1st time performing with a Big Band

Thx to a colleague Anne, I had my very 1st experience of performing with a Big Band...
The band was made up of Swedishs and Russians...It was my honour to perform with them.

Anne was a very old friend of the Swedish Conductor of the band, Mr Jangtun... ( who looked very much like our KFC Colonel...tsk tsk)

Sang the song 《童话》for somebody in mind...hope she likes it. -_-"

Wedding gig @ Marriott for Alywin & Charmaine

I was invited to perform by the bride Charmaine thru her mom who's a "colleague" of mine... It's always a great honour and pleasure to perform at wedding banquets...

It was a great collaboration with Peter Huang, a veteran performer in the Chinese music scene... It was my honour to perform with him...especially when he started doing his amazing beatbox...

He started out performing at Music Dreamer (爱琴海) at the same time when I started out performing at The Ark (木船).
We didn't really practice the songs together before last nite's gig, but all went well...

The many years of training we had at the Chinese music cafes, provided us the ability to adapt and perform with any musician at any time...

And thanx to Peter for providing the monitor speaker and his own mixer board on stage for the gig( something most hotel ballrooms would not be able to provide ) , thus we were able to hear ourselves well on stage...

Check out some videos taken last nite...

Our 1st song was the "national anthemn" in 民歌餐厅s.











I love performing for weddings...
Anyone needs a wedding singer?
My charges are very affordable! lol.

Jay Chou The Era 2010 World Tour

I watched the 1st show on last friday...
I still prefer the last show in 2007 actually...lol
But this one is still fantastic nonetheless... cos I watched with someone special...


I realised the acoustic guitar finger plucking solo in the his new song《免费教学录影带》was really played by himself, or at least, he really know how to do it... Amazing...











As usual, Jay will make sure his artistes get some limelight...The Drifters here...











and Cindy Yen...












A clever move by Jay!! This is the 1st time I see such a big lyrics board at the back... how to forget lyrics with it???

Say bye bye to the conventional Grand Piano... Now we have weird looking "grand pianos" in all shape and sizes... Just slot in a good 88keys digital piano and there u go....











Oh yes...did I mention Jay has fantasy about flight attendants? Jay performing《嘻哈空姐》with the sexy "flight attendants"...












The 3D screen...actually got 3D meh?



































Last but not least... a video!!! =P



Come back soon Jay... looking forward to your 11th album...

张惠妹《人质》

Naang Fa Kon Derm ( My Angel )

The 2nd Thai song I learnt...A song by Thai Pop/Rock Band Clash...Pardon my Thai... I'm a Chinese... =P

The Ark Cafe Movie Theme Song Concert

And YES... We finally get to gig after a long break, as our drummer Liang just celebrated his 1st Fathers' Day today... His daughter Roxette Tan was finally born on 1st June 2010!

It was a nite of fun and lame jokes from yours truly... 10 rock songs in a row isn't something easy, hoped I pulled it off!
I was on 3 different instruments that nite as well...
Been a long time since I performed on the guitar as well as my beloved (digital) piano...

Some highlights of last nite's gig...


My fave song from Jay Chou's new album...


We performed a new song written by me for the band that nite as well...It's also the 1st time we performed this particular song inspired by a special someone...some glitches here and there...I forgot to bring the lyrics, got to depend on my phone! But the screen is too small, thus sang a few words wrongly. ( Of cos, I wrote the lyrics, I could memorise most of the lyrics...)
Hope the next time it will be much better!



We invited Seto, keyboardist of LGF band to play the piano for us!!!
Thx bro! =)


One of my fave song from Sky Wu...


My fave song of the nite... Mayday's 《温柔》还你自由版。
It's one of the songs that I always perform when I 1st joined The Ark Cafe 10 years ago as a vocalist... Time flies... but I'm still young... =P

Looking forward to the next gig... =)

Aaron Kwok De Show Reel World Tour Encore 2010

This is a late entry! Aaron came to Singapore again with his rotating stage for an Encore concert just last month... I went to watch with my primary school friend who missed his concert last year... She's a die hard fan of Aaron as well!

I was glad that the song list was a bit different... more than 70% of the songs were his Mandarin songs... There was even a medley of his popular mandarin songs from his 1st 10 yrs of stardom...( Aaron's been in showbiz for 20 yrs already btw...)

But he decided to speak more cantonese instead this time round... I still prefer him speaking in Mandarin... it's more entertaining for me... whahaha!~
