28-May-2010: Khalil’s Timeless Concert

This is my second time enjoying a live concert at Arena of Stars and it had been a very different experience altogether.

Khalil Fong (方大同) is a great entertainer; not only did he performed CD-quality tracks on stage, but his band (including himself) played really well that night. I only got to know during the introductory message from Khalil (proves that I did not do any homework) that it would be a retro themed concert. Hence, 70 percent of the songs he picked were classics with songs ranging from Michael Jackson, Stevie Wonder to John Meyer.

Comments on the concert?
My brother (his first time watching a concert) said, I know he can do better than this.
I, for one, enjoyed the band the most! Khalil brought with him a few guys who plays for Eason Chan’s concerts too. I could only recognize two of them – Jun Kung Shek Leung (恭碩良), a well-known drummer and Edward Chan, the band leader, who is also a well-known composer, arranger and producer.

05-Jun-2010: Mayday’s DNA Concert

I was never a fan of Mayday. I do not know how to appreciate their loud banging music but their performance that night really blew me away. One could see how much effort the concert director/organiser (and Mayday of course) have made. Sparks, an old yellow taxi, a full-size Bumblebee and a huge white globe were brought on stage during the show.

Special appearance by Ding Dang (丁当) brought my interest back to the concert. Having loved her song, I Love Him (我爱他), her performance that night proved that she is worth the respect :-) She performed three songs that night, one was a duet with Mayday’s lead singer, 我爱他 and 我是一只小小鸟.
