The Story Begins...

Crazy!
So many live shows, so little money.
Quoted from the latest issue of KLue magazine.

It's true. Last year wasn't as crazy as this.
The first quarter for 2007 was Akon, Muse & Good Charlotte.

This year's first quarter is Switchfoot, Explosions in the Sky, Backstreet Boys, Incubus, John Legend, The Roots and don't forget... the diva is coming to Malaysia.

She sang for the soundtrack of the Oscar's best film, Titanic.
She was one of the performer for VH1 Diva's Live.
None other than Celine Dion.


The idol of Siti Nurhaliza; Celine Dion will be doing a concert here this 8th April 2008 at Stadium Merdeka.

This is big!
Why?
This concert has been confirmed since last year.
Even the Malaysia date is inside the Wikipedia!

Funny, ey?

Guess how much is the ticket price...
No.. this is not Muse where you can get as low as RM30 for the top tier after discount.
What? Can't go above Whitney's RM260?
Free show? You think this is M2M doing album promo?

Here are the list of ticket prices...
Take a deep breath, you ballad worshipers!

1. RM988 (Numbered seating)
2. RM688 (Numbered seating)
3. RM488 (Numbered seating)
4. RM288 (Free seating)
5. RM138 (Free seating)

the prices are inclusive of RM3 of processing fee.

These prices are taken from a forum. Please wait for the official black & white from the organizer (Galaxy) cuz it's the full information is not out yet.

Which one would you rather pay?
A grand for F1 ticket with RM50 parking... or almost a grand for Celine Dion?

I'll choose Tiesto over F1 & Celine Dion! hahahaha!

The Story Begins...

This week would be my 4th week of entertainment.

My Chemical Romance concert at Stadium Merdeka.

I went there with Juli & Joanne from Subang.
We gerak from home at 6.15pm.
We had a GREAT traffic jam.
We hitted a Vios, thank god that person is a really nice guy. He didn't mad at us.
We reached there at 8pm.
The ticket for the blue zone (RM163) was sold out. DAMN!
We got the green zone (RM103) ticket for only RM73.
It was drizzling.
Thanks to the organizer for giving out free raincoat to everyone.

The concert was good.
Gerard's voice is not that bad for a live concert.

Muse did better compared to MCR but it's still great to have MCR here in Malaysia.
We really did enjoy the concert!

The crowd.... MOSTLY KIDS!
It's like the kids brought their parents to the concert... not the parents brought their kids.

The most memorable song of the night was Helena, Cancer, Mama, Teenagers and Famous Last Words. They did something different for the Helena's introduction. I didn't expect that they were going to perform Mama because of the word "Mama, we're all going to hell" but of course, Malaysians are getting more open minded. :)
Teenagers was really really fun moment. Famous Last Words as their last song. IT WAS THE BOMB!

Muse played 19 songs.
My Chemical Romance did 17 songs.

Songs that I expected but didn't play that night:

1. It's Not a Fashion Statement, It's a Deathwish (from Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge)
2. Thank You For the Venom (from Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge)
3. Disenchanted (from the Black Parade)
4. The Ghost of You (from Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge)

Here is the set list for the concert:

1. This Is How I Disappear
2. Dead!
3. I'm Not Okay (I Promise)
4. Give 'Em Hell Kid
5. The Sharpest Lives
6. Mama (the BEST!)
7. Cemetery Drive
8. Welcome to the Black Parade (the BEST!)
9. I Don't Love You
10. House of Wolves
11. You Know What They Did To Guys Like Us in Prison
12. Helena (the BEST!)
13. Teenagers (the BEST!)
14. Sleep
15. Cancer (the BEST!)
16. Desert Song
17. Famous Last Words (the BEST!)

My Chemical Romance is the closing concert for me as I couldn't go for Dewa 19's concert because of family vacation. :(

Here's the photo of us at the event.

The Story Begins...

The clock ticked at 4pm yesterday.
I was just finish watching Hitman with my friends in Mid Valley and then I received an SMS from Nisa, "Adli, Nisa ada extra ticket pergi Live & Loud. Nak tak?"
So, I agreed to follow her...

WOHOOOOOOOO!!!

Seriously,
I was cranky because I really wanted to see K-Ci & Jojo.
"All My Life" was like my best hit when it was 1998.
The lyrics is still fresh in my mind up to now.


We (me, Nisa & Zack) entered Stadium Negara at 9pm. Taufik Batisah was performing that time. Our ticket was the Season Pass (a pass that can enter 2 nights of concert) and we have to sit at the most cheapest seat in the stadium. (DARN!!!)


During Lil G's performance, we were allowed to enter the RM192's seating but later on we went to the toilet. We realized that there were no one guarding the expensive seatings and the standing arena. So, we sneaked in to the standing arena and we survived! Yay!

Mint Condition was awesome. They know how to make the crowd SCREAMMMM!


By 12am, K-Ci & Jojo came on stage!
It was fabulous!
I love their performance.
10 years ago, I could only watch them on Billboard in TV3 but now, I can see them right in front of my eyes!

K-Ci was too cranky that night.
He took off his clothes one by one.
He ripped off his undershirt (a singlet) and threw it to the crowd.
He did a booty thingy to 10 girls.
It was so funny.
Alrite, we were quite disturbed when he played with his crotch while performing.
Not only that, he even did the "stroking" action, in and out.

K-Ci and Jojo sang Crazy, Tell Me It's Real & All My Life.
Well, I'm not really an R&B fan. So I only know those 3 tracks.
Hahahaha!

The concert was my first ever R&B concert in my life!
I didn't go for the Alicia Keys and Boyz II Men's concert.
So this is my first experience.
In fact, we were dancing through those soulful R&B songs.
Hey, they are not those pop R&B-ish like Beyonce, Kelly Rowland and Akon.
hahhhaha.

The show finished at 2am.
I got home at 3.30am

Thanks to Nisa once again for the ticket :)

Here are the photos of the concert.

Nisa and Zack

Yeeee-HAWWW!

Stockly of Mint Condition.

Waiting for K-Ci and Jojo! :P
