John, with the MAS plane.
I'll keep it short and sweet alright.
Being in the Michaelian Military Band was like being in a family in a havoc place - things can be really "intimate" and messy at times, seriously! Besides that, people back then used to wonder what kind of band were we. The best thing about it was that we got to show then what MMB is made of, surprising many of them! Hmm... Being a band member was memorable in many ways.
The proudest moment is when we achieved 2nd placing the Perak-Level Band Competition in 2002. I remember my Section Leader saying that it's not the win that counts - it's the teamwork instead. Furthermore, we got to show the audience what MMB-style music and showmanship are about.

We were unique in our own ways.
To the current members of MMB, show everyone what the band is made of and remember to achieve success as a team. Don't just go out there and blast the music - you have to show what true music is okay!
With Pride Shall We March!
