Lite, that is. No tomato sauce around this venue. Two posters promoting Cynthia's "Rippingyarns" were the only blatant decor that could be seen. The usual stage was teeming, albeit this time with people instead of useless props. And offstage, both rabid Cynthia fans and well-known personalities of the indie circuit mingled in pseudo-debauchery. Gerry Kaimo of N/A Records and PLDT.com. Ramon Zialcita of LA 105.9. And the musicians! Donna of Fatal Posporos. Buddy of the Eraserheads. Candice of Sugar Free. Kelvin of Itchyworms. Jampacked would be putting it lightly. If I had a buck for every time my ass got touched, I'd have enough for a Bud. Whazzup.
The show started late, about thirty to forty minutes behind schedule. Quality over quantity, that's what I say, and if a little delay would guarantee that we would get our money's worth, so be it!
Cynthia's first set started at around 9:40, when she and her eight-man band (two violins, two cellos, two guitarists [including herself], a keyboardist, and two on percussions) stepped onstage and started playing a funky version of "Rainday," a track from Rippingyarns. The chemistry was absolutely fabulous! Cynthia's Asian ethnic influence was clearly made manifest, much to my delight.
