So, over the weekend I went to Eason's concert. (I finally went to eat A&W, but that is another post) He can sing like no one else I've heard before. And he can sing almost any type and genre of songs. Well, this is the first time I was actually taking photos during concerts, save for the Rain concert which I was only there as my sister's photographer and Shinhwa's concert which I might never have a chance to go to again. I don't even take photos during Mayday's concerts.
From the concerts that I had been to, I found out that there are a few catagories that can be used to describe the different concerts. Rain's concert was more on the asesthetic value as the stage setup was amazing. Mayday's concerts are fun to go to because you get to take part in their craziness and be involved in their songs. Concerts like Sodagreen's, Eason's and Cheer Chen's belong to the enjoyable group. Those are concerts where we go there to enjoy and listen to their fantastic talent.
I want to go to at least one concert every month.
p/s: forgive the sometimes blurry photos. it MUST be the camera, not the photographer's problem.
The stage when its all bright.
He appeared under all that garb and sang and no one could see him.
Then it suddenly looked like a Christmas tree, all bright and lit up. With flashing lights too.
Finally looking normal.
And he danced! So cute.
For the next few photos, somehow his expressions are...left to be desired. Haha.
Maybe he should learn to still look pretty/good while prancing around the stage.
I find this extremely amusing as many of his crew came out to wipe sweat away for him. He looks like a little boy who can't even clean himself properly. Hah.
One of his quirky images but awful hair, awful sunglasses.
Looks like phantom of the opera.
Alright, he is somewhere in the middle but I'm more interested in the lights.
Batman!
Colourful Batman?
Eyes atop his eyes.
Dance dance away.
Conclusion: The Indoor Stadium indeed has more visual impact than the Expo. And he is still very good, though age and his kid may have mellowed him and made him more emotional. Yay!
I am going crazy. There are so many concerts coming up that I really really want to go. There is the Eason Chan's one in end July and there is a Sodagreen one in early August. I think they are only 1 week apart. And there are the random ones like F.I.R and Gary Cao whose concerts I don't mind going but it's not a must. How?!?!?
To all those who are even vaguely interested in how my Cheer Chen's concert (alliteration!) last saturday went, if there are even any, I thought I should be saying something about it. It makes no sense for me to spend $150.30 (including the evil $2 sistic fee and $0.30 handling fee) on a concert and say nothing about it after that right?
Anyway, one thing to say is that she can REALLY sing. And she is kind of pretty in quite a shy way. Well, the concert lasted from 8.30-11.30pm with her saying less than 10 sentences. I have to say that her songs together with her vocals blend really well and it managed to make me feel something. I bet many people there was touched by her vocals.
And in case you guys are wondering who I went with (ya right, as in anyone bothers), I was there alone. It happened when I was surfing the Sistic website and wanted to check what are the seats available. And apparently, the seat allocated to me was first row, middle. How could I resist such an offer?! So there I was. I guess there is really not alot to say for this concert because it is not a rock concert like mayday's in which they are really good at jacking up the atmosphere. It is not a concert by something like Eason Chan who knows how to entertain us with his entics. She is extremely soft-spoken and the concentration was on singing and nothing else. And now, the next concert I am still considering is A-mei's. I am SO tempted to go but lazy to ask anyone to go with me. And concerts have to be attended with people who knows how to enjoy themselves. And by now, most probably the seats left over are quite crappy. I'll just hope for the best.
Dance dance away.
