A wedding is always glamorous only entertainment will make it a memorable one. Further, the client said that there are some of the guests who want to sing a few songs.<br /><br /></p><p>After listening to the person on the other end, I suggested instead of a duo they should go for a DJ who has a lot of Karaoke tracks where all the songs needed to be sung will be entertained.</p><p>Next time when you are looking for a band, come over to this Blog for advise. </p>Anthony Fonsekahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09280184211071015942noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2659172434461818976.post-33632640698743940762023-06-05T11:19:00.003+05:302023-06-05T11:19:44.246+05:30What You Must Know Before booking a Band for a Wedding<p> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2014/11/13/17/04/heart-529607_1280.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="532" data-original-width="800" height="213" src="https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2014/11/13/17/04/heart-529607_1280.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><span style="font-size: large;">Are you gonna have your wedding?</span><p></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">Read this before you book your entertainment for the wedding.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">Remember most of us celebrate our only wedding only once in our lifetime.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">A wedding is always glamorous but entertainment will make it a memorable one.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">Here are a few guidelines for you to have the best entertainment for your D-Day.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">1. Select a few names of the good bands you know.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">2. Ask a few close friends to recommend a few bands.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">3. Ask for quotations from them and bring down the list according to the budget you will allocate for the band.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">4. Go and visit them to see how they fare if they are on contract on a regular basis.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">5. Visit their website, Facebook page, Blog, YouTube channel, etc...... Check how long they have been playing music together.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">6. Check whether they are their permanent members or if there are any freelance players in the band when it comes to an event. (There are many fake bands in this country at present)</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">7. Check whether they are using their own sound or hired sound.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">8. A wedding consists of an age group between 8 and 80 years. Check your guest list and see who the majority is? Know that your band for the wedding is capable of playing the songs you prefer. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></p><p><br /></p>Anthony Fonsekahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09280184211071015942noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2659172434461818976.post-41871631282095041082023-05-20T13:01:00.000+05:302023-05-20T13:01:13.299+05:30Unleashing the Rhythm: Mastering the Art of Punchy Bass Playing<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgq_RhQFn_lMaPwBPuVO41bdumA9MzJ-3ltj13vShBHAPBc3iCtF9E_H9GQKOlNCyxTYyN-e3-fazEGOK0_rCuex0bG-G5oknTw_zA02E7nP0opUTZdR0liqO4Iqljt-5T088QZrOw9iSBSBJrGAjq4BN_mrn1lX7gG9_9WMUZTeOtc1HvTcDABz-2_kg/s972/tune-guitar-technology-twb5-36562.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="285" data-original-width="972" height="118" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgq_RhQFn_lMaPwBPuVO41bdumA9MzJ-3ltj13vShBHAPBc3iCtF9E_H9GQKOlNCyxTYyN-e3-fazEGOK0_rCuex0bG-G5oknTw_zA02E7nP0opUTZdR0liqO4Iqljt-5T088QZrOw9iSBSBJrGAjq4BN_mrn1lX7gG9_9WMUZTeOtc1HvTcDABz-2_kg/w400-h118/tune-guitar-technology-twb5-36562.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><p></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">Unleashing the Rhythm: Mastering the Art of Punchy Bass Playing</span></p><p><br /></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">Introduction:</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">The bass guitar is the heartbeat of any band, providing the foundation and driving force of the music. To truly make an impact and create a memorable groove, mastering the art of punchy bass playing is essential. Punchy bass lines add depth, power, and intensity to a song, allowing the bassist to leave a lasting impression on listeners. In this article, we will explore techniques and tips to help you develop a punchy playing style that will make your bass lines stand out.</span></p><p><br /></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">Solid Technique:</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">Developing a solid technique is crucial for achieving a punchy bass sound. Start by ensuring proper finger placement and hand positioning. Use your fingertips to pluck the strings, creating a firm and controlled attack. Experiment with different fingerstyle techniques, such as plucking with your index and middle fingers or using a combination of fingerstyle and slap/pop techniques. Practicing scales, arpeggios, and exercises will strengthen your technique, enabling you to execute punchy bass lines with precision and accuracy.</span></p><p><br /></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">Emphasize the Root Notes:</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">The root notes provide the foundation of the chord progression and give the music its harmonic structure. To create a punchy bass line, emphasize the root notes by playing them with intention and clarity. Use a combination of sustained notes and short, staccato bursts to add emphasis and drive. Experiment with sliding into the root note or incorporating octave jumps to create variation and make the bass line more dynamic.</span></p><p><br /></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">Lock in with the Drummer:</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">The bass and drums work hand in hand to create a tight rhythm section. To achieve a punchy sound, it is crucial to establish a strong connection with the drummer. Listen carefully to the drummer's kick drum and snare patterns, and sync your bass lines accordingly. Locking in with the drummer's rhythm will enhance the overall groove and make your bass lines more impactful. Pay attention to the space between the drum hits and use them strategically to accentuate your notes.</span></p><p><br /></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">Effective Use of Dynamics:</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">Dynamics play a significant role in creating a punchy bass sound. Experiment with variations in volume and intensity to add depth and emotion to your playing. Start with a solid foundation and gradually increase the volume or intensity for specific sections or to emphasize particular notes. Utilize techniques like ghost notes (subtle, muted notes) or accents to highlight key moments in the music. The contrast between softer and louder passages will make your bass lines more dynamic and captivating.</span></p><p><br /></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">Tone and Gear:</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">The right tone and gear can significantly enhance the punchiness of your bass playing. Experiment with different settings on your bass guitar and amplifier to find a tone that suits your style and complements the music. Consider using a pick for a more aggressive attack or employing techniques like palm muting to achieve a punchier sound. Additionally, investing in high-quality bass strings and ensuring proper setup and maintenance of your instrument will contribute to a more consistent and powerful tone.</span></p><p><br /></p><p><span style="font-size: large;">Conclusion:</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">Mastering the art of punchy bass playing is a journey that requires dedication, practice, and a keen sense of rhythm. By developing a solid technique, emphasizing root notes, locking in with the drummer, utilizing effective dynamics, and refining your tone and gear, you can elevate your bass playing to new heights. Remember, it's not just about playing the right notes but about delivering them with impact and conviction. With time and experience, you will develop your unique punchy style that sets you apart as a standout bassist. So, plug in, groove on, and let your bass lines leave an indelible mark on the music!</span></p><p> </p>Anthony Fonsekahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09280184211071015942noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2659172434461818976.post-45779864223974582382022-11-02T07:46:00.000+05:302022-11-02T07:46:05.144+05:30The Perfect Sound Engineer<p> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjv_AUDGaHRZmz6NUXOl7iWzmTM5oXMMS8ZIdcOlgADWRj8Mw9D5wecdaszqYJWl42vYGSEd3C2H-WtfMp1Ht5a2dsjGwFd9cBSSX3Gl9xWM-bMWm1025KsVTln0gm8wZ04xagOdG789gvh1uO76Ab5FGSUQ4VeeleaJIaDXN7N-sSvkdjIBeD8hoxGcA/s275/download.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="183" data-original-width="275" height="183" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjv_AUDGaHRZmz6NUXOl7iWzmTM5oXMMS8ZIdcOlgADWRj8Mw9D5wecdaszqYJWl42vYGSEd3C2H-WtfMp1Ht5a2dsjGwFd9cBSSX3Gl9xWM-bMWm1025KsVTln0gm8wZ04xagOdG789gvh1uO76Ab5FGSUQ4VeeleaJIaDXN7N-sSvkdjIBeD8hoxGcA/s1600/download.jpg" width="275" /></a></div><span style="font-size: medium;">In most live performances, the man behind the controls plays the biggest role though he/she stays behind. The final balance will affect a final performance whether it is an orchestral event or a drama. or a live band set-up.</span><p></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">Generally, an audience comprises of the lovers of that event, invited guests, and 5% of people who know something about music.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">A critical ear will always hear when a performance is in balance or not though they do not understand the technical side of it.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">The back line of a stage will determine how that performance will be, for example, a guitar with old strings will sound dead than a guitar with a new set of strings. in situations like this, the engineer should stay on the frequency chart never trying to get the sound right by increasing frequencies.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">Just check the chart below.</span></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhk9MM4ADCVQOyQ1q9z_Hu9FuEgP_um-lYu8fvXvJlps9w5eRqhGBViQlxZIY7Yi8dcqJ14IjzVR94Tsh1X_m_6N4RfOti0TZqDtf6dFnOBhhqlAAQ0AitKLwNEePLwiG-FK8curklZ-KqtVMBborMYCoT22ZcNwmXmWwXPk3k-TfDon8FNvvEYGHePeg/s750/eq-chart_feature.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="380" data-original-width="750" height="203" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhk9MM4ADCVQOyQ1q9z_Hu9FuEgP_um-lYu8fvXvJlps9w5eRqhGBViQlxZIY7Yi8dcqJ14IjzVR94Tsh1X_m_6N4RfOti0TZqDtf6dFnOBhhqlAAQ0AitKLwNEePLwiG-FK8curklZ-KqtVMBborMYCoT22ZcNwmXmWwXPk3k-TfDon8FNvvEYGHePeg/w400-h203/eq-chart_feature.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br /><span style="font-size: medium;"><br />Any frequency that will go beyond these limits will produce disastrous results. The same will apply to a drum set that produces cross-talk as most of them are assembled together. The toms will be on top of the bass drum. If an unwanted frequency is opting to produce an overtone, the engineer should first identify which part of the drum set is making that overtone before attempting to reduce it. The following chart will give you a basic idea of the frequencies according to the overtone note.</span><p></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;"></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgFc1fDdQVMV8PgVLxO9qGxXSa7OeoneVmNKSG1rPnbVSFSKHhv_IcT2-D07lnkDYzSqui4L5IXCwtMFIlt-3cdACRcWgt404BktH36LoF8T6hbkCnjC0dX1P3f8c2ksaPxpJ-OP64n-MDGk204Y6nwoB4gadVDPUL6GwMeHQEvPfp10l9pO6j8LmSVaQ/s673/notes.gif" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="673" data-original-width="487" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgFc1fDdQVMV8PgVLxO9qGxXSa7OeoneVmNKSG1rPnbVSFSKHhv_IcT2-D07lnkDYzSqui4L5IXCwtMFIlt-3cdACRcWgt404BktH36LoF8T6hbkCnjC0dX1P3f8c2ksaPxpJ-OP64n-MDGk204Y6nwoB4gadVDPUL6GwMeHQEvPfp10l9pO6j8LmSVaQ/w290-h400/notes.gif" width="290" /></a></span></div><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /> An engineer should always have cleaned ears. Wet cleaning is advised. In creating good sound, a musician should always remember that a good engineer will always produce better results than a musician. When it comes to a full orchestral environment with so many microphones involved, a good engineer will stay put accordingly to the frequency range of the instruments. When it comes to a drama, the engineer will have very distinct stereo separations to bring life to the drama.</span><p></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">If you do not have more than five years of experience in sound creation as an audio engineer, we recommend that you follow the following engineers for guidance as they are a few of the best audio engineers in the world.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;">1.

A super band was booked as well for the event. This singer sends two of his tracks by WhatsApp for the band to go through the parts. On the day of the event, this singer comes drunk and call out songs and was upset after sending the songs the band is not ready. He announces over the microphone and informs the audience that the band is not ready with his songs.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">However the band has rehearsed the songs he sent and as the singer concerned is drunk, he has forgotten the songs he sent for rehearsals. after getting down the band leader shows the singer the songs he sent through WhatsApp and found he had erred. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">Because of this kind the band decides never to give him accompaniment hereafter. It is very important to know that guest singers charge a lot of money to sing at events but the bands are backing them without any charge. Hereafter, all bands should insist that a singer pays for rehearsals if they need any backing on stage. If all bands decide, this will solve a major problem in the music industry in Sri Lanka.</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">Also all bands should refrain from backing drunk singers whether they are professionals or amateurs.</span></p>Anthony Fonsekahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09280184211071015942noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2659172434461818976.post-83828726678125716582022-10-01T09:55:00.000+05:302022-10-01T09:55:15.282+05:30The Best Weddings<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhuHcFTmIbRXTicSPRCE324Ow6TFEjHMAj6jEE-C4L3UZrfHKEaFMgpaBbpPXDoBC10MXFym5CgDwCZg5Ff91B5WtuF_pWvfyunMLbzdU5leigpKbbGAzIyl7ha7JqC9FQEonQzY_2tODS0cXCUD3OiJIrTRWm2VQtQlxWilJgMw4RMFN3FizDq7FsO2A/s4256/Couple_at_a_wedding_ceremony_in_Indonesia.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2832" data-original-width="4256" height="213" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhuHcFTmIbRXTicSPRCE324Ow6TFEjHMAj6jEE-C4L3UZrfHKEaFMgpaBbpPXDoBC10MXFym5CgDwCZg5Ff91B5WtuF_pWvfyunMLbzdU5leigpKbbGAzIyl7ha7JqC9FQEonQzY_2tODS0cXCUD3OiJIrTRWm2VQtQlxWilJgMw4RMFN3FizDq7FsO2A/s320/Couple_at_a_wedding_ceremony_in_Indonesia.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><span style="font-size: large;">The best wedding is a memorable wedding.</span><p></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">How do we have such a wedding?</span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;">1.

veteran Mr. Lincoln De Silva on the 12<sup>th</sup> day of June 1972. </span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; tab-stops: 49.5pt;"><span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-size: medium;">After two
years this band faced a split and Mr. Lincoln De Silva named his band “SUPER
PINK & PURPLE” while I continued with “PINK & PURPLE” led by Mr. Ivan
De Silva who became the new band leader. </span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; tab-stops: 49.5pt;"><span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-size: medium;">In early 1974 I had to leave that band
and my rhythm guitar playing ended with that and I started playing bass. I was
given a part-time job with the band “PIONEERS” led by Raj Dassanayake. </span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; tab-stops: 49.5pt;"><span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Then in
1975, I got the break to perform with “ANTOINETTE & THE GAYLORDS led by Antoinette
De Alwis. My dream at that time was to play with the most popular “SUPER GOLDEN
CHIMES” and I was offered to play with them by Mr. Nimal Perera who was the
drummer of the band at that time. I joined “SUPER GOLDEN CHIMES” led by the Late
great Clarence Wijewardane on the 2<sup>nd</sup> day of March 1977 and would
call the best days of my life. </span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; tab-stops: 49.5pt;"><span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-size: medium;">In 1980 June I left the shores of Sri Lanka to
join “SERENDIB” led by Mr. Indra Raj in Switzerland. </span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; tab-stops: 49.5pt;"><span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Came back to Sri Lanka in
1981 December to get married and formed my own band “SUPER” and went back to
Europe in 1982. </span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; tab-stops: 49.5pt;"><span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-size: medium;">There I faced a dispute of trust and vacated the band, came
back to Sri Lanka, and formed my second band “CHAMPAGNE” which finally became
“KINGS” in 1983. </span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; tab-stops: 49.5pt;"><span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Took “KINGS Band” to Europe once again in 1984. In 1992, we
disbanded and opened up the “NAC” recording studio. During this time the studio
recorded more than 5000 songs and most of the time I was a part of it. </span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; tab-stops: 49.5pt;"><span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-size: medium;">In 2002
again “KINGS” band was formed and up to this date, the band is functioning.
During this time period of music, I got the chance of playing with the cream of
musicians in Sri Lanka who were better players and musicians than me. </span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; tab-stops: 49.5pt;"><span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-size: medium;">I have
worked with more than 40 musicians and 9 female singers in my time and I take
pleasure in thanking all of them at this moment. I have written more than 200
songs and have played bass for more than 5000 songs. Directed music for more
than 400 songs while recording more than 1000 songs. I have made money and provided
my family with what I got but, I made more friends than money during this time.
As I am completing 50 years in music today and as I know that there won’t be
any fanfare for me, I just thought of saying to all of you, THANK YOU.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0in; tab-stops: 49.5pt;"><span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-size: medium;">I take this opportunity to thank my
present band members, Asanka Jayawardane, Vinuri Randhula Silva, Nethanga
Fernando and Pandula Jayaweera. I am glad that they are here with me today and
we are still contributing to the industry by being the resident band at The

In the event that you are keen on turning into a bass guitarist you really want to get to know bass music by playing the bass lines of a portion of your main tunes before you let your inward bass player off the chain. Using this helpful device you can figure out how to be the bass player in a band rapidly without getting a lot into exhausting hypotheses.</span></div><div><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-size: medium;">The bass player's occupation is just to keep time. Nothing could be simpler. Until you attempt to make it happen. So what is really involved? The low-pitch guitar player keeps time by playing a 'bassline' which is normally a musical' grouping of notes. The bass player unites the musical playing of the drummer with the tunes and harmonies played by the lead guitarist. Should you be a capable performer to do this? Indeed you do. The bass player is the person who switches off his cerebrum and becomes one with the progression of the music. He then turns his cerebrum back on and becomes the assigned driver until the end of the band.</span></div><div><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-size: medium;">A fledgling bass guitarist may not quickly have the option to follow (or lead) the remainder of the band right all along. You could require a material to work no sweat into the gig. The bass tab gives the guitar player composed headings on what to play to give the bass line a tune. Sheet music is a composed portrayal of the strings of the guitar utilizing numbers to show the frets. If you have any desire to gain proficiency with the low register guitar rapidly tab will help you. It is not difficult to get and to recall, and it empowers you to get familiar with the riffs and expressions you want to give design for your band's music.</span></div><div><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-size: medium;">
</span></div><div><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-size: medium;">A low register guitar tab is an image of the fretboard which can be drawn utilizing Notepad on your PC or on the other hand, on the off chance that you like, the hard way. The frets are numbered on lines addressing the guitar strings. On the off chance that you have a four-string bass, the upper string is the G string, next the D string, the A string, and the E string. The numbers beneath the lines are the frets where the notes are played. Assuming there is zero underneath the line it implies the open string is played. A harmony is addressed in low-pitch guitar tabs by two numbers, one over the other. Most low-pitch guitar tabs contain a legend that makes sense of any new terms.</span></div><div><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-size: medium;">With the historical backdrop of awesome music returning for ages, tabs are accessible for any melody you can imagine. The web is by a long shot the best hotspot for bass tabs. Simply do a Google search and you will have more material than you will at any point require. You should simply learn and rehearse. Learn and rehearse your main tunes first. Low register guitar is certainly not an instrument you can approach without energy. Bass riffs can be gained from tab books however ought to be played from the heart.</span></div><div></div>Anthony Fonsekahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09280184211071015942noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2659172434461818976.post-15929683635384893582022-08-26T08:19:00.004+05:302022-09-20T15:13:03.665+05:30HISTORIA DE UN AMORE BY KINGS BAND<iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen="" autoplay="1" frameborder="0" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/RRU7L-c7GT8?autoplay=1" title="YouTube video player" width="560"></iframe>Anthony Fonsekahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09280184211071015942noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2659172434461818976.post-18824550024441669132022-05-04T08:51:00.004+05:302022-09-20T15:34:55.280+05:30Publicity<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhoDP50CeN2d33gQ99WvdFsm_2fy00za6oQLyiNlWou-XtLU3J7UdtlvuftjgeE-cXVcc1t42UoO65OS9jrJt7Znv1YkWhAi-EVAeq02Jh5KKQ2tRiiQwbuABsHSjeW4-I7Bqnkd3VSZslXWSYz_dZkXyV72KEopzWA5Dwji--PNcXQiNWZbEzyTmVVPA/s349/Picture1.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="109" data-original-width="349" height="63" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhoDP50CeN2d33gQ99WvdFsm_2fy00za6oQLyiNlWou-XtLU3J7UdtlvuftjgeE-cXVcc1t42UoO65OS9jrJt7Znv1YkWhAi-EVAeq02Jh5KKQ2tRiiQwbuABsHSjeW4-I7Bqnkd3VSZslXWSYz_dZkXyV72KEopzWA5Dwji--PNcXQiNWZbEzyTmVVPA/w200-h63/Picture1.png" width="200" /></a></div><br /> Dear friends,<p></p><p>As the situation in Sri Lanka is in a precarious frame Kings Band will not be giving any publicity for their events until further notice.</p><p>Yours truly,</p><p>Chandral.</p>Anthony Fonsekahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09280184211071015942noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2659172434461818976.post-76725609264254876732021-10-06T18:19:00.005+05:302022-09-20T14:16:10.067+05:30YOHANI AND MANGING HER FAME.<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjEPBpVh8KCOa2G6O0GU8NYt1R6sooDb2__i98KWNZEDsOIodYpUvQm2usRXT7FoV7AIROjzuOw_dsfNc-sc9MxTys2d0c5CODP5MCFXrz6VxpqMuL5qRWnGjguC4ZKO7SK3AUkQrEzNpAY/s499/12304080_10207724335523667_2596335177790816467_o-removebg-preview.png" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="499" data-original-width="499" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjEPBpVh8KCOa2G6O0GU8NYt1R6sooDb2__i98KWNZEDsOIodYpUvQm2usRXT7FoV7AIROjzuOw_dsfNc-sc9MxTys2d0c5CODP5MCFXrz6VxpqMuL5qRWnGjguC4ZKO7SK3AUkQrEzNpAY/s320/12304080_10207724335523667_2596335177790816467_o-removebg-preview.png" width="320" /></a></div><br /> <p></p><p class="MsoNormal">I will be completing 50 years of music next year. It was a
long journey and I met some fantastic personalities during this time. It was a pleasure associating with them and getting my nourishment from them. First, I was a rhythm
guitarist and had only one talent. I improved that ability so that today I am
what I am. I will write more of myself in the near future but the reason for me to
blog this post has a very special meaning to it.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Before all, I am very happy to observe and enjoy the feet we
enjoy in our music industry with Yohani De Silva’s newest song “Menike Mage
Hithe” becoming a world hit. I believe it was long due but as we were all concentrating
only on the local music industry, we could not reach that point until now.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">During my 50 years of music, I met so many who had the
talent and ability to reach this standard but due to bad management all went
flip flop and the time it took to reach this level was delayed.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In the 1990’s I met a young singer who had the ability to become
another H R Jothipala. He had the potential and charisma to reach that pinnacle
but soon I realized that he will not go that far as he did not have a proper
manager who will pull all the strings behind the stage. At one time during any
given weekend, he had more than 15 performances lined up for him. People
canceled their musical shows if he was unavailable. He went down faster than
he came due to band handling of popularity.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I believe popularity should be handled by separate individuals
as management is is very different to performing.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Gypsies had their late father Mr. Anton Perera as their
manager who was a top businessman. Super Golden Chimes had Mr. Nelu Fernando as
their manager and yet again was a top businessman in Sri Lanka and still
maintain that level in Sri Lanka. Jet Liners had Mr. Tony Fernando yet again
as a top manager and the owner of Lewis Brown. Spit Fires had Mr. Marshie
Perera. All these bands above had top-notch managers to look into all aspects
of the performance of their respective bands. But none of them reached the
pinnacle of international fame other than our own Yohani De Silva.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Some might want to say it is luck but I see it as an opportunity. The
next five years will reveal how Yohani will handle her fame. Being a musician
and a bandleader/manager/proprietor I want to believe that she will handle
fame right and will continue to be the international star of our country while
helping many more to reach the pinnacle. Only the future will reveal how all this
will unfold in front of our eyes.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">What Yohani needs to have today is a very qualified manager.
Naturally, jealousies are building up against her all the time and they will
come as blessings but will work against her carrier when put to work. The
future will reveal all these to the music-loving Sri Lankans in the near
future. But being the leader of <a href="https://kingsband.lk" target="_blank">Kings Band</a> I wish her more success in her
future endeavors. <o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal">Love you all.</p><p class="MsoNormal">Chandral.</p>Anthony Fonsekahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09280184211071015942noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2659172434461818976.post-66547021667727755872021-10-05T13:22:00.004+05:302022-09-20T15:14:24.789+05:30WONDERFUL WORLD COVER BY KINGS BAND.<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/TTGWxU-NPuo?autoplay=1" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe>Anthony Fonsekahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09280184211071015942noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2659172434461818976.post-13065803789013275732021-01-23T06:36:00.002+05:302022-09-20T15:15:20.904+05:30Here comes our newest song featuring Vinuri Randhula Silva<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/Ko9E1_oJ36Y?autoplay=1" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen></iframe>Anthony Fonsekahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09280184211071015942noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2659172434461818976.post-91857214322479940502020-11-21T09:25:00.002+05:302022-09-20T15:15:47.440+05:30The newest song of Kings band.

Friends,</h2><p>This is a true love story penned down to a song by late Mr. Robert M Rodrigo in the latter part of the 60s'. I heard this song for the first time when I was 14 years of age at a friend's place. My friend is Fadil Jaleel. At that time, he was trying to get a Calypso group going and most of the time he had music in his house. As I was also suffering from music fever at that time, I used to visit his place very often. This is how I came to know this song and I got a chance to meet Robert Rodrigo at this place one day. </p><p>He sang this song and later related the story behind. He said his friend who faced this sad situation is determined to stay single unto his death. Further, Robert said he wrote the final verse of the song but unable to add or sing with the song until a certain period of time passed.</p><p>Then he sang the last verse and we knew why he can't add that verse. Therefore minus one verse song was very popular from that time until today.</p><p>After about 40 odd years, one day Robert and his wife Mrs Lude Sieble Ferdinando came to our church and I got a chance to talk with him privately about this song and the missing verse. He said he could now sing the verse as his friend kept his word and still stays single and now nearing the age of 60. I proposed him to record the song again but he never showed any interest.</p><p>Exactly 8 months ago I met his wife and obtained permission to re-record the song with <a href="http://www.kingsband.lk">KINGS BAND</a> and that is how it came to you once again with the missing last verse. Already this song has tremendous response from many and please enjoy the song.</p>

Unless you are a person who goes to at least three dinner dances a year, you will not be able to find a correct combination for your dance, when it comes to selecting one for your company.<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Every year all major companies will have their sports committees or the welfare committees appointed with new faces so that rotation of organizing power and doing something better than the previous year will be the idea behind it.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
If you are the one who will be responsible to find the entertainment part for an event or dinner dance, you need to be a person who understands the taste of the music of your colleagues have when it comes to an annual dinner dance. This depends on the age group and the percentages of males and females who will attend the dinner dance. A good and a perfect balance will be 50/50 which means if the people who are attending are 500, 250 males and 250 females.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
When these figures cannot be achieved the entertainment balance will also change accordingly and the music in need will automatically change.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Supposing your crowd is 65/35 the taste of music will also change to what the majority of men would like to dance to. Therefore when you are selecting a <b><a href="http://www.kingsband.lk/" target="_blank">BAND</a></b> for your dinner dance, you need to consider all these points before making the commitment and confirm the <a href="http://www.kingsband.lk/" target="_blank"><b>BAND</b></a>. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Hope this little article helps you in many ways when it comes to selecting the <b><a href="http://www.kingsband.lk/" target="_blank">BAND</a></b> for your function.</div>
