June Para Para @ The Park!

[PaRaLuKe]

Ever since the two Para Para Bashes in March, I believe much of you who have attended might have been wondering when the next one is...fear not, for THE NEWS is HERE!

June Para Para @ The Park
Location: National Youth Park
Date: 14th June 2002
Time: 1830 - 2130

With similar format to the previous bash @ the park, we would like to invite Para Para teams who would like to have performances to participate in the bash! Just leave us your names , contact number and songs here and we'll contact you asap.

We would also have a teaching session and of course the Mass Dance portion so do keep up with us! Any questions you may post here or send an email to me ([e-mail]). Thanks!

[EuroMarinos]

Yeah man... this is going to be huge!!!

For the information, for those who have not been to the Youth Park before, it's that park opposite the skate park opposite Cineleisure.

One thing that Luke-san didn't mention in the message was that the performance by individual groups would have the following limitations:

- A team not exceeding 8 - the stage isn't exactly big enough
- Your medleys can only be of up to a length of maximum 10 minutes - so no PPP6 special performance, please.
- Submit your nominations to either Luke, myself or Darren by 25 May - no late submissions will be enteretained.

And another thing regarding this event... as there would be a song-teaching session, we sincerely wish that there would be volunteers to teach the crowd one song. The requirement for this teaching session would be:

- 3 persons required (1 for the talking, 2 for demonstration, but the 1 guy would need to be dancing as well)
- Priority will be given to an Avex SEB track.
- Again, please let either Luke, Darren or myself know by 25 May. We'll announce the song to be taught in due course after receiving the nominations.

As far as this event go, if there is anything that you think you might be able to contribute, please do not hesitate to let us know. This is our event, it's everyone's responisibility to make it great. If you have friends who are interested about Para Para, or some 'friends' who like to criticize Para Para being a girlish thing, get them down and let them see for themselves!

So in the meanwhile start your preparations...

-ppp6(anthing) ;D ;D ;D

[EuroMarinos]

Xing An,

Don't worry about that - we've got 3 hours of the event surely there would be some of your fave songs being featured.

By the way Money Go! wasn't in PPP1, it was in this Para Para Kyoden ~stage II~  released in the year 1996 which featured Richie (yah - she was already dancing Para Para then... unbelivable eh?)...

Anyway you can see the tracklist for this Para Para Kyoden ~stage II~ at this URL:

paraparaworld.net/official_video/official_video01.html

And don't bother asking if it's still available - you probably can't even find it at Avex already... the only way, it seems, is to ask Richie herself if she has kept a copy. I mean, no harm trying right?

And in addition to the Para Para @ the Park (and we have a name for it ... EuRoFeSt), there will also be a mass dance held right along the busy main street of Orchard Road. If you have never danced outside Cineleisure, chances are you might just do so on the 9th of June. And we would like to invite EVERYONE to keep this Sunday free and join us for a mass dance.

^{maybe i should have opened a new thread ... but anyway}

Further details will be released to you all soon, like what songs we will be dancing that evening. Hence for those who just can't wait for the Eurofest ... you know what to do.

Seriously, there's more, but if not for the time limit I have at the LAN shop, and the fear of typing half-way and end up disconnected you would have find out by now. Still I believe Luke, Darren and KC will definately keep you updated as the holidays near while we all get events done up.

[EuroMarinos]

You can find the details of the EuRoFeSt! at the following URL:

www.eurofest.cjb.net

This website will be updated regularly to bring you the latest information of the EuRoFeSt! and the preludes to EuRoFeSt! as well. So for any new information, apart from referring to the forum, check out the EuRoFeSt! official website above as well.

[Kuku_Bird]

what? now we have 4 sites to lok out for!!!

paraluke.tripod.com
paraluke.proboards6.com
www.geocities.com/rescend/index2.htm

and now www.eurofest.cjb.net

so many............. i have a suggestion. can we have a universal site instead?

[EuroMarinos]

Well the EuRoFeSt! website is solely dedicated to the EuRoFeSt! and will not feature any other events (perhaps the few preludes to the EuRoFeSt! actual).

William's website, if I'm not wrong, is the official website for Nostalgic Productions - just that he's been updating it with lots of information with the local ParaPara scene.

Luke's website is one that is dedicated to the local ParaPara scene, so you'd see a lot of local news.

As for the forum... well it's part of Luke's website isn't it?

Anyway there are already plans afoot for the one-stop website for the local Para Para community... if you wanna help, check out this thread:

paraluke.proboards6.com/index.cgi?board=announce&action=display&num=1018462436

Looking forward to your continuing support.  

[Kuku_Bird]

well, i've already given luke a token of money some time ago. looks like he needs more "tokens" from us.........

[EuroMarinos]

Appreciated that, but the amount we've collected is still a far shot from the targetted amount... I think we are about 85% away from the actual amount. The main reason why the website is still not up it's because we are still short of money.

Please don't make it sound like we are blood-suckers or something... we understand everyone's situation and not everyone is able to cough up money easily. What we are saying that those who are more willing and more able to contribute, every cent counts.

Forgive me if I misinterpreted, but your tone sounds decidedly hostile. Do you mean to imply that we have somehow cheated you of your money, and now trying to siphon more from you?

I suggest you best explain yourself clearly.

[Kuku_Bird]

well, i understand if people misunderstood me in any way directly or indirectly........

the token may be large and maybe small..... what i have given i considered it small already. wat i am implying is not that there is fraud or whatsoever. i just think that there are not much people contributing (though i dunno how much people has contribted acturally)

we all know luke........ if i think he's abusing the money or whatsoever, i would have kick his ass already......

i may sound serious here but i dun really like to use smileys to express my expressions........ i truely understand people may misunderstood me when i tok to them because of my tone of voice. people who knows me will know what sort of tone i am using when it comes to this sort of discussion. i truely seek everyone's forgiveness if i have ever directly or indirectly offended any guys here or ur frens out there. this is me and this is the way i am. i hope everyone understands

[PaRaLuKe]

/me pats Darren's back

aiyo...be more understanding lah...you think everyone like putting smileys meh? wahahahhaa

[EuroMarinos]

This is a reminder.

For the guys who are interested in putting up a performance / conduct a teaching session on the Eurofest on 14th June, you've about a week to submit your application to the organising committee...

Remember - the deadline for submission is 25th May, which is 8 days from now... don't miss the chance to show your stuff!
