Year 2004.. Fadhly decided to form a rock band with his cousin Eirfan as he would like to explore more in his music writing. So it was originally an acoustic 2 piece band playing acoustic guitars with Fadhly on vocals. Their very first live performance was performed at the National University of Singapore GuildHouse for the cardiac family day for Cardiology Department of National University Hospital. They played an original piece called 'The Precious Moment' under the name of Pink Stiletto Experiment.
The band eventually changed the name to Pink Stiletto. Later, PS added in Dynn, Eirfan's secondary schooolmate of Bukit Panjang Government High School as their drummer. PS started jamming a few times with the introduction of two new songs, 'Invasion' and 'People Like You'. Fadhly recruited Alvyn from the internet as PS's drummer as Dynn picks up the electric guitar for the first time. They had fun times jamming for two more session till Alvyn left the band for personal reason. PS were back to square one but managed to rope in Faizal, another Eirfan's ex-schoolmate to be PS's bassist.
BUt.. Faizal decided to leave the band as academic demand was too tight for him to handle....
Fortunately Rob was recruited to be our drummer. The band was glad to have found a good drummer finally. Hahn was recruited by Fadhly in NUH while doing his attachment there. Hahn at that time was playing in a metal band, decided to join PS's quest.
Finally Pink Stiletto line-up was complete for their maiden gig 'Wireless Session' at The Substation on 18th June 2005.
Soon after the gig, Rob left the band for no reason at all..
Faizal, PS's ex-bassist was invited back to be the band's vocalist taking over Fadhly's role. Faizal managed to introduce Vik, his schoolmate in Junior College to be PS's 3rd drummer. Vik blew the band with his dazzling drumming strokes in our jamming sesion. Pink Stiletto has found THE drummer! The band managed to secure a gig at Singapore Expo which was organized by HeartrockSingapore on the 20th August 2005.

A year has passed since the last gig. The six members of the band decided to take a break from their jamming, gigging and recording to pursue their other worldly matters. The next post will begin the life of each members in regards with music and non-music stuffs.
Pink Stiletto is not dead...

22nd April 2006, Marine Cove East Coast. After a four months break, we had our 4th gig organised by Heartrock Singapore at this wonderful place. Four bands were performing that evening and ours was the second band. The other bands are REI, Fastrack and Terminal Cry. We gathered at Mc Donald's with an inclusion of our good friend Zulfa who was the Videoman that day ( thanks man! ).
As we reached the gig area, the first band REI was preparing their set. We were shocked to see REI in FULL UNIFORM. J-Rock influenced as what we were told with full make-ups. They played Japanese rock pieces.
7pm - It was our turn to showcase our pieces... err.. I mean songs.
1) Invasion ( instrumental: original ) - We were afraid that the audience might find the song too scary..what the heck! We invaded East Coast!
2) People Like You ( original ) - We saw an 'Ang moh' kid dancing along with the song..pretty funny.
3) Forever In Dreams ( ballads: original ) - Slowed down a bit with this track, got chance to relax before the next. Lots of applause for this particular one.???? ( strange but true ).
4) Seven Bubbles ( instrumental: original ) - New intro with Fad's solo...ok...got everyone include ourselves shocked!
5) You Give Love A Bad Name ( Bon Jovi ) - WE SCREWED UPPPP!! Most of the audience can relate the song with few of them humming the chorus with us..but...WE SCREWED UUP!
6) What Can I Say ( ballads: original ) - Aaahh...relax time again...
7) Don't Sweat The Little Stuff ( original ) - Haha..our favourite! Dynn went all the way towards the audience during the solo part followed by Han and Eirfan. Rocked da' house!
8) Seven Bubbles- Encore
In conclusion, our best performance so far! More work to be done for us Pinksters to elevate to a higher level of providing entertaining rock show on stage!
Many thanks to Anthony ( gig organiser ), Zulfa ( Videoman ), Lili and boyfriend for the photo shoots. Thanks also to our other friends who came all tthe way from the west side to watch us perform.
