Unforgettable concerts

In no particular order, these are the best concerts i have had the privilege to go to:-

1. Sam Hui



The only Chinese concert - and the biggest! I think the build up was better than the concert itself. We were all so hyped up for it, listening to his songs over and over again, trying to learn the lyrics by heart so that we can sing along!

You can read about it here.

2. Sting



My first pop concert that i went alone! i was supposed to go with Mikes but unfortunately, he met with an accident on the way there so i ended up watching it alone. Sting was good. Such a veteran! You can read about it here.

3. Debbie Gibson



My first ever pop concert! What an unforgettable experience! Such a performer! And it was almost like a variety show! With dances and all. The musicians were brilliant too. We left the concert half deaf and i had a ringing in me ears for days after that! Well, worth it! :-)

4. SMV



3 legendary basses on stage. A wonderful venue - good view, excellent sound!

To understand how i enjoyed this, lemme tell you that me mates and i love the bass. Whenever we go for a concert one of the main highlights is the bass solo - that is usually a few minutes in one entire concert.

But here, the entire concert was like a bass solo!!!! they took turns, they played with each other, the jammed like crazy!

5. Jewel



This has to be the best concert ever! But then again, it's Jewel!

It started off slow, tho. We were all made to sit down and there were some stern looking security guards standing around. Even Jewel was perplexed at the seemingly restrained response from us.

Finally, she called those who were seated in the back rows to come up to the front, right in front of the stage. We din need to be told twice. We were all on our feet and crowding next to the stage, dancing and singing, partying! Excellent!

And she really connected with us. It was so fun and it felt warm. Seh wasn't up there performing - she was just having a good time with us!
