In Memory Of Lester William Polsfuss (June 9, 1915 – August 13, 2009)

From His Full Name, You Might Not Recognize Him. Lester William Polsfuss. You Might Say : "Who The F**k Is This Old Dude?". Let Me Tell You A Bit About Lester, He Was A Pioneer In The Development Of The Solid-body Electric Guitar Which "Made The Sound Of Rock and Roll Possible". His many recording innovations included Overdubbing , Delay Effects such as Tape Delay, Phasing Effects, and Multitrack Recording. His innovative talents extended into his unique playing style, including licks, Trills, Chording sequences, Fretting Techniques and Timing, which set him apart from his contemporaries and inspired many of the guitarists of the present day. Oh Yeah, His Nickname Was LES PAUL.

And Yes! He Was The Creator Of The World Famous, The Most Beautiful and The Most Best Seller. The Gibson "Les Paul". The Story Behind This Guitar Is Quite Interesting. But Sadly Lester "Les Paul" William Passed Away At August 13, 2009. On August 13, 2009, Les Paul died of complications from pneumonia at White Plains Hospital in White Plains, New York.

Post Mortem : Between Silence and Sound (09/08/09)

Highlights.

We At R.O.M Would Like To Thank These 2 Bands, Blood On Wedding Dress (Kuala Lumpur) and Daighila (Negeri Sembilan) For Coming Down To Sabah And Giving Us A One Hell Of An Unforgettable Show and Please Do Come Again. We At R.O.M Also Would Like To Salute The Organizers Who Managed To Give Us A Lineup Of Awesome Bands (Including The Ones From Semenanjung), Good Work Guys.

The Show.

As We Know When The Emcee Shouts "Oi Kamurang Di Luar Tu, Masuklah! Mau Start Sudah Ni!", Well.. The Show Has Already Started. Well This Time The Shows Progressed In Weird Manner, It Started Out On A Post-Hardcore Situation Turning To "Inside Out Hell, Get Me Out Of Here" Situation and Ends At "Oh My God, Call The Cops! The Kids Are Going Crazy!" Situation. Well, I Would Give A 7.5/10 Rating For This Gig. As The Orang Kita Would Say, "Memang Puas Hati Lah Ni Kali".

The Post Mortem.

I'm Sorry That The Video Crew Couldn't Make It To This Gig. But We Manage To Shoot Some Footage, The Video Footage Will Be Passed To The Video Crew To See What They Can Make Out Of It. Well,The Pictures Will Be Uploaded Soon. Due To The Lack Of Space and Crowd Moshing, It Is Hard To Shoot At The Desired Angle. This Is Not A Complaint But Just A Reminder For The Consideration :).

Once Again. We At Revolution On Motion Apologizes For Anything Wrong That We Did or Said.

Sincerely Mike,
The Most Likeable Person At R.O.M

Post Mortem : Extreme Mayhemic

Extreme Mayhemic 2009

Finally. It's time for me to write something.

Last gigs (25th July 2009) at Razz Ma Tazz, it was quite tiring to wait, and it was SUNNY that day.While waiting, we could hear bands doing their sound check. We've been waiting for almost 5 hours, and around 2pm or 3pm, we finally got in.

Inside.
We took pictures of the preparation. Ahaz and i walked up to 2nd floor, whilst mike and another newcomer are down there taking pictures. And manage to snap some "behind-the-scene" pictures and post it without hurting any animal or Ahaz. (as you guys can see now on our blog)

Event.
We are very sorry for this part. We only managed to capture videos and snap pictures on half of the band listed. Again. We managed to get a load of Sweet Mary Jane, Trogolodyte, Morbius and Perpetual. We got their videos and we snap their pictures. And during filming of the gigs, mike managed to snap pictures of another band, Barbaland during their preparation to perform. Mike also asked me to take a picture of him and the band (as you can see below). Awesome.

And again. Us, from Revolution On Motion! are really sorry that we couldn't film the other bands during this gigs, due to some unforseen reasons. We're still new and we're lacking in manpower, but rest assured, we're trying our best to promote local music scene.

The Gist on something you might want to know.
Bloody Anatomies
Goresluts

They are the 2 bands from KL that came to KK to perform in this gigs. Thanks to them for supporting our local music scene in Sabah Tanah Airku. Peace and respect for you guys!

Once again. Us, from Revolution On Motion! apologize for anything wrong that we did or said. And we're also sorry for the videos that had been long put on hold. We'll get to it A.S.A.P.
