One of the much talked about video at the AIM was one by Pete Teo, even to the extend of it being plugged heavily on the big screen and on radio. Do check it out…

They’ve done their parts, are we going to our part to show our unity and love for Malaysia?
With Ellice from Russ Consulting, I head over to the Life Center in KL at peak after office hour to catch the band The Outer Rim. A Fusion-Jazz band from Japan comprising four outstandingly talented musicians. These guys g ot together around 2006 (some of their earlier work can be heard in Metal Gear Solid 3), comprising Norihiko Hibino on Saxophone, Hakuei Kim on Piano, Jeff Curry on Bass and Nobuaki Fujii on drums. These guy’s performance was awesome!
Mia Palencia
The other highlight of the night was the two guest artistes that was specially invited for this event. The opening act was performed by Mia Palencia. Great performance by her to kick off the night before The Outer Rim takes the stage.
Ning Baizura
After the 2nd set by the band, Ning Baizura was then led on stage to perform a few songs. The funny part of this was when the announcer called out her name and her pianist came out. The crowd just silent for a few second stunted before breaking out with laughter when she finally stepped out.
