I told our band members to just stay sound and fit and try our best to enjoy the most out of it. ;-))) It was surreal.
So ladies and gentleman, we are trying hard to bring back surf rock to the city. Here comes footages of some of the songs we played.
Of course we had the best sound engineering crew to help us, with the sound check, rehersal, and we were simply treated like VIPs. I think to them, all performers were VIPs, whether you are a local band or super stars from Hong Kong or Taiwan. It was a surreal experience to us The Cotton Kids!
To be honest, when Uncle Gary called and asked if we could play on 24th in the evening at the Sai Van Lake, I checked my schedule and I was already scheduled to play at the Parisian on 24th (but very late in the afternoon). Besides, the big stage that Bon Jovi, Linkin Park and Taylor Swift went was at the Venetian Cotai Arena, I don’t think I’d be playing there so where would I be gigging at the Parisian?! Last time I saw someone gigging there, it was in the ballroom…anyways, Sai Van Lake, meaning, it’s Anim'Arte so it’s busking by the lake. Oh brother. That means I'd have to bring my own mic stands, our drums and amps and all, even the extension cords. I would collapse and would need acupuncture treatment the following day! But, it’s alright. It would be nice to gig, play music and bring people joy via our music during festivals. The girls from our band would have a great time. To be honest, I treasure every single time I get to gig with my kid. Hey, she will be a teenager soon and who knows… when you were a teenager, did you fancy playing music with your old man? But anyways, with temperatures dropping, and I could put on my 30 year old biker’s jacket which can literally stand on the ground. So I replied to our manager, “let’s do it!” It turned out that on Facebook, I saw on a friend’s page that she saw The Cotton Kids would be playing at the Macau Tower year end count down stage! You know, I have been on stages even bigger than this many times to be honest, but this is the first time I set foot on such a stage with my little girl Mina, my own band, not to mention I bring with me my guitar on stage. But, I was thinking of bringing badminton rackets and a volleyball cos the stage was huge. We feel really honored they invited The Cotton Kids to gig here.
And just in case you are interested in original songs Mina came up with, we have 1 song here for you to check out:
• 黑沙 Kids Hac Sa Kids 棉...
Again folks, you won't believe it. Too many people are sick and no one goes to work in our city. Still, the show must go on. May we wish you all a peaceful, healthy and lucky holidays!!!!

イイネェ　最高峰のエレキ演奏は　もうすごい　心臓がドキドキ　もう極楽だよ。パパの情熱と教育がこうなった。降参だよ。

気に入ってもらってうれしいです！あきらめないでください。遅すぎることはない！ 私の父は30年以上ギターを弾いていませんでした。

[@tjsogmc]

You guys sound FANTASTIC!!!!!! It's amazing to me to have watched your musical journey through the internet and see you grow and mature from literally the other side of the planet. Certainly a bright future lies ahead!

[@PangPangguitarjam]

we just got lucky to be invited to play on a big stage....it was very cool though...awesome experience to us!!!! ;-)

[@stanislavdanilov2521]

Great performance. I have heard this melody before, only in your expression I truly appreciated it. You are amazing musicians!!!

[@PangPangguitarjam]

Your words are too kind!!! Thank you, Stanislav! It was a surreal experience for us to play on such a stage. They only invited 4 bands...1 of them the biggest band from HK, then 1 band is the biggest band from Macau, then 1 other band, then us. We were so thrilled. I told the ladies it means a lot of surf rock could be revived in our city because of us...thank you again and stay warm!

[@Justusosaa]

アマチュア?金取れるぞー😍近くなら行きたい♪⁠ ⁠\⁠(⁠^⁠ω⁠^⁠\⁠ ⁠)

[@治水野-x5f]

こんな小さな手でフレットを使いこなす👍特注品なのか?私は楽譜読めないから💦動き何度も見て勉強してますよ、

[@PangPangguitarjam]

@@治水野-x5f 今まであなたのコメントを見ていませんでした。すみません！普通の指板を持った普通のギターでした。みなちゃんは6歳から普通のギターを弾いているので問題ありません。ただし、エレキギターのネックがアコースティックギターに比べて薄いのは事実です。

[@治水野-x5f]

太いよな普通のギターは🤔指使うのでかな?なかなか上達難く教室指導🤔考えてます年取ると覚え悪いですわ、しかし指使いで認知症予防出来ますのでミナちゃん見て盗みたい今後動画発信してね

[@syacyou851]

拠点はどこですか！音楽も、ルックスも申し分なし！good,

[@PangPangguitarjam]

優しい言葉をありがとう！私たちは中国南部のマカオ市に拠点を置いています。私たちの国にはサーフ・ミュージックを演奏する人がいないので、このジャンルの音楽を積極的に演奏している唯一のバンドです。そして、いつかもっと多くの人がサーフ・ミュージックを楽しめるようになることを願っています。

[@須藤政男-f6c]

😊うまい、ね、

[@PangPangguitarjam]
