ARMY OF FRIENDS (A.O.F.) is a community of bands formed on the 15th of May, 2009, which is also the date of the first meeting of A.O.F.. Besides being a community, the A.O.F. also organise events such as gigs and others. The main founder of this community are FOUR (4) bands from North Borneo, MY, which are:
This community was planned since last year (2008) but nobody wanted to take things seriously. Not until on the month of May of the year 2009, when few members of each band gathered together as usual on a rainy day and poped up the word "ARMY OF FRIENDS" and some suggestion on organising events. A.O.F. was founded by Junior and Nick.
Establishment
The A.O.F. community was created with the mission on taking local music futher in a different pathway; being a stepping stone for new bands to go far and currently active bands go even futher.
Besides that, the A.O.F. community based here in Kinabalu City would like to help the local bands, clothing labels and other known local organizers to expand their music, t-shirts, or any event information etc. not only focusing in Borneo, Malaysia, but also all over the world.
In that way, the vision of making new friends and family around the globe is fulfilled; indirectly spreading an army of friends.
Last Words
Teamwork is an important value that the community practises to reach every goal we set.
