if u noticed the time tat tis blog was written, u may wonder y i'm still awake.. well, in the nn, i took a nap of 3-4 hrs. so still quite awake.
but some unfortunate stuff happened. a newly-made frn said he's holding a bday celebration at a pub at 1130pm, and said he made reservation. so i decided to attend, since i was wide awake. at 9+, i asked again, and he confirmed the pub is still on. so, 11pm, i made my way there. at 1140, i decided to confirm my presence. he din reply. i reached the place at 1205am. i sms him again. still no reply. i even went inside the pub to ask if any1 made reservation under the name i knew him as. no reservation.
den i sms him my findings, and said i'll be leaving in 10 mins time. den.. some nice stuff happened, which will be mentioned abt my grumbling here, n 20 mins passed. no reply. so i went str8 home.. if it was not for the nice stuff, it's really a wasted trip.
nice stuff: as i stood outside the pub, and staring into blank. a trio of guys came over to ask mi which pubs here offer dancing. 1 was a nice looking boy. it was very sudden. i dunno the programs the pubs there offer tonite, so i said i dunno. den i found them, loitering around the area, clueless abt next step. they oso asked a few other passers-by, but i tink no result. but i duno is whether they dunno how to ask properly, or the passers-by dunno wat they asking, or simply nt frnly enuff to ans.
oh ya, from their way of speaking eng, can know they r chinese speakers.
den they still loitering there, dunno wat to do. den, at tis time, i trying hard to rmb, wat places got dancing, where my buddy n mi went during his holiday here. den i rmb its Play, Taboo, and tantric. so, i went up to them.. wah, they abt to cross the road liao siaz!! as i walked to them, tat boy turned back n saw mi. i waved at him. he look in amazement. den i waved again, he then knw i'm waving at him.
i den tok to them wat the places are. i mentioned 2 places, and den exclaimed tat i specially went over to them cos the boy is nice looking. haaah.. at tat pt, the boy offered a handshake, but i was busy telling them the places to visit, n din do anything.
they den took out a paper n pen, and the boy wrote down the info.
hey, visitors n frns, lemme knw if my understanding is correct:
1) tantric, for asians who want to pick up caucasians, a place for drinking.
2) play, for teens.. aged 16-22, for dancing.
3) taboo, for youngsters, but above 22, for dancing.
4) mox, for working class, for drinking.
after writing, i asked for a handshake, den he volunteered to exchange msn whahahha..
he's in singlet.. his armpit is bushy :P i wonder if, i'm too shy... shld i have asked for a hug instead? he from taiwan, and going back on sunday nn. if nt, i'll tell them abt fabulous events siazz. soon after, they r really gone from sight hahaha..
=============
umm the lady who commented abt the concert, said i din mention anything good abt it. ehh... i tink i shld write something den...
the whole concert really ROCKED with amei!!!!!!!!!!!
i was wif her die-hard fans. once she showed herself, we all jus stood up siazz.. n almost never sat down! her fast songs had everyone wave their neonstix for her, and her ballads had ppl singing along wif her too... funny thing is, tis time, lyrics were shown on tv. it's for fans, or for her to see?! except for guest performers (drumming, big guitar.. or cello), there's not a moment of dullness. everyone was simmply awed by either her power vocals, or emo cords...
screams were abundant. the more emo part came when she sang a rip-off (ren zhen) from her duet wif zhangyusheng. the crowd was not tat familiar wif rip-off ver. but once she switched to the original duet (ai wo de ren, shang wo zui shen), all sang along.
the funny part came when she sang (zhan zai gao gang shang), an aboriginal type of energetic and high power song. cos her male dancers were dressed in only swimwear. i really wonder why siazz..
the hot part was, her male dancers were dressed in professional attired, like doc, biz-man, etc, n they stripped to oni undershirts. den amei appeared, lying seductively on the sofa and flirted wif them.
when the last song finished, she exited. as usual, it's the encore segment. everyone... or our side oni? ie the fans' side.. we stamped the platform heavily, "demanding" her to come out.. at tis point, i think about a handful of crowd starting to leave.. but if they did, they missed out the most valuable part of the performance for sure!!
as we stamped the platform, and shouted for her, the screen asked "do u stil wan some more?" the screaming got louder. den the nex qn "show more energy..." we simply got more excited. the 3rd one "show mi more..." we again screamed n cheered like hell, making it the highest peak for the concert.
n she finalyl re-appeared.. everyone started to go mad.. hahha... the lights were den on, n she started off wif her lovable, but non-hit (ie, it was not promoted as a hit song, but still became 1 of the favourites) slow songs. den she got high, and got everyone, read: EVERYONE SINGLE ONE, to stand up and groove to her songs.
i was all along oni standing n waving to the rhythm. but i felt i need more space, so i stood beside the seats, and jumped n put both hands into the air and cheered for her... it was DARN, superb'ly, unimaginably, super duper wuper, historically high moment. everyone simply enjoyed it!!!
it was defintely the concert of the year. i dun tink anyone else, from any generation, could have done it better... she's the STAR, the ultimate performer for teh stage.
