William Scorpion Book launch concert.

For those who frequent clubs like Dragonfly/Shanghai Dolly will be familiar with this name.

He is well known in the local cantopop & mandopop scene.
He recently launched his biography-travelogue 

SANUK JING JING NA 

and had a book launch performance party at Zouk.



So, I was there!! 
I really do love attending lives, gigs and concerts.
The ambience there is so much different from listening to discs and songs at home.

The crowd and artiste interactions is something you can't get elsewhere, and you can really feel the emotions going on with both the crowd and singer.
I always go high enjoying music scenes like these.







Other than William Scorpion, do not forget the band that make all the music happened.







His daughter was there that day and performed together with him.
Also a musician, she is.







He sang lots of songs and some of them are the few famous ones.
Like one that I really like a lot, 

海阔天空 orginally by Beyond.




















More photos can be found at Queen Inc Band facebook page



and right now, let me enjoy my songs with the JBL speakers since I can't be at any concerts now, 
plus it's a nice way to coze at home with the bad haze going on outside.

Sundown Festival 2012 : Saga and his sexiness

Yes, I just went for Sundown Festival 2012 yesterday!
It was a great event for me, a lot of stuffs happened and I made lots of greats friends.

The experience was just so damn wonderful, being able to see Alice Nine in real is like dream come true.
It's their 8 years since debut and I have been liking them since 15 plus 16 years old, which make it 6 years and on going.

I am still trying to sort out photos but here's a GIF that I can't stop watching.
I cropped it off from one of the video I shot and I was just plain lucky to have this taken. 


Please credit if used, thank you very much.

JRock Evolution 2012

A few weeks ago, thanks to Noelle (http://www.noellemikazuki.com/), I attended JRock Evolution 2012 - Singapore over at Scape!

credits to http://www.jlive.asia/jrockevolution/singapore.html


If you do not know, I was into JRock when I was younger, during secondary school days.
My favorite band all along was Alice Nine!!!!
I am still listening to them!

Sadly (for me), Alice Nine wasn't coming to Singapore for JRock Evolution 2012, but going for the one in Indonesia instead ><

The Artistes lined up for Singapore was
MUCC & UniTE

To be honest, if you ask me about them I do not know how to answer.
I heard of MUCC before, but when it gets to songs wise and members, I really do not know a thing.
I kinda just went to this concert not knowing anything of the performers. 
(okay, I know, I felt bad alright)

UniTE is new, only formed last year.
BUT, their style is the type that I will totally like if I am still chasing JRock.
The vocalist's real cute :x

MUCC are already in the scene for real long.
They are big shots in this circle, plus they did opening for even bigger shots before too.
eg. GUNS N' ROSE.
Their vocalist, Tatsuro is so funny and amusing.
I am really impressed in how they kept on changing guitars after guitars just for the different sound effect it gives for different songs.
Plus, they also had sounds effects added to their song which makes everything even cooler. 



Even though I know nothing, I still did enjoyed the concert.
Attending performance live always had this feeling I don't know how to explain.
Even better when the artistes do interacts with the audience, which most JRock bands/singers does.
The ambience and crowd makes everything so wonderful.

Plus, the songs are real nice too!
It's enjoyable even though I couldn't understand what they are singing,
but being at at live concert, like I said. 
IT'S AMAZING.
Especially during MUCC sector, the crowd went real crazy!

I did meet a few friends there too.
Fans of JRock and of the bands. 
Was kind of expected to see familiar faces there anyway :)


With Noelle, who brought me along with her. 

with Shinn jie

and Yuchi

Photos weren't allowed to be taken during concert so I got none to post up.
However, VIPS tickets holder get to have a photo taking session of the 2 bands!

Noelle and I didn't know about it and almost left the place already!








After the phototaking session was a handshake session.
Japanese are well known for being sincere. 
All of their handshakes were super firm.
UniTE's vocalist Yui, had this super wide smile on his face, with two hands he grabbed my hand super firmly and said thank you!
You can really feel the warmth and sincerity from all of them.
MUCC was much cooler, but till with sincerity.
The concert ended off with Tatsuro giving off MUCC's poster.
I am keeping it for Yuchi instead, better to give a fan than keeping it for my own. :)

Love going to concerts!!!

On a side note,
ALICE NINE IS COMING!!! 
For Sundown Festival this year!
I would so love to go, but I am so damn broke.
They will be the last idol on my list that I would love to see badly.
Actually, it will complete my list!!!
>< praying hard for media pass for bloggers, or I got enough money, or the ticket will just appear right infront of my face.
I WOULD LOVE TO GO REAL BADLY!

Big Bang Samsung Alive Tour 2012 - Singapore


(imagine me shouting this)
I WENT FOR BIG BANG ALIVE TOUR OH MY GOSHHHHHHH!!!!

photo credits to Allkpop.com

WARNING! This post is full of me being a fan girl, non stop giggling (thanks god you can't hear that), my endless smiling (unable to see other than my emotioncs :) ) and endless photos (I wish).



First of all, I want to thanks Shannon http://mrstyleking.blogspot.sg/ for the Twitter contest which I won!!
It's all thanks to him that I managed to attend Big Bang's concert!!!!
HOORAY!!!
I am still "overly" happy till now, and my happiness and highness have not yet end.
I am still very much crazy over the fact that I got to attend the concert and see them in real life!!
This is like a dream come true!!! (yeah, I know I got lots of dreams)

Ever since I started chasing/liking K-Pop in Secondary School, my choice of music change.
There were a few groups that I liked, still like, and I just can't stop listening to their music.
The first few groups that caught my attention was DBSK and Super Junior, and I very much self-claimed myself as a biggest fan.
That was before I got to know about Big Bang.
Then, I was very much attracted to their rapper, T.O.P with his unique voice and his charming eyes.
I got glued to them and BIG BANG became my favorite Korea boy-group.
Lots of friends do know that I am crazy over T.O.P (including the boyfriend) and I always wanted to see in real life!!!
Been going for fan meets and autograph session, for eg. Super Junior and SHINee.
It was an opportunity that I couldn't miss if I can afford to make it.
To me, I do not need to chase them like crazy, just being able to see them once will be good enough for me.
I never had a chance to meet Big Bang till now.

I blame myself, for not able to save up money, thus not being able to buy the tickets to the concert.
Missed a few times before this too, like the F1 concert for example.

I was real lucky this time to join Shannon's twitter contest and get to go to the concert!!
It's freaking BIG BANG.

Enough of my typing. It's gonna be endless fangirling giggling over BIG BANG, okay, especially T.O.P
(on a side note, OUCH, he injured his hand while filming, and then again I respect him to went ahead and come Singapore for the concert despite of the fact)

I am real grateful and thankful to Shannon, and I can't stop saying that.
Perhaps, The Secret worked and make me lucky recently.
No no no, shall not doubt but YES! THE SECRET WORKED!!!

So, I joined the twitter contest and WON!! That you know.
Damien aka Uncle Teh Peng won too and we were so high about it.
Managed to contact the other winner, Debra and the three of us decided to meet and go to the concert together.
It's real great to go concerts with friends and enjoy going high together. The feeling is real different.

Doubt anyone wanna read what I'm typing but to look at all the photos instead!!!!!!

OH-KAY! The concert!

I ended work early that day so I could find Shannon and pick up the tickets.
( detoured a little since Kith's was real close, this I went by and get a drink before heading to the stadium)

Initially we wanted to get there real early so we can queue and be infront!
Samsung distracted us instead!!!!!!!

There was a Samsung booth where you can queue up to write notes and try on their products.
Galaxy Note, SIII, even their tabs.
Even better, by writing the notes an listening to the staffs introduce and explain we get to have this coupon that we can claim and do stuffs.



Like....

Taking a photo with the photo wall!




Getting bangles and lanyards!
The bangles can be light up, just nice for the concert!!!


There are even free tattoos with the big bang concert logo and hair extension!

the two Samsung people who gave us the tattoos.
The girl is so pretty!
Both of them are koreans by the way. 

I would like to state something too!
You know how in concerts some fans were sell their hand made merchandise?
Better check whether it's legal or whether the merchandise are licensed?
I know fans might not mind while buying but the companies will!

Apparently there's a few girls selling their handmade crown-headband and got into trouble with the crew.
Was queuing up for the hair extension nearby and kinda witness the entire incident.
Poor girl was almost in tears while trying to explain herself.
They wanted to call the police or something and took away all her items!
In conclusion, it's really not safe and right to sell handmade merchandise when there are the original ones.



[Sensor the photos for privacy purpose!]
The entire thing seems so scary!

We spotted Patricia Mok and Ann Kok there too, and took a photo with Ann Kok before running off.


Still lol-ing over the incident how she "volunteers to act in their MV" and GF asked her to audition instead. OUCH.
And the endless bashing how she calls them OPPA, when she is ahem *39 years old*
You know how OPPA is for girls calling guys OLDER than him?
MEHS. I was lol-ing throughout reading those news.
She don't really look like her age too, she got a real small face.

Oh, the one thing that shocked me was that she printed her OWN FACE on the A1? poster and brought it to the concert?
*piak forehead*
(disclaimer. I got nothing against her though)



A group photo of us :)
We met this other girl there who was alone so we kinda just asked her to join us :D

By the time we finish we all the Samsung stuffs, it's almost 6.30pm and the concert starts at 7pm!
I rushed and went to queue to get my merchandise!!!

Even though we didn't queue to get all the way in front, we aren't much far away from the stage too.

It was crazy! I was damn high!
Jumping and shouting through the entire concert!
It was amazing! I had so damn much fun!!!!!
It's even better when you go with friends!!!!!!

Alright, photos time!!!
We are kinda bias?
I like T.O.P while Debra like GDragon and all agree that TaeYang is good looking too, so we got more shots of the three of them :x
It's not like we don't like the other two just that we got our favorite!

Photos are credited to Debra! (other than those with my link)
Remember to check out her blog too!
















We took some photos after that with the wall again.
It was crazy trying to take photo of each individual one when there are so many others wanting to do the same thing too.

(ps. will update this post again after I got the photos!)


Wait! Let me share what I got from the concert!
I spend like $150 on this!!!
