All Twestival Kota Kinabalu 2010 performances were recorded by MSJ Media so we’ll be releasing them as they become available (total of 8 songs). Here is the third song, a cover of Come Fly With Me remixed with Girl from Ipanema instrumentals by Roger Wang and Angelina Perete! Enjoy…

Two and a half weeks ago, I was nudged by a friend in Hong Kong to get involved in Twestival. Out on a whim, I decided to enter KK as a participant in hope of throwing a small tweet-up party with a few friends on 25th March 2010. My goal was to raise awareness for Concern Worldwide’s cause for education and get a few friends to contribute. Instead 100 over people came and gave in ways big and small. Here are some of the moments captured forever on film…

Here’s part two, Change the World!

I’m mighty proud of Gerry Kong of MSJ Media for having produced this video of Roger and Angelina’s performance. Here’s one of many videos to come… enjoy Every Breath You Take!

I’m really excited to announce that I signed up Kota Kinabalu to get involved in the Twestival Global 2010 initiative. Check out the video!

Twestival to put it in the simplest terms is a Twitter festival that happens one day, once a year where people get together for a tweet-up party to raise money for charity. This year 200 cities will get together on 25th March 2010 to raise money for Concern Worldwide, who are helping the poorest kids in the world go to school.

We’re currently looking for volunteers and sponsors at the moment, and if you’d like to help follow @kktwestival @fooz @twestival @concern @twestivalasia and drop us a line here kktwestival@gmail.com with your name and contacts. In the coming days, we’ll have more information on how you can participate!
