Ann + I, Kelly Clarkson's Tour '10.I am a very happy girl and you know why? Finally, good things are coming to our shores. I can't believe that it's only April and omg, i think i have been to three of the best concerts/ live showcase ever already in the past two months.
First there was Placebo @ Life Centre, KL .
I have to admit, i wasn't even a fan to begin with. I knew probably just two songs and that was because they were overplayed on the radio's just before the band was here. I knew some hardcore fans were like going crazy trying to buy up the tickets but i got mine for free & at the the last minute courtesy of Fly Fm. hehe. Anyway, i am very pleased to say by the end of the night, i had a few of their songs additively stuck in my head. I must say that they are a really, really interesting group. Let's say eclectic & definitely not mainstream. But good job, it was really enjoyable.
Just last weekend was Kelly Clarkson, All I Ever Wanted Tour @ Bukit Jalil.
Oh man, how i got to the concert was a miracle. Firstly, i had only one ticket & i didn't wanna go alone. Then on Sunday, my sis #1 said she managed to get two tickets & i was ready to go till the person i was taking couldn't make it back to KL on time. I wasn't going by then coz i haven't got the tics yet and if they were the cheapest seats, then there's no point. Needless to say an hour before showtime, i find out that the tickets i was getting was courtesy of StarWorld & both tics were worth RM 700. That's front row, mosh pit worthy views! The concert was really good as Kelly sang every hit song she has. The whole stadium was continuously singing alongside in unison. Btw did i mention she did a cover of Kings of Leon "Used Somebody"? Everyone went nuts. I appreciate how old school her concert were - sing hit songs, dance around, do some awesome covers & finally, no "i love Malaysia" sugar coating unlike some acts. We love you just the way you are!
And just yesterday was Stereophonics @ Life Centre, KL.
Homigod! I swear i was gonna pass out when i heard the rumour that they were coming & when they confirmed their gig, it was so surreal. Do you know how much i love Stereophonics? Anyway, as usual i contemplated buying tickets. I know, you are going "what!?". Lemme explain first. As usual, i couldn't think of anyone who wanted to go for it. No one seemed to be a fan except my sis #2 who in a twisted irony got VIP tickets for free & was going with her friends. To cut the story short, as usual everything boiled down to the last minute. So two hours before the showcase, chris who had to endure me complaining that no one wanted to go decided to buy me a ticket as a belated birthday present. Haha. Thank you! Anyway, it was the best gig ever i have been. Stereophonics was so insanely awesome and mind blowing as Micaela put it too. Alot of people agree that they sounded great playing live than in their records & i couldn't agree more. I managed to score great views from upstairs & together with my sister + friends, a bunch of really rowdy American/British & some other hardcore fans, we were positively going nuts up there. Did i mention they were selling alcohol? This pretty much got the majority of people really relaxed which in my opinion made things more fun & loose. This is definitely my #1 favourite for '10.
In the past, artist/bands like these don't make it to our shores ever but someone out there must be working real hard to bring them all. I sincerely love you man whoever you are x
