29/08/2009

finally it's the mayday DNA concert in singapore.
actually another performance was added on 28th, and li xin phoned me on that very morning (i was still slping) that she had tickets. but i didn't go after all. $60, didn't expect good seat. she told me on the next day that they shifted seat to lower row right in the middle. omg! chin teck and i were full of regret. but i was told later that both were almost the same.

anyway on 29th, met up with li xin in douby ghout for dinner then took a bus to indoor stadium. happen to see weilin and.... i can't remember the other guys's name >_< (forgive me!) i know some of my friends will be going to the concert too. saw chin fong there before i went in, and took a pic with her. she had tickets 5 row from the front. OMG! "i'm not selling it to you even for a 1 million dollar." the entrance is good, a video is shown about them trying to escape from their daily life and steal john lennon's DNA. while escaping with a taxi, later on a real taxi was rushing out from the top and the concert started. the stage is nice too. 10th anniversary for their 1st concert.

chin teck went high right from the beginning of the concert. lol...







i like the part when 恋爱ing was sang in jazz. they sang many other old songs too.
concert ended at 12:20am, time for me to rush down to elizabeth hotel to watch manchester united vs arsenal which kicked off at 12:15am, was suppose to meet up with ji sheng and gong, but i didn't expect the concert to end that late. i jogged for around 2km in order to get away from the crowd to get a taxi, really don't want to miss the match.

end up the result is disappointing, arsenal lost 2-1. arsenal was the better team that night even ji sheng admitted (he's a manu fan who wore a manu jersey in an arsenal fan club) diaby's own goal is unexpected, he headed into his own goal from giggs's cross under no pressure from anyone. as for almunia's foil, yes that was a penalty. and i shall not go into referee's performance. the match ended with an epic scene off the pitch when wenger was told to walk off. he had no where to go but to walk up in front of the manu fans and stand, which later i read online that the chief of ref sent in an apology to wenger.
