Wing's Live in Singapore 2011 (Way Overdue)

This was last year's event after Hari Raya.

Way overdue.. I pretty much forgotten much of the details cept that it's a great concert. Right from opening act to main act. Sound system is great as well.

As per norm, we took our own "sweet" time ..

Opening act by Kristal

Here's Wings singing Taman Rashida Utama

After that we went to Lau Pa Sat for Satay and we saw the whole Wings and Kristal gang there makan satay :-)

Search XPDC Live in Singapore

Search XPDC Live in Singapore


Where  : Singapore Indoor Stadium
Date : 28th Jan 2012 (Saturday)
Time : 8pm to 11pm
Organiser : D'Touchz 

Who are they? 
Search is a rock band in Malaysia. It was founded in 1981 by Yazit (drums), Hillary Ang (guitar), Nasir (bass guitar), Zainal (guitar) and Amy (vocals). The group went through many line-up changes in its career, but the songs and music remained strong and unique among Malaysian and Singaporean fans. (Click the link for more. Thanks Wiki)


XPDC is another Malay heavy rock band featured. The only song I know is CINTA and I hate that song. Babe who wasn't exposed much to Malay songs, don't even know who they are.


I went from work. The plan was to meet babe there.
Now that the circle line to Stadium is in operation, the journey from Tai Seng to Indoor stadium took me less than 30mins and there is no need for me to change train. How convenient! 


Anyway we had Burger King for dinner. Babe bought it from BK Leisure Dome. Babe met Shaz there. Shaz called me asking where we were seated. They bought standing tickets .


We took our own sweet time to enter as we were not interested in listening to opening act. 
So we stood outside people watch.


(It's interesting as we get to watch former Minah rock and Mat rock who are all now makcik and pakcik. Some even brought their anak2 along. 


Some of the former rockers still pakai baju2 rocker dorang so the end result quite hillarious actually tengok pakcik pakai seluar ketat accompanied by the usual rockers accessories.)


We met Sharon and Yusran. Like us they also want to avoid opening act. They went in before us.


After bout 45mins waiting outside the venue we went in and Horror Horror.. Amy was up there belting out. Okie great we missed out a few mins of the songs but It's ok, I don't recognise the song anyway.


Seriously. For an old man, Amy is STILL good looking. Still stylo as usual and still energetic. The rest of the gang doesn't age as well as him. 


Here's some pics.. which was taken by my trusty DMC-TZ7. Thanks goodness for 17x Zoom.

They performed the following songs, The list below are not in order. The only correct order are the last 2.


- Fenomena
- Isabella
- Pelesit Kota
- Cakap memang murah
- Isi atau kulit
- Pawana
- Fantasia bulan Madu
- Gadis Ku  (encore)
I did not list out 2 or 3 songs as I don't find it familiar. 


Here's Search performing Fantasia bulan Madu. 

After performing the last song Gadis Ku for encore, Amy said the usual thanks etc etc and invite us to wait for the next performer which is XPDC. 


Wow !! 


That's news! Shouldn't XPDC be performing first? They are the lesser popular band right? 


We saw alot of ppl making their way to the exit. We decided to stay cos we were still hopeful that Search will perform again cos we don't think that program line up so screw up. Takkan organiser tak tahu orang just nak negok Search kan. Tak takut ke organiser kalau orang sumer balik lepas Search nyanyi? 


So we sat... listening to bad soundsystem and sometimes out of tune 2nd vocalist. (2 vocalist for XPDC. The first vocalist has a nice voice) 


First singer. I don't know his name. He has a nice rough rocker voice. 

And we sat


And we waited.. 


And babe was asking me. "Seriously who the f* are these ppl" hehehe 


And we were restless..


And we cannot stand the XPDC vocalist who kept flicking his hair. 


And we went to the toilet


And we came back from the toilet


And they were still singing ... 


sampai kul 11:50 pm gitu tau. Almost 2hrs. Panas bontot aku. 


Then.. ada last segment plak.. Last segment dorang nyanyi acoustic, which was quite ok


Then... "ok bye everyone" 


Aish tu jer? 


Amy tak keluar lagi ke? Kalau tahu.. siang2 aku da balik. 


Anyway, this concert betul tak best pasal : 


1) Program line up. Search as opening act and XPDC as main act? 


2) Song's line up. One thing bout 'Search' is that, they have lesser popular songs that made it to the mainstream. Babe don't recognise most of the songs. I'm dissapointed that they did not perform Kejora and Rozana :-( which in my opinion are much more nicer that the other 2 or 3 songs that I don't recognise. 


3) Comparing Wings concert to Search concert, Wings' concert was way much better. Awie performed most of their popular songs (but that's because they have more nicer songs) and I more goose pimples moments when they were playing some of the songs. Search on the other hand sounded normal but this may also be due to the bad sound system. To say sound system is bad is an understatement ! To hold a concert in indoor stadium is a bad idea. Yes I know that place can accommodate big crowd... but the sound really sucks. 


4) At myself. Stupid me... did not backup my SD card. 6G in used and i cannot take more video. Uwaaaa 


The moment dorang cakap selamat malam.. kita apa lagi terus rush to MRT station. Hoping we do not missed the last train back. 


Kalau aku tahu Search tak perform lagi, siang2 aku dah balik. tak payah la aku rush rush. Ishh.


Tak lah sampai rumah kul 1pagi kan? 


PS : Just notice that i did not blog about Wings concert.. Hmm.. 


Dear D'Touchz, 
I heard Ella & Awie performing in March? Can you please do it at Suntec or Esplanade please?

Tomoe my cat

Tomoe is my pet cat.
He's as old as our marriage.
We've been married for 14 wonderful years together and we or rather hubby picked him up from the bus stop 1 or 2 years after we got married.

So he should be 12 or 13 years old which in cat's life, Tomoe is an old old old cat.

Recently we noticed that he craves for attention and like it a lot when we are in the same room as him.

His current favourite pose

Even when you can see that he's sleepy, he'll not sleep as long as we in the same room.

Here's a close up of my baby.

Naughty him on alert mode trying to grab the iPad :-)

He used to be much bigger but hubby rationed his food after seeing how difficult for him to lick his bottom after shitting :-)

He is very very fussy eater. He refuses Whiskey and Friskies brand.
This is what we feed him with.

For a cat... He very fussy about the cleanliness of his toilet. He will wait till we clear his shit before dumping again.

This is his toilet.

We use IRIS cat litter. We ordered 10 x 10kg packet which can last us close to 10 mth.
Psst even cat litter pun laki aku ration. :-)

Haizzzz sedih la aku kalau dia takde lagi...

Will be back next Monday. We almost missed the bus. Damm traffic jam.
