Introduction:

WofB was conceived based on numerous requests made by batches of the 80's and the 90's that they be given the opportunity and the platform to showcase their artistic and musical talents.

KPI or Theme of WofB:

Performers for WofB will comprise groups which can include as their members offsprings of MCOBs. 10 (ten) bands will be shortlisted and they are expected to perform on Friday the 9th of April at 7.45 pm in Hagreaves Hall during the OBW (Old Boys Weekend) 2010.

1. A non-refundable 50 ringgit registration fee payable to Mcoba and paid at Mcoba Secretariat [CIMB Current Ac/No. 1414 00032 26058] shall be levied for each registration.The registration will close on Friday 19th of February 2010. The WofB OBW Organizers will hold an elimination round in the middle of March assuming we had exceeded the number of 10 bands expected to perform during OBW. Therefore, it goes without saying that you must register immediately to: exec.sec@mcoba.org and with copy to: zindahari@mcoba.org

2.Each band is required to perform 3 types of songs and they are as follows:-

* An instrumental number, either Widuri or Summertime. You are ALLOWED to showcase your innovation and creativity in performing this number.
* A solo performance - backed by the band of course
* A group performance - members of the band are expected to perform either as second and/or backing vocals.
* Each group is given a 20 Minutes slot. Hence, the 3 songs must be within the 20 minutes slot

3. What constitute a band? A band, in WofB context could mean Kumpulan Gitar Rancak (Kugiran); Acoustic performances and traditional music such as keronchong or joget.

Welcome to MCOBA Annual Dinner 2009!

This year MCOBA turns 80.

Eighty years ago, on Saturday 16 March 1929, some 150 Old Boys travelled to the royal town of Kuala Kangsar and gathered at the College for Hari Besar, the Big Day. This was the beginning of our tradition of Old Boys’ Weekend, a weekend of fun and frolic when men relive their boyhood at the College.

At this very first Old Boys’ Weekend, the Old Boys, beside High Tea and a football match, discussed and agreed to the formation of an Old Boys’ Association. Y.M. Raja Musa bin Raja Haji Bot of Selangor was elected the first President. This admirable gentleman was said to be the first Malay to read law in England in 1924 and the first non-British to become the Registrar of the Supreme Court in 1937.
