flash back - leehom

02 May 2009
04 of us went to 01 concert
together with other 20,000 people
for plenty of reasons
for 01 man
we arrived quite early
the only thing that we can do were to take picture
s

10 years back
people take bus or drive to watch concert
parents might drop you off at the venue, then might pick you up after the concert
younger audiences might not afford to watch it
some parents will not pay for their kids
parents will not watch with the kids just to accompany them
we hardly see youngsters below 12 watching concert
if your parents intended to join you, your answer would be NOWAY

present
people take public transports to watch concert, or drive
parents drop you off at the venue and WAIT for you till the concert ends
younger audiences might afford to watch it
most of the parents will pay for their kids
parents will buy tickets PURPOSELY to watch together with the kids
we saw infants at the venue
parents HAVE TO go with kids due to the social safety problem today

and we see Ah Mah with her grandsons
sometimes it's good to have family gathering during concerts
and together with thousands of people
Ah Mah Ah Gong need to squeeze themselves together with the younger generations
just to see someone they might not even know
they have the stamina
for the sake of their grandchildren
funfair
look at the neon
how attractive
10 years back
i think the only moving machines
were Ferris wheel and Marry-go-round
today we have those adventurous exciting rides
which we only can play in themepark previously
we curi curi snap photo
million thanks to Heng Mun
our seats were great! ^^
saw my ex-colleagues there too =)
happy happy

i love the stage presentation
and also the theme
i think is the best among the concerts that i have watched

we see very cartoonised animations
featuring leehom the Music Man
the unforgettable things/parts were:
  • 巴哈姆 the tailor made guitar from Ireland (the artist was at the concert too!)
  • DC Comic & Marvel superheroes on-screen presentation with the synchronization of their respective music scores (then final one was Music-Man haha)
  • the concert's theme (very well presented!!)
  • when he sings "如果你听见我的歌"
this was the opening
this was when he sang "落叶归根”
piano performance
his magic tricks where he disappeared in a box on the stage
then re-appeared in the middle of the field (surrounded by audiences)

wan xian, chwee ling and ai leen lost control because of this ^^
chwee ling.ai leen.wan xian
带着依依不舍的心情。。。
frankly speaking
how many 10 years one would have with friends?
10 years ago
when i was in F3 and they're in F5 (ai leen, chwee & another 2)
we went to watch Leehom's collaboration with KLSO
we booked the tickets
then we asked ai leen's mum to pick it up for us
cause we need to go to school
so her mum went to J.W.Marriott hotel to collect the tics
wah
auntie not only see him near near
she shook hand with him summore!!
our OS: zou jee we ponteng and go collect tickets la

what i remember were:
- we sat very far from the stage, summore need to twist our head to left then only can watch
- 5 of us went PWTC with kancil
- we used retro cameras to take pictures, the outcome need not mention
the clearest one was our own group photo
- he sang julia (with violin), 不可能错过你, when u wish upon a star, 如果你听见我的歌
and etc.
- my fav were all of the songs *shy*
- the lights on stage were purple purple blue blue
- the way he held his microphone were special
- his sport shoe... a skeleton feet on the base, can spot the shoe from his
不可能错过你 album
- mr. Eric Lee was the conductor and KLSO was awesome
- he sang 打开爱 written by Jay Chou. I still dunno Jay Chou in 1999
- he loves to shake his butt ^^
... cant recall anymore right now
click here to watch some clips from this particular concert in 1999.
yesterday
he mentioned about his concert with KLSO
me and ai leen went like "errrrr...ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!"
so happy =D
i think i love his old songs more =)
we were kind of disappointed cause he didnt sing 情敌贝多芬,julia,梦想被冷冻...
the violin solo of "when you wish upon a star" was very tempting

too many thoughts to be jotted down
very lazy to continue
1999 vs 2009
i love both
^^

Fuu,

Apart from current Big City, Small Love;

I only know:
- grandfather's turn, self's turn
- can't miss you out
- julia
- trust
- tears and palm
- love-enemy Beethoven

So if can, send me back to 1999.

I was on youtube, and the artist i was searching was...

Mr. Ye Liang Chun with his
"I always hear you say"

still looking for
"Can you please don't turn old?"

And yesterday, we went to a 'private Karaoke' and I selected the songs like
"the one who loved me and the one i loved"
"childish king"
"Show-off" by Kit Chan

Please help me!!!

* Luckily i know what is POKERFACE!
