Can you please confirm if there is any truth in this? As soon as possible, pretty, pretty, please.

I only have 2 days of annual leave left and I will be really busy with my job next month. But I will find my way to book that flight from London to Kuala Lumpur for PJ's first ever show in my home country.

14 years since my first show in Singapore.

Thanks to Ed for wiping his sweat with my Malaysian flag at Shepherds Bush show in August.

And forever grateful to Stone for getting down the Pistoia stage in 2006 and then giving me his guitar pick and saying thank you to me.

I'm pleading...begging. Please - yes or no?

    hahah. Pak Bong was the man! We were all sitting in class waiting for the teacher of PLANT BIO (i mean come on!) On the chalk board it said "Pak Bong." We all assumed it was some plant joke... But then this tiny little man walked in, the biggest nerd ever, and said, in horrible english, Hi! I am Pak Bong! The whole class busted out laughing! He was clueless. He was so innocent everyone eventually loved him. Pak Bong, what a legend.

    I bet you do - I would've loved to have been in that class . . . oh the inside jokes I could've made off of that. I bet your class was a riot, having a Plant Bio class taught by Pak Bong - now that is CLASSIC!!!

    BTW -- I'm still laughing about this . . . can't wait to tell all of my bud-dies :D
