35 colourful music-making years. A remarkable milestone achieved by Bentley Music, Malaysia's largest importer and sole distributor of some of the world's top instrument brands in the country.
Celebrating its 35th anniversary, a lavish dinner was held on 26 Feb 2010 at its very own auditorium in Wisma Bentley, Mutiara Damansara. Ushering in the Year of the Tiger on the 13th day of Chinese New Year, the evening commenced with a lion dance troupe, featuring 2 unique red lions.

Live band music accompanied throughout the night, featuring 'The Strangers', belting familiar trademark tunes from 'The Shadows'. The highlight for the evening was the Elvis segment, following an opening act by Shandy, rendering 2 Chinese New Year songs.

The emcees for the event were none other than ex-RTM Radio 4 announcer, Mr. Alan Zachariah, and the ever-beautiful TV personality, Ms. Hoong Jia Hui. Not surprisingly, she hails from Ipoh... :)
Me with Shandy, the Chinese songbird and Jia Hui, the Emcee for the evening. Our stage performance was extended with repeated encore requests. Towards the end, the guests were dancing the night away with my Rock N Roll songs. The versatile & energetic live band spiced up the atmosphere, giving it an extra boost. The hosts & guests were all smiles, shaking our hands with compliments after our performance.
