Mayday, Gary is jamming it out
by Merran on Monday, September 24, 2012 { 0 comments }

So I'd been planning to blog about this for awhile now, but I never got around to doing it. So here I am compiling the three into the one post! From what I can remember anyway. Not sure how I'll do this, so just bare with me. This past few months, I went to 3 different concerts!

And in case you couldn't tell from the title or pictures, I went to Jam Hsiao, Mayday and Gary Chou's concert! I LOVE Gary and Mayday! Jam is ok, but I really went because my friend loves him and it was my present for my friend's birthday. But I ended up loving Jam's concert too. Amazing how things work out isn't it?

Dates for the concerts were:
Jam - 12th May 2012
Mayday - 5th August 2012
Gary - 8th September 2012

Stage presence
First off, I have to say I LOVED it when all three of them sang. They are all such great singers at singing live! And the songs that they chose were ones that I really loved to listen to. Though majority of the songs that Gary sang in the beginning were from his new album, so I couldn't sing along as much. Also there were no music lyrics on the screens wtf?
Jam: I found that I could sing along with most of the songs that he had. Of course it helped that there were music lyrics on the screen as well since I barely knew most of the songs. I found it highly ironic that the song I remember most from his concert was that one Mayday song that he performed. LOL As I watched him performing, I found that he couldn't stand at the one spot for long. He was moving back and forth continuously.
Mayday: I could seriously watch them perform all day long. There's just something about a live band that makes everything so much better. And when they have performed together for the past decade and more? The chemistry is pretty much out of this world. I also really enjoyed the fact that we got to hear everyone sing. There was that song that Ah Shin wasn't in, in which every other member had a solo song and it made me realise what lovely voices they all had. Also my voice died at the end. Why do they have such catchy songs that you can't help but sing along. And when I say sing, I say it quite loosely... it was more of a scream the lyrics along in a melodic way. LOL
Gary: This man is AMAZING live. I do not know how he can sing his songs consecutively. My voice pretty much died one song in because of the high notes that he has in most of his songs. LOL I was croaking already. What fail. And he is so lazy I can't even. HAHAHA He was SITTING DOWN for half of his songs LOL.

Interaction time
Jam: He is so awkward, he is endearing. HAHAHAZ Seriously, every time there was a pause in singing and he had to speak he literally went "HELLO!!!! HELLO!!!" and my friend and I just died laughing by the second time. LOL
Mayday: OMG I could listen to them speak to me all day long and not get sick of it. They could even read me my text books I swear. LOL They are so eloquent and the way they speak is just... GAH! And the fact that it was a group was even better because they had interaction among each other and hilarious things ensured. Like the time when Ah Shin asked all the members if they passed high school --> then who entered university --> then who finished university and only the drummer had his hand up (and in a peace sign too!), only for Ah Shin to go who's the only one who doesn't know how to play the guitar among us and said drummer lifts his hand up in a peace sign. ROFL! I also laughed when Ah Shin was all what is there to eat here? And people were screaming KANGAROO and he was all WTH? No way right? LOL
Gary: He is so eloquent and talkative I don't even. LOL And one good thing about him being from Malaysia is multilingual. Gary was switching between languages without even realising it. He was all "ok I will speak in Mandarin instead of English/Cantonese" But then he spoke in English quite often. LOL
