Thursday, July 6th, 2006Recently, SMK Tinggi Klang or High School Klang had emerged as the champion marching band in the entire Selangor state where they had beaten the former national champion SMK Katholik, PJ, and in addition, SMK Kwang Hua, Klang grapped the 2nd runner-up spot during the Selangor Marching Band 2006 held in Stadium Selayang, Selangor.

Over the years, I don’t think some of us have even realised that there is a marching band in SMK Tinggi Klang, but now, they have created history for themselves, they have beaten the national champion, for your information, SMK Katholik, Pj has been voted as national champion twice before and now they have been defeated. Congrats SMK Tinggi Klang, you have made ‘Klang Bandar Diraja’ proud.
What about our FirstKlang band?
Back to basics:
FirstKlang band a marching band?
Ya.. I think so.. we have a band.. we march.. we r a marching band
Do we entertained the crowds?
Obviously, we play good music, not noise
sometimes we r over excited that’s the time the rythm out abit..
stil okay.. i think we stil manage to entertain their ears.
What’s the difference between SMK Tinggi Klang band n FirstKlang Band?
Not much.. we r humans.. have a pair of hands, legs.. completely normal. They have a good bandmaster.. well we have Mr Goh.. as good as they are.. They have more instruments.. true true.. we have lesser but we’ll buy all of them soon… erm.. they play musics notes.. we too.. they have more members.. ya ya ya i know.. n we gona get more members soon.. all of that not really problems huh.. not much differences actually.. we r stil playin musics.
Actually there’s not much differences between them and us. More instruments? More members? Hmmnn.. i think that’s a matter of time.. Great team has great depth.. so as a Great band has great depth. They have been thru hard times.. jus like us now.. and bcos they hav their past.. look now they have their history.. great achievement indeed.. Look at FirstJB Band..
NOW YOU KNOW WHERE YOU STAND….. so what you gona do now ?
THEY CAN DO IT.. YOU CAN DO IT.. WE CAN DO IT.. FIRSTKLANG CAN DO IT…
