The first time I’ve seen Aidil performed was under the moniker Bubby & Flo, at a gig organised by the students of the University of North London held at The Rocket on Holloway Road, back in 1998. I remembered that the organisers were going on about the singer/guitarist of Bubby & Flo already having a band (with a demo or two to boot) back in Malaysia. Bubby & Flo played a chilled set of 60’s Motown-esque covers (if my memory serves me correct – also, I am not sure if they played an original tune), with Aidil playing a right-handed Epi Slash Les Paul (complete with the Snakepit logo) upside down, backed by another guitarist and a drummer. Yup, no bassist was in sight. Little did I know then that the band he fronted back in Malaysia was called Couple (in its primordial form) which would go from strength to strength in the decade to come.
