Damn power gathering …
Once again , udjinn show us that you need to be more than a “jamtank team” to pull off Jamtank events..

Hensem betul anak fish…
yeah , anyway . from what i observed ..
Thing about bassists , when they get together and jam ..
its not about ..who’s faster , who’s better ..its about the groove , music , being together , learning and inspiring..and of course friendship lah..
thats why , we guitarist , got alot to learn from this bassist-lah ..one day we should have our own jamtank shred fest ..
Some thoughts :
Before this event , there was a huge fight in Jamtank . Something to do with a previous jamtank event ..
so , i am in no position to judge anybody ..but ..(who cares , its my blog )
anyway , i think that
one of the mistakes the previous event made was ..
they killed the “hype” a long long time ago
yeah its true , they started advertising like what? 6 months ago ? …whenever something brand new comes in the market …(event’s are always brand new) ..there is a “hype” when you start advertising it ..
and every event manager knows this ..
thats why , usually people start inviting people , 1 week before the event or so ..
Jamtank Bassist gathering , was planned like 3 days before it happened …the “hype” is strong
we can talk about how the bassist gathering organizer was wayy better , the location is better , more “jamtank celebrities” came and they pulled their friends etc …
but i think , what changes the whole thing , was this event had LOAD of HYPE AND ANTICIPATION
that is the big difference between Jamtank Bassist Gathering and Jamfest
to sum it up
People want something to do , Tomorrow , or Day after Tomorrow …not 6 months later ..i think the jamfest was advertised 6 months before , after 6 months of heavy advertising , people just get sick of it ..hype also hilang …get what i mean ?
thats why , 6 months ago , when the jamtank gig was “announced”..everybody was super excited ..and after 1 month it slowly dies lah..
anyway , if you were involve in organizing jamfest , you might not enjoy reading this ..it is just my thoughts lah..hopefully the next jamfest can do better
