The day finally arrived. Aaron's concert after 5 years, not that I've been to his past concerts... or any others' past concerts... But I expected something more after all the hype. My role was actually just the companion of the boyfriend but this being my 2nd time watching a performance at the indoor stadium (first was the circus when I was little..), I was keeping a super open mind like I have always had for first tries for anything.
The concert lasted only for 2 and a 1/2 hours instead of the reported 3 hours. Even then he spent much time trying to blow the saxaphone w/o much success. He tried and tried. For like 5 times? Blowing the same tune over and over again until I was yawning away in my seat. There was no encore too, just a hand waving from the bottom of a hole in the stage to appease the crowd and which I suspected didn't even belong to him at all.
The only redeeming parts were those in which he was singing those more popular sentimental ballads and the dances for the better known adrenaline-pumping songs. Even for the theme song for Para Para Sakura, he was shaking hands at the bottom of the stage with over- enthusiastic female fans who were thrilled to tears and who were jumping for joy as shown on the screens. It's disappointing that he didn't even attempt to dance for that song. Hello? Even if I were to sit in a KTV room to watch his MTV, I would have got the chance to see him dance. Didn't even sing the last song, just bowing at the initial part of the song while the song was played and then he left for the backstage. End of concert.
Not worth watching at all. *Shakes head*. He was singing mostly cantonese songs and spoke in Cantonese all the time. ''-_- Luckily I had a personal interpreter hahha...
A surprised me with a pair of tickets to Sammi's concert. I really really hope hers would be much much better.Labels: Aaron Kwok, entertainment
