Keeping fit and staying healthy whilst always on the move has always been my way of life.

I'm so glad that many of you have told me how you were influenced by my daily routines. Being able to positively influence my readers towards my goals of staying fit & healthy is yet another achievement altogether!

My recent stint at Fitology in Bangsar!

As a health junkie & a fitness advocate, I'm always sharing my healthy bites from my very own kitchen or wherever I dine at as well as sharing my gym activities & progress on my Facebook feeds & Twitter

Today, imma share my complete 360° fitness programme at Fitology, which is located in Bangsar.

Fitology. Designed to give us a 360° fitness experience

Take my hand, and let me bring you on a visual tour of Fitology through my eyes!

I arrived the vicinity at 4pm and guess what's the 1st thing I did? 😛

Check-in on Foursquare! 😛 😛

I checked out the place before I began my session.

Fitology boasts a very spacious, brightly lit and most importantly, well-equipped training zones.

The first wealth is health!

Always remember that, dearies 

Just some of the machines you will need for your 30 minute cross-fit training!

I shall introduce you to them later and how they will help you work your body 😀

This is another zone where the training is conducted.

As you can see from the mats and wall mirrors, floor exercises, core muscle workout,

free weights, flexibility & stretching are conducted here!

Prior to the session, I was given a short Q&A form to fill in.

This is important so your trainer can gauge your fitness level and target certain areas 

1. FITNESS

Roaring with enthusiasm, I couldn't wait to begin right away! Let it roll! 

I was given a short briefing & overview of my training before I began. 

This is my trainer for today. 

Meet Jason. He's sucha nice and patient dude!

Jason pointed to the iPod on the counter and asked me if I wanted music to accompany my workout.

But of course! Music gets me going; especially in a fitness routine 

I turned the volume up and selected Laidback Luke's tracks.

I'm ready for this! Hey ho.. let's go! 

Let's get our body pumping more oxygen to our muscles & heart rate up first, shall we? 😀

WARM UP SESSION!

Warm ups are very important to make sure our bodies are gradually coordinated and ready for increased demands of exercise and it reduces the risk of pain & injuries too. 

So never, EVER skip out on your warm up session for it helps you to prepare your body physically & mentally for workouts!

First up! Jason instructed me to the…

Rope Machine

This machine targets the biceps, triceps, shoulders, chest and back muscles!

It requires a certain amount of constant strength.

But nothing you can't do, I'm sure of it 

Once you pick up the momentum, it's pretty easy

Imagine you're falling off a cliff, okay? So just keep pulling the never-ending rope! 

Jason very patiently guided me to straighten my back & keep my head up whilst working out

He kept me going at a regular pace, not forgetting to inhale & exhale too!

Once that's done, I drained the waterbottle provided at the counter and proceeded with the next workout.

The JACOB'S LADDER

Jason showing me the correct way of fastening the belt on to your waist

You will need to strap & buckle yourself up to ensure the ladder keeps coming at a certain rate (depending on how fast you climb or how high you climb till) and for reading on the machine to stay correct.

I'm all strapped up!

Climb! Climb! Climb the ladder with never-ending steps! 

Just keep going. Don't look back.

If you start to feel tired, imagine you're trying to climb away from a vicious monster behind you LOL

This machine wore me out pretty quickly. 

Phew! I felt like a hamster on a hamster wheel

Throughout the workout, Jason was right by my side to keep me going!

Throughout all my years of working out at the gym, I never believed in having a Personal Trainer

I've picked up some skills along the way & have always worked out efficiently myself.

But at Fitology, it isn't like the usual gym routines of 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 nor sets and reps.

This is where you actually NEED a personal trainer by your side to ensure your workout is tailor-made for you and your body's needs. Your trainer is there to give each and every individual different workouts according to their fitness level or their goals.

On to the Water Rower

I've seen these equipments in the gym but never bothered to use it. 

Probably 'cos I don't know the correct way. But now I do 😀

The rowing strokes uses a vast majority of muscles!  Here, let me show you :

We're putting all these muscles to good use! 😀

Row row row away!

Bumped into buddy Joanne while she was on the Water Rower too

Keep it up, hun! 

I took a good gulp of water and continued taking Jason's lead.

We proceeded to the Ab Coaster!

Why hello there, Ab Coaster. You and I shall be fast friends.

Jason showed me how I should 

pull my lower torso up using my abdominal muscles slowly but steadily

With every pull, I feel the burn. 

Loving it to the maximum! 

Yup, that's right.

Focus. Focus. Focus.

And keep it going. That is key! 

Just a few more crunches! Mad love for the sweat trickling down my forehead

The final equipment on my programme today. The Arc Trainer!

It may look like the usual elliptical machines in the gym but there's a huge difference, if you didn't know.

This is the Cybex Arc Trainer; similar but yet very different from a elliptical machine

Although both the machines work for cardio and the lower body, the Arc Trainer's foot plates move in a very different path compared to the elliptical machine.

Take a look at this :

According to Dr. Paul Juris of Cybex International, which developed the first arc trainer, 

the difference between the machine and an elliptical is that the arc trainer's footplates move in an arc pattern. 

An elliptical machine's foot plates rotate in an ellipse pattern. 

The idea behind the arc pattern is that the movement is comparable with the 

elliptical's but requires less movement.

This allows for less stress in the knees and hips, while increasing cardiovascular endurance.

 

 

Tiring! But so worth the panting and perspiration!

Keep it going at a regular pace. 

This machine works not just your lower body but your upper body as well.

Now that I'm pretty much acquainted with all the machines in the room, it's time for Round #2

Are we ready? What's left of my energy was fueled by the zest I have to keep going. 

So.. let's do it! 

Rope Machine… PULL PULL PULL until Jason says stop!

With the sheer determination and the drive to finish it till the end… this proves no problem.

Ab Coaster! Crunchtime baby! 

My favorite (and also the toughest)… the Jacobs Ladder! 

Climb the highest mountain… and be proud of it, for the steps never stop coming down

After a few rounds of cross-fit fitness training for 30 minutes in total, it was time to proceed to the 2nd part of the Fitology 360° experience.

2. Detox.

This is how you burn calories passively!

I was ushered to my own private room where the Far-Infrared (FIR) Sauna machine was

Me inside the FIR Sauna. I've never sweat this much whilst practically not doing anything!

See the giant bottle of water? I was told to finish every last drop for water replenishment 🙂

The FIR sauna machine doesn't only rid your body of excess toxins and stimulates the body's metabolic process to burn calories!

Apart from that, it strengthens your immune system and rejuvenates your skin 

I sat inside the FIR Sauna machine and read a few fitness magazines that were provided and even had time to surf around on my phone. I was sweating buckets from doing…. nothing. LOL.

What a great way to burn calories, ey? 😀

Third stage!!

3. Nourishment

I was given a choice of smoothies and I chose the fat-burning one!

So delicious! It tasted of strawberries. 

This step is crucial to replenish the lost nutrients & fluids, as well as refuel the body with antioxidants

It aids digestion and gives our immune system a boost too! 

Final stage (and should I say the best part? 😛 )

4. Sports Therapy

One hour full body massage! Just exactly what I need after a good, powerful workout.

I totally live for massages 

I frequent massage parlours pretty often, but hardly any target the right muscles like Fitology's masseuse does

She was just THAT good… and friendly too! 

We befriended each other and I had some good laughter through the funny stories we exchanged whilst having a kick-ass massage that aids in post-exercise recovery. What could be better? 

Kneading all my tired muscles. Thank you so much, it feels great!

I expected to be sluggish after today but nope, I got right back on my feet and felt so refreshed

After less than 3 hours, I was done with my complete 360° Fitology experience!

I'm dead sure I've burnt more calories than I ever did in my regular 3 hour session at the gym each time.

It's a wholesome workout! 

For someone who has been actively working out for the past few years, my advice to you is to NEVER look at your workouts as a chore. 

I want you to enjoy it, feel it and reap the benefits from all that discipline.

How do you get a trim, lean, firm & fit body? 

Simple. It's pure hard work and determination.

And no starving required 

You could join Fitology for an overall fitness experience, while you're at it. 

For non-members (walk in customers), you pay RM200

But if you sign up as a member, you only pay RM110 for the full experience!

I find this concept extremely unique and a one-stop all-in-one fitness center.

30 minutes of professional fitness training + 30 minutes of FIR sauna + health smoothie + sports massage. Is all you need to achieve your health & fitness goals! The calories burnt in one short, compact Fitology 360° session outweighs any others 

Also, one more important thing. I believe wholeheartedly that fitness routines and working out should not be limited to plump, fat, overweight or obese (whichever is the politically/socially correct term LOL).

Why must one wait to grow that big before deciding to turn up their fitness dial?

I for one, definitely advocate maintaining fitness and keeping an active, healthy lifestyle despite being fat or thin.

I can safely say that I'm probably not fat NOW, but I COULD be, if I do not start being fit now, right?

As a fitness junkie, I strongly recommend Fitology to be incorporated in your fitness routines!

LASTLY, TO ALL FELLOW YOUTHS OF THE NATION,

SEE YOU AT YOUTH JAM 2012!

When I was extended an invitation to celebrate the official launch of the all-new shiny and curvaceous bottle of Hennessy VSOP, I could hardly contain my excitement! 

Witnessing something of such grandeur – especially the evolution of the World's #1 cognac, a new Hennessy bottle – meant a lot to me as my family (dating from the days of my great grandparents) frequently open bottles of their favorite cognac, Hennessy for all family occasions.

My plus-one for the evening & I 

Which goes to say that I've seen previous designs on the older bottles belonging to my grandparents, all displayed beautifully in the cabinets of our bottle collection. 

Cannot wait to put this spanking new one beside its predecessors! 

Here, I arranged all the 4 different types of drinks I had

We were served Hennessy's signature long drinks upon arrival

There were (L-R clockwise) Hennessy Soda, Hennessy Apple, Hennessy Ginger & Hennessy Berry

My favorite one of the lot was the Hennessy Apple! 

Loving the distinctive taste of Hennessy VSOP cognac with a hint of sweet, apple flavour 

We were ushered to the foyer to mingle about before the event began.

I was told by the awesome team behind this party that the celebration will be divided into two parts :

The WHITE Room & The BLACK Room

But before that, some photos of my friends & I at the foyer sipping on delightful Hennessy VSOP cognac!

There was so much merriment in the house!

Catching up with my friends & having a drink of Hennessy VSOP cognac with more lovely people totally set the mood for the evening

We were served an array of finger-food to complement our drinks too!

Good god, those miniature pies were delicious!

But not as delicious as my favourite Hennessy Apple, of course! 

The beautiful Hennessy girls then ushered us into The White Room to witness the launch of the new, elegant Hennessy VSOP Cognac bottle and new packaging design! 

More food & drinks were in store for us too!

The peeps behind this event sure know how to keep our tummies happy & satiated huh 😛

Drinks were served in abundance and I must say, how could I resist? They were simply divine

The bartenders were friendly and entertained me with their bartending stunts before making my drink!

Theboyf and I in the White Room

Outfit of the Day! TheJessicat wears :

Dress by Dorothy Perkins

Belt from Bangkok

Netted long cardigan by Jaspal

Bag from an online boutique

Peep-toe glass wedges by Aldo

Upon settling down at the table, I caught sight of 2 very familiar bottles on stage.

How time has passed! Hennessy's unchanged personality has been enjoyed for almost 2 centuries now

Hennessy's old bottle designs!

If you didn't know, the legend of Hennessy VSOP began on 7th October 1817 when the future King George IV of England requested the great French cognac house to supply him with a very special cognac described in the record with the words "Very Superior Old Pale".

Legends are shaped over time. And for a premium cognac that has been celebrated worldwide for 7 generations, their secrets of selection, aging and blending has been passed down over the years till today!

With an old buddy, this charismatic lad, Will Quah 

He's the emcee of tonight's event as well!

Will welcomed us all and made a celebratory toast to Hennessy VSOP's newly launched designs.

He then announced that we were going to have a very special guest appearance……

?

ANY GUESSES ON WHO IT IS?

None other than the MAN behind these gorgeous new Hennessy bottle designs!

If you're into cars (especially BMWs) you would recognize him with just one glance. The Hennessy V.S.O.P new carafe is his first masterpiece outside the automobile industry. 

Chris Bangle, from the United States of America, was flown in specially for a guest appearance & to give a (simplified) LIVE demonstration of his work.

Chris Bangle and I

We were pleased to have designer Christopher Edward "Chris" Bangle, the legendary figure in the automobile world, of BMW and Rolls Royce fame, to commemorate the evening with us 

He is best known for his daring design and far-reaching influence in his works as Chief of Design for BMW Group, where he was responsible for the BMW, MINI and Rolls-Royce motor cars from 1992 to 2006

The mastermind stood beside his brainchild and spoke about his experience behind this bottle design.

"Designing for Hennessy gave me the same sensations as working on

designs for fast BMWs or a great Rolls Royce.

It is that experience of a unique emotion,"

– Chris Bangle

He demonstrated LIVE on big screen before our very eyes,

how he redesigned the contours to emphasize its sleek silhouette

A presentation was held to showcase Hennessy VSOP's new bottle design & packaging.

Guests witnessed its appearance in awe 🙂 It was simply exquisite. Here they are!

Introducing a more refined & dramatised new look of the Hennessy VSOP Cognac

I will share more secrets & beauty of the bottle in my next blogpost! 😀

After the presentation in The White Room was over,

we were ushered by the Hennessy girls to adjourn to The Black Room

Wow. 

Just.. wow.

Here in The Black Room, it was Hennessy's own private party thrown for us in celebration of their new bottle!

The spacious room with amazing surround sound & bass, defined a clubbing experience with Hennessy, complete with comfy lounge sofas, free flow of Hennessy VSOP long drinks, a dance floor, a 360 camera photo-shooting raised platform, 2 DJs dropping electronic dance music for us party people and more!

Are we ready?

Me at my umpteenth number of Hennessy Apple! 😛 😛

Renowned local DJ, Eva T dropped the bass for us with great mash-ups and remixes of epic EDM tracks

Chilling by Hennessy's circle wall which proudly displayed all the new bottles & new package designs!

So Lionel tried to photobomb me but I caught him in time.

Still, can't help but to publish this photo though. It's kinda funny! 😛

We posed and had so much camlovin' at the one-of-a-kind Hennessy 360 camera!

Props were given, theboyf & I chose the electric guitar and as many new Hennessy botles we could grab

We saw ourselves at the LCD television display!

There were also interactive games for guests to entertain themselves – if they weren't entertained enough

But just my two cents : seriously, how can anyone ever be bored at a party like this? 😛

Mad love for fluffy red pillows strewn all over the lounge sofas! 

Bring it on! 😀 I had tremendous amount of fun and we were only halfway

More photos of my friends & I having a ball of a time at the Hennessy VSOP new bottle launch party!

The music of the night was spun by not one… but TWO DJs!

This was the next DJ that brought the house down with lots of electro, house & dubstep for us 

Keep it going down!

By the end of the night, I think I was a wee bit out

Some instant photos I tweeted whilst at the party

I managed to sober up in time before the party ended.

Drink responsibly! 😀 😀 

With buddy Ash at the photowall just as the party ended

Taking my last shot with an artistic piece of King George IV

It was you, who begun the works of the finest cognac ever! 

The evening ended in full swing, just as it did when it begun

Warmest words of congratulations again to Hennessy for a successful launch of their more modern & futuristic 21st century new bottle & packaging design!

Check out Hennessy Malaysia's Facebook page here and show 'em some love! 

It was the day where punk rockers, who grew up in the 90s could relish with hardcore joy.

It was the day where 2000+ fans queued all evening and gathered with one sole motivation.

14th April 2012. It was the day where Sum 41 rocked our Malaysian stage!

Sum 41 LIVE in Malaysia 2012

Yes. I am certainly one of those punk rockers at heart.

My teenage years were the most significant memories of my punk rocker demeanor.

Sum 41 was a band that I remember rocking out to – on my own – within the confines of my bedroom 

And now here I am at the upper deck of KL Live watching my teenage idols perform LIVE

Remember I ran a Sum 41 contest here? Well, I'd like to congratulate the 3 winners of my contest again!

Hope ya'll enjoyed the concert as much as I did 🙂

Bumped into one of my winners for the Sum 41 contest.

Congrats Melissa! 🙂

My lovely assistant for the day – buddy Pamela 

8PM | Bunkface kick-started the party as one of  the opening acts of the night.

They sang 4 songs altogether.

Bunkface on stage!

Rocking out with their guitars!

Playing 'Extravaganza'!

And 'Silly Willy'!

Those two are my favorite songs from them 😀 Too bad they didn't play 'Through My Window'!

I loved that song heaps! 

8.30PM | One Buck Short took to the stage 😀 😀 

They sang '10:04'. Hurrah! I remember singing to it last year in my car all the time when it played on radio.

Don't wake me up! This is our love song!

t   

Rahul, lead guitarist of OBS! 😀 

He was amazing and definitely a man of talent

They performed a slow rendition of  'Puppy Love' as well

What I found really impressive was their cover of Katy Perry's 'Last Friday Night'.

It was such a brilliant metal version, complete will all the growls 

OBS introduced a violinist who played LIVE! It was a terrific accompaniment to their songs

10PM | No sign of Sum 41 just yet. We had been waiting for an hour!

People were starting to get a tad restless after the long wait but there was still merriment in the crowd.

Pam and I camwhored our boredom away!

What I found really amusing was the way people find such delirious ways to entertain themselves!

The audience from the upper tier started throwing free drinks to the audience below.

While everyone else started to freeze and sing our national anthem, 'Negaraku' and bursting out into random sing-a-long songs.

10.30PM | Finally! Sum 41 broke the frustration with a sudden grand entrance

All the dissatisfaction and rage immediately transformed into high levels of energy from the crowd!

Stealing the show with their Screaming Bloody Murder tour with 'Screaming Bloody Murder'!

Lemme introduce you to the band members of Sum 41!

Lead singer & guitarist Deryck Whibley!

Bass guitarist and backing vocalist Jason McCaslin!

Lead guitarist & backing vocalist Tom Thacker!

Drummer Steve Jocz!

Over 2000 fans queued up as early as the afternoon began! Talk about some die hard fans here.

And hours before Sum 41 rocked the stage, the entire KL Live was packed with crazy punk rockers coming from all over Malaysia and even foreigners who made their way here to watch them live! 

Left side of the stage!

Right side of the stage!

When Sum 41 began playing their signature songs from the earlier albums, both the upper tier and lower tier were roaring with people all ready to rumble!

I had my fair share of yelling (singing) along to my fave songs 

Derryck and Jason giving the crowd one they'll never forget

They continued with 'Reason to Believe' and brought the house down with 'Hell Song'!

The crowd began to crowd-surf amongst each other.

There's a video at the end of this post! We managed to capture a guy surfing away 😀

Throughout 'Hell Song' , Derryck began cherry-picking people from the crowd

Picking out another one!

Bet it was hard to choose; everyone would kill to join Sum 41 onstage!

The crowd was yelling, screaming and jumping as much as they can to be THE CHOSEN ONE 😀

Just keep choosing and bringing 'em people to your stage, Derryck!

He brought up not one but FOUR people up on stage! Saw some of them giving Derryck a big hug.

Everyone got real jelly when they saw that and went 'HEYYYY!!!!' but it soon changed into an 'AWWWWW!'

Turning the mic towards the crowd so we can sing the bridge for him!

NOW I'M IN OVER MY HEAD!

FOR SOMETHING I SAID!

COMPLETELY MISREAD!

I'M BETTER OFF DEAD!

The crowd got into the zone and began to whirl up a massive circle pit in the mosh!

Their next song on tonight's playlist was 'We're All To Blame'

Performing a beautiful rendition of 'Walking Disaster'

I must say, eventhough I haven't been catching up or keeping myself up to date with the latest songs off their latest album Screaming Bloody Murder, I truly enjoyed their newer numbers.

Sum 41's new release of tracks felt darker, deeper, less punk-rock – routing slightly to the metal rock genre

Sum 41 performing 'Time for You to Go'

The next two songs were 'In Too Deep' and 'Motivation'. Boy, I swore I could feel the reverberation throughout the whole upper deck!

Imagine 2000 people, upper and lower tier, jumping and headbanging at the same time.

We be causing our own tremor in KL Live! 

Sum 41 letting Steve Jocz have his moment!

He definitely stole the limelight throughout his drum solo!

The continued their performance with 'Sick of Everyone', a number off their latest album as well.

Despite it being one of their newer songs, die-hard fans knew all the lyrics by heart.

Now that was impressive… and so much undying love for Sum 41! 

ROAARRRR WHO WANTS SOME HEAVY METAL!!!?

To our surprise, Sum 41 gave us a few short performance-covers of some really popular metal songs.

They covered songs by Ozzy Osbourne, Iron Maiden, Metallica and a few others.

After 'Underclass Hero', another twist was in store for us.

Derryck then passed the mic to Tom and he gave us a stellar guitar solo and vocal performance!

Woooootwoooooot!

Tom's guitar solo

Derryck's guitar solo

T'was great seeing how all the band members of Sum 41 were so cooperative and supportive of one another onstage.

Such wonderful showmanship! Their transitions and performances jived seamlessly 

Jason and Derryck began picking out more people from the crowd to join them onstage

"I choose you!"

Performing 'Still Waiting' off their 2nd studio album Does This Look Infected?

SO AM I, STILL WAITING?

FOR THIS LOVE TO STOP HATING?

'Still Waiting' was another one of my favorite Sum 41 songs and I enjoyed headbanging and yelling throughout the song.

It was mayhem! Another circle pit started in the mosh again and more crowd-surfing soon ensued 

It was so insane till a point where security had to come and keep things back to an orderly manner LOL

Don't want anybody to get hurt, ey? 🙂

Keep moshing but be safe, fellow punk rockers!

The boys of Sum 41 performing a cover of 'We Will Rock You' originally sang by Queen

(encore)

After that performance was over, the crowd was already soaked with perspiration and brimming with their own heat.

The temperature rose and many people were seen pouring bottles of water over themselves.

Some even splashed their water on Derryck!

Oh you wanna play huh?

Let the games begin!

WATERFIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Derryck then grabbed his waterbottle off stage and splashed it towards the audience in retaliation

Derryck was soon outnumbered. The waterfight just kept going! 😀

Sum 41 proceeded to perform their final song of the night, 'Fat Lip'. 

For those of you who have been listening to them back in the day, you would know that 'Fat Lip' was the very first single released off their very first album, All Killer No Filler, back in 2001.

Geez, how time flies!

The final twist of the night : drummer Steve Jocz takes the centerstage and wows the crowd on the mic!

There you have it, the boys of Sum 41!

This was the first time in all the years of my covering gigs/concerts that the drummer actually got down

from his drumset to steal the show with the microphone instead

It was impressive no doubt!

Sum 41 then threw out guitar picks and drumsticks to the crowd.

Everyone flocked to wherever those goodies were being thrown to! Now, I wish I was at the mosh too 😛

They gave us a bow after their stunning two-hour performance

Although it was a pity that they did not perform 'Pieces', which was a crowd-favorite (I could hear people chanting Pieces! Pieces! Pieces! as early as 10PM!), we enjoyed their live performance and all that wait to see them perform in the flesh right in front of our eyes proved to be worthwhile.

Only a true fan would wait for hours (rain or shine)and still support a band to the end and back.

Here's the video of the night

Thanks to Pam for the footages & thanks to Kon for helping me edit them! 

WATCH EEEEEEEEEEEEET 😀 😀 

You've made these two girls very happy and proud of the music we grew up with

I'm sure the entire crowd of 2000 exuberant fans can vouch for what I said

Freddy Mercury approves 😛

Sum 41 made us, punk-rockers so proud tonight!

We wish you all the best for the remaining stops of your Screaming Bloody Murder tour

A major shout-out to Rahul of One Buck Short and Livescape Asia and for putting together this amazing one-night-only show for us and making it happen!  I had a terrific time, thank you! 

Tonight's special Rockaway showcase was indeed, brilliant.

Can't wait for the Rockaway Fest this year!

Aldactone

Finally, back from the Avenged Sevenfold concert held in Sunway Lagoon Surf Beach!

As a rockerchick deep down (though not an ardent fan of metal music) I must say I enjoyed my two hours worth of A7X's hard rock & heavy metal. 

M.Shadows rocking the stage with his gritty, powerful voice

They were nothing short of amazing!! 

The turn-out blew me away; it was success! A total of at least 15,000 people rocked up to the event 

A7X performed 13 songs altogether – beginning with 'Nightmare' and ended with 'Unholy Confessions'

Zacky Vengeance & Synyster Gates rocking the surf beach down with their deft guitar skills

This is just a little sneak-peak preview post 😉

Stay tuned for the main blogpost that's gonna be a massive load of photos & a video of the night!

Till then, AVENGED SEVENFOLD FTW!

Major credits to TuneTalk for working so hard to bring A7X down to Malaysia and serving us a heavy dose of powerful rock, metal, amazing guitar solos, drum solos, heaps of screaming & headbanging today!

Good night fellow rockers & metalheads!
