I havent written in a long long time...
Im not even supposed to use the computer but blogging should be alright.
Okay, SINGFEST!
Damn. Singfest was so damn awesome. Seriously, it was freaking INTENSE!!!
Damn. They were all so good. Stacy Orrico, the Jamie guy, One Republic, Panic At The Disco, Jason Mraz, Rick Astley, Pussycat Dolls and Alicia Keys!!! Shit, i cant stop thinking about Singfest. And im like addicted to the Pussycat Dolls now. Arghh...
So the day started and I went to Seth's church, Foochow Methodist, left from there and went to Plaza Singapura. Ate the pretzel dog from Auntie Annie's. Whew, super nice. Bought this wierd tasting Mr Bean ice cream thing. Taste like soy milk. Bleagh. Made our way to the grounds after that. There wasnt a that long queue there yet and waited for like 2 hours then we could go in. Went to buy some merchandise there once we got in, both of us bought Panic shirts and i bought a Singfest shirt. Waited somemore standing up for like 1 and a half hours. That got into this building and walked down to the field. People were packing up the front so we ran to get good places. Good some kinda good space like 15 metres away from the stage and there was the big TV in front of us. The TV was super useful. Waited somemore...
Finally after 3 and a half hours of waiting, Stacy Orrico came out. He voice was like WOAH. Damn super powerful... Then that Jamie guy came out. I forgot what was his name. If im not wrong its Jaime Scott. Is it??? Anyway, came out with his 2 man "band", one with a cello i suppose and another with like this elongated violin which plas like bass notes. Dunno what thats called. Sung songs that were actually pretty nice. He also sweated like shit. His whole front part of his shirt was drenched. We decided to sit down then cause One Republic was next. After the Jamie dude, everyone started moving forward cause One Republic was like a favourite i suppose. I got bloody irritating cause people were like pushing their way into spaces. So in the end, we were packed like sardines. Then One Republic came out. All of us were cheering and like Wooooooooo!!!!!! Sang songs from their Dreaming Out Loud album. Well thats their only album anyway... They sounded so awesome. They were excellent. Oh yeah, the Ryan Tedder guy, the lead singer, he splashed water over the crowd cause we were getting really hot. And the blooding water which is sold there costs like $2 per bottle. Damn expensive... Anyway, OneRupublic sang and sang for very long. Stop And Stare then Apologise... Sing sing sing. Threw somemore water. The event people started throwing bottles of water into the crowd also. But none reached where we were cause the stupid idiots couldnt even throw far. So then Panic came out. I think they were like the favourite out of all the bands cause i think their applause and cheering was the loudest. They came out, i didnt quite know many of their songs. But they sang I Write Sins Not Tragedies. That was the best song they sang. And they also sang Nine In The Afternoon which was also not bad. At the end, the guitarists threw their picks into the crowd and the drummer threw his sticks. The drummer looks like Jack Black. Really, the long hair and stuff. Looks like Jack Black in School of Rock. And his drums are like damn retro. It like customised. He has an extra drum. And decorated with stuff. Jason Mraz was next. Another Favourite. I was abour dark at that time so the lights came on. He sung lots of songs. Hes damn good. He can mix up the stuff and add in lyrics there and then. He was super crowd appealing. He can make the audience join in almost everything he did. At the end, he took pictures with those instant producing camera. Those that you can only find in America. Yeah, he took pictures of all his band people and threw them into the crowd. Super cool.
After that was the Levi's Fashion Show. Seth and I went to buy stuff to eat. Ate this chicken wrap which costs $10... So expensive. Went back and went to the Nokia Booth while the Fashion Show ended and Rick Astley started singing. We saw Fiona Xie there with a group of her guy friends. And we also saw Adrain Pang before that queueing up for food. Squeezed through the crowd to get back to our places and Rick Astley finished up. He was singing thos olden day songs. Those songs that our parents grew up with. Then it was the Pussycat Dolls. Whew. Got props and everything. Came out and started singing. Their voice is like so high and i was half deaf when they ended with Dont Cha. They also sang their new single, When You Grow Up. I didnt even know they had another album coming out. So after seeing them perform in front of my eyes, i became kinda addicted to them. I LOVE THE PUSSYCAT DOLLS!!!
We decided to leave when they ended cause we didnt fell like watching Alicia Keys perform. So we went out and walked to Plaza Singapura. Left from there.
