Two less lonely people in the world...

And it's gonna be fine
Out of all the people in the world...
I just can't believe.... that I won free tickets to this concert!

Muahahahhahah... setelah kekecewaan di Konsert Awan Biru and the Beyonce-tak-nak-pakai-purdah did a no show, this concert - Air Supply Encore, restored my faith in good music and old school entertainment. This two granddad had much more spunk then the supposedly king of rock kapak malaysia. Ok let's not talk about that flop of a concert. Let's focus on this one.

Of course.. all great concert had to either be on a working night.. or on Sunday night. It's a challenge for those honest, hardworking people like me. (yes.. I hear your Ya Right?!) Hahaha.. Well, climbing up and down the frickin hill at night still is a challenge ok. So we decided that we shall take the bus, the sky lift and get a bus down again. A few frantic phone calls later, I found out that there's a last bus going down the hill at 10.30pm.. or was it 11.00pm. Hmm we thot the concert might finish at 11.30... so takpe la.. if we have to missed out a few songs.

At 5.30pm, we boarded the bus to Genting, together with a the throng of Bukit Clan and a few holiday goers. Very embarrasing as we were dressed as if we are going to climb mount Everest and yet the Bukit Clan are all in shorts and tank tops.. as if they are going to Patong Beach. And of course Bukit Clan already knew that no food or drinks are allowed on the bus, so we had to hide our Big Macs and Whopper Junior in our handbags. Celaka.. now handbag smell like meat.

We slept all the way to Genting. Happy days when discovered that there's a long queue going up. Had to queue with a now larger Bukit Clan. Yipppeee. When we reach the resort, we had to find our way to Arena's of Star. Bapak la jauhnya. Suddenly when all calories are burnt plus the cold wheather.. lapar la pulak. We ate at Merry Brown though the price was riddiculously expensive. I truly hate this place. Kota Keriangan apanya if ayam 2 ketul sampai RM12? Siapa yang riang?

Sigghhhh... now it's 8pm, the concert hall is still not yet opened. Rupanya, band tak siap sebab baru sampai dari Bangkok ke Manila ke Singapore tah tghhari tu. So atuk2 belum bangun tidur lagi agaknya. Finally when the doors open, kiasu level reached all time high. Bukit Clan's kiasu level lagi la tidak dapat nak dibantu. Semuanya tak reti nak beratur. Pantang tok nenek aku if orang cut queue depan aku. We manage to separate a couple who's holding hand who purposesly cut in front of us. We simply push our way thru.. and heard the boy friend said.. relax relax.. no need to push. Relax kepala otak nenek sebelah bapak tiri kau. If you don't know how to relax and not cut queue, don't expect me to relax as well ok. So belum2 lagi dah hangin. Haihh!

After waiting for 20-30 minutes, the lights grew dim and the concert starts. Yeaaaaa.....eh hold on, this is not Air Supply. It's some dude who sang 2 songs... one of which, My Way by Frank Sinatra. Layan je la.


And then.....

Now the night has gone
Now the night has gone away
Doesn't seem that long
We hardly had two words to say
Hold me in your arms for just another day
I promise this one will go slow
Oh, we have the right you know
We have the right you know


Don't say the morning's come
Don't say the morning's come, so soon
Must we end this way
When so much here is hard to lose
Love is everywhere I know it is
Such moments as this are too few
Oh, it's all up to you
It's all up to you


(Chorus) Here I am, the one that you love
Asking for another day
Understand, the one that you love
Loves you in so many ways


Tell me we can stay
Tell me we can stay, oh please
Those are the words to say
The only words I can believe
Hold me in your arms for just another day
I promise this one will go slow
Oh, we have the right you know
We have the right you know


(Chorus (2X))
The night has gone, a part of yesterday
I don't know what to say
I don't know what to say


AAAHHHHHHHHHHHAAHHHHHHHHH... they opened with my fav song!

The crowd went WILD. Aku jerit macam la nampak Brad Pitt bukak baju. The crowd was on their feet the whole time. Singing along with them. Satu lagu aje aku dah sakit tekak. When they came down from the stage and went walk about amongst the crowd... dari WILD dah jadi MADDNESS FRENZY plak. Ni la baru concert! They sang all of their hits. Sebijik macam karaoke.

We manage to stay till the end and still catch our bus. Though the driver bawak macam F1, belasah all the sharp corner masa turun bukit, akak tido nyenyak uols. Sedar-sedar dah sampai KL.
Rasa macam inspired nak karaoke session layan lagu Air Supply aje. Any takers?

p/s: esok tu aku tak MC eh... jangkaan meleset semua orang di office :)
