Welcome!

We're starting the new year with a friendly blog on live local music since everyone else is on to politix and obamamia. There's a lot going in the music world in malaysia and loads of local talent that keeps going unnoticed.
Most media sites talk about the new music of deejays and synthesised house music and ignoring the hours of hard work put in by musicians and singers.
So, this blog will focus on live stuff that goes at pubs, clubs and concert stages.
If you have something constructive to contribute please do so. This includes your own favourite places and bands.
Do try to keep the recording scene out of this blog as it takes up enough space everywhere. We're looking at giving aspiring artistes who slog for hours every night the break they deserve.
But if you do hear of recording artistes going live onstage somewhere do let us know and we'll head out there and review their minus-one trax.
Our team will be covering all kinds of music so don't let music genres stop you from writing in to us.
And always feel free to forward this to your friends so that they will know where to go and spend their valuable time and money.
The email address for this blog is themusicdetective@gmail.com.
Bye for now. Let's hear it for good music.
