Today went for SYFOC 2006. It was a historical moment as this will be the last time SYFOC will be held in the National Stadium. Why? Because the National Stadium will be torn down after NDP. I think. Anyway, the performance was great. The performance started with the combine school choir singing a few song that almost all of us would know how to sing. E.g. Chan Mali Chan, I Dream and etc. Then the parade started. The various uniform groups marched in with vigour accompanied by the music played by the band. I makes me wonder how long did they train to be perfectly in time with the beat of the music and with one another. Next, the PM arrived and inspected the contigents. well i donot have much to say about that part as i went to the loo.
When i came back, there was a performance by a guest military band from Malaysia. No offense but they were extremely soft and we could only vaguely hear the drums. The same goes for the Thailand group. Although they were abit louder, they were not much better off than the Malaysia ones.
Next up was a mass display called something like "pulse of youth" or something like that. It was quite glaring as the display used highly reflective material and the sun was high up in the sky. Some of the band people named the item "照妖镜".
Then came 3 military bands of Singapore. They were Tanjong Katong Sec, Deyi Sec and Bowen Sec (in order of appearance). They wowed the crowd with their wonderful performance which was in a jarring contrast of the guest bands performance. Well, these 3 are bands with Gold with Honours so what do you expect from them.
the rest was unworthy of being mention so you have to find out about it yourself.
