Laundry Bar – TheJessicat

Raise your pints to Arthur Guinness as we kick off the month-long celebration of Arthursday music parties!

September 18, 2012 by thejessicat

Let's celebrate the legacy of Arthur once again… all month long!

GUINNESS Arthur's Day 2012, themed 'A Celebration Made of More', makes it comeback for Guinness fans and music lovers nationwide.

I was glad to be part of it too!

Inspired by Arthur Guinness' bold legacies, this year's series of month-long Guinness parties pays tribute to the founder of Guinness, a man who dared to make bold choices in his time.

What exactly did he do, you wonder?

Well, while other brewers boiled their barley back in the day, Arthur Guinness made the bold decision to roast his, creating a brew with more flavour, more taste and more look, which we now fondly know as the iconic black brew – Guinness.

Uh-huh! That's the one right there

I was invited to usher in the Arthur's Day series of month-long parties at the official launch party.

Hey, ho… let's go!

Made my way to the party!

It was held at Studio Lounge @ Tropicana City Mall

Yup, there you have it… the remarkable man made of more!

Hello there, Arthur Guinness

The party saw a delightful spread of a buffet dinner for all its guests.

I helped myself to their rendang chicken, satay, carved beef and so much more

Enjoying dinner with some friends!

3..2..1….

And the party kicks off with a bang!

Quite literally, as confetti exploded everywhere!

The lounge was filled with shimmery streaks and glitter

Local pop-rock band, Underheadlights, were amongst the band performing for us

A few local bands & artists vying for a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity happening at the end of the month!

They are Underheadlights, Car Crash Hearts, Once Upon a Time There Was a Sausage Named Bob, Rhythm Nation, SonaOne and Busco.

Yup, they will be battling it out for a chance to be the opening act for Creed at the Arthur's Day concert in Indonesia!

All the best! May the best band win

Need another pint for good luck?

No party is complete without its photographic evidence, yes?

Well… here they are!

Soon after, theboyfie and I decided to check out the much-talked about Arthur's Lounge.

It looks like a huge container/caravan thingy from a distance.

Let's enter and find out….

Guinness draught stations were all lined up for guests to learn how to make their own pints!

One of the Guinness boys taught me how

I've always wondered how they made a pint so smooth, frothy and foamy!

Finally, my question was answered as I was taught how to make my own pint of Guinness.

Success! My very own frothy Guinness and I

Theboyfie had a hands-on experience too!

Both our perfectly made pints of Guinness!

Thanks Guinness, for imparting the art of making one of your draughts

Here's to a successful series of celebrations throughout the whole September.

To Arthur!

Speaking of which, my Sunday afternoon (Malaysia Day) was spent at Sid's Pub @ TTDI.

Headed there to attend one of the series of Arthur's Day month-long parties!

There was so much going on, Guinness revellers buzzing all over the pub vicinity

Local bands served as our entertainment for the afternoon as well.

Just as I was entering Sid's Pub

Warm & cosy pub setting. Perfect for an afternoon of mingling over deep dark Guinness

Love their bar! I bet with the amount of alcohol stash they have, it could feed all alcoholics for a year!

The bartenders were such a friendly bunch

Pretty Guinness usherettes were present too

Decided to have lunch there too soon after.

We had an assortment of Chicken, Tuna & Cheese double-stacked sandwiches, Chicken & Pork Hotdogs

They were pretty damn good!

Thanks for the photo, Wilson!

Really? Allow me to have another sip then

Good food & good company!

Serena & I enjoying our pints!

The more the merrier!

A perfect frothy pint of your favorite black brew for a perfect sunny afternoon

Perhaps it was love after all *winks*

Digi Music Unlimited Launch Party | Laundry Bar

August 20, 2009 by thejessicat

It was in 7pm in the evening and there was a huge commotion at Laundry Bar, The Curve. What could that be? The one and only giveaway was its distinctive bright yellow splashed all over. DiGi Music Unlimited takes center stage today!

I was invited to this launch along with a few other bloggers. We had a pretty good time there – despite the fact that many of us were a lil crestfallen. Apparently the special appearance by the All American Rejects turned out to become nothing but a rumour!

Gimme that!

Sorry – I totally lost the plot
NO ONE TOLD ME WE WERE SUPPOSED TO MAKE A FACE!

They fed us well
and pumped up good music.

That’s his REAL height
/smirks

There was a light dinner buffet with yummalicious dessert! Perfect for all the sweet tooths out there. Check out some of my faves of the night

Loved the capsicum, sausage & tomato combo

Yummsters go to the mini chocolate brownie & cheese tarts

Despite having a wide variety of other food which was enough to go around. Nigel seemed to be on a very strict diet. His entire plate was empty except for a single stick

I wonder who he’s trying to impress?

My, what thick Dolly Parton lips ya’ got there pal
Sexxay can I? haha

Caprice was in the house to kickstart the event with an opening performance! His usual crew of masked men in formal – semi formal attire would break those beats with their show-stopping dance moves.

I wanna go
DOWN DOWN DOWN DOWN DOWN
A remix of Akon – Right Now (Na-Na-Na)

This is where I shut my ears as an entire hoard of tweens would
prolly go gaga over him whenever he has a performance anywhere

Still, I must give him a thumbs up for
having a really good on-stage personality as well as having his
own interactive methods of crowd control. Kudos!

Then Albern Murty came upstage to give us an introduction! Pretty nice name if I have to say so myself. Anyhoos, he’s the Head of Products & Segment Marketing. Three cheers for ya!

Together with the Head of Segment Marketing, Mr. Koay, the both of them started giving a pretty good sharing session on what this new entire digimusic.com.my was all about and what privileges & benefits it has in store for its users.

THIS IS WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW

For just RM5 a month, DiGi users can enjoy unlimited downloads from digimusic.com.my with an extensive music library from 2 of the world’s
largest music labels, Universal Music and Sony Music.

That’s not just it! The DiGI Music Unlimited customers needn’t have to pay any data charges – browsing and downloads – when they visit the webbie to personalize and share playlists/tracks with friends via SMS, email & other social networks.

Talk about spreading the love for music!

Music is love!

The DJ at the console kept us going with latest tracks fresh off the billboard charts. Well, what would DiGi Music Unlimited be should there be no music aye?

Those fab songs matches his bubbly personality!

Soon after that, we had a group tour on those DiGi Music Unlimited kiosks. It was a laptop and we were asked to compete against one another to see which group manages to follow all the instructions to download and share music in the fastest time.

Say HELLOOOO to Group 1

On our marks, get set…. GO! GO! GO!

Ohmy. What a candid.
Gahh. Pardon the stupid expression.

In the 1st round, we were the winners! Glad as we may be, all there’s left to do is to see if the 2nd round of contestant groups did not beat our time. Unfortunately, they did! RAWR. As a reward, they bagged a pair of spankin’ new headphones each. Congrats pals!

Being 2nd place didn’t win us anything
but we’re all still winners at heart!

Log onto digimusic.com.my to take control of those tunes and share them to anyone! Trust me, it’s too cheery and bright not to pay them a visit.

Unlimited music, what more can you ask for? If you say an iPhone, I’ll smack the cookies right outta your head.

An Afro-Chinese. What ever happened to the Yellow Fat Man?
I ate him whole

Raise your pints to Arthur Guinness as we kick off the month-long celebration of Arthursday music parties!
