Mayday Concert 2009 – Day 2

Kailing — Sun, 30 Aug 2009 10:23:35 +0000

I personally feel that Day 2 of Mayday’s 《DNA 创造》concert is much better than Day 1’s. I was closer to the stage and best was, I was only 10cm close to 阿信、怪兽 and 石头 when they walked on the stage extension during the concert!

Jackie was thrilled when 阿信 held his hands. Our Mr Jackie Tan was never a Mayday fan until he went to Mayday’s 《离开地球表面》 concert with me 2 years ago. Unfortunately, we missed 《回到地球表面》last year as it clashed with our Hong Kong Trip.

The stadium was 100% occupied this round and everyone was so high! Most of us stood throughout the concert. I shall let the pictures and videos speak for themselves.

阿信 played drummer a few times during the concert. For viewing on fb, please refer to link 1 and link 2.

Mayday Concert 2009 – Day 1

Kailing — Sat, 29 Aug 2009 04:45:21 +0000

I have actually bought Mayday concert tickets in January this year. When I went to their 《后青春期的诗》mini outdoor concert last year, the recording company announced that Mayday will be holding their concert on 29th August 2009 and pre-sale of tickets will be held in January. At that time, no concert theme nor seats allocation was announced; yet the tickets were almost sold out.

The organizers then decided to add one more show on 28th August 2008 and as it happens to be Mayday’s 10th Anniversary of their 1st concert, the concert last night ended at 12.10am.

As I have already bought the $178 tickets for the 29th’s show, I bought the $118 tickets for the 28th’s show, and I am glad I did so as they sang a few songs which they have not sung for a long time during the last 30 minutes of the concert like 《志明与春娇》- 木吉他版, 《I Love You无望》and 《憨人》.

As I was seated quite far from the stage last night, I did not manage to take very good pictures but I think this video should be significant enough for last night’s show. How many times do we see 阿信 and 冠佑 switching roles?

Lee Guitars All Stars Concert….

Kailing — Sun, 30 Nov 2008 18:52:02 +0000

I went to the Lee Guitars All Stars Concert at Singapore Indoor Stadium yesterday. I would say this is one unique concert as the name suggests, the bulk of the performance involved guitars. Even the stage is a big big guitar!!!

The concert started with 李宗盛 singing the theme song for the concert followed by a few songs he has written, then with Emil Chou (周华健）who managed to make the uncle sitting beside me to sing and clap along with him.

The guy in shades in 张震岳. The trio were singing 《我是一只小小鸟》.

The concert continued with Tanya Chua & 陈绮贞 and a guitar pro playing 《离开地球表面》 solely on his guitar. Many were amazed by him.

The whole concert ended with 五月天’s performance with 李宗盛 rounding up. I found it a pity that 阿信 did not sing 《私奔到月球》with 陈绮贞 as I felt that would make a very good guitar duet and this is one of the few times they get to perform together on the same stage.
