LAST NIGHT WAS SO FREAKING AMAZING. I'M GOING TO TRY AND COVER IT BLOW BY BLOW BECAUSE I'M A STUPID GIRLFAN WHO WANTS TO REMEMBER EXACTLY EVERY SINGLE MOMENT OF THE CONCERT. HEHE. I BET THIS IS GOING TO BE THE LONGEST ENTRY EVER. HAHA. AND I DONT KNOW WHY ON EARTH I'M TYPING IN CAPS SO I WILL STOP NOW :D
ok so first, we had dinner at thaiexpress. i was stupidly too excited to eat. and liming is the best 'doctor' ever. she told me that MARSBARS are the best cure for gastric! hahaha. so after eating less than half of my pineapple rice, we headed down to grab a big ass mars bars to fill my tummy :) and i'm happy to report that it works! it really settles your stomach. hehe. walked around the esplanade - which is a beautiful place to hang out really. and there was this pretty good live band playing outside which made the atmosphere even better. :)

headed into the concert hall. managed to sneak my camera in, yay! haha. seats were great! close enough :) so the opening act was the unexpected. they were alright. it's just that you know, when you come to see someone, and you get something else, it just doesnt quite cut it. but yeah, they were alright. afterwhich, the lights came on without ANY indication whatsoever that it was intermission. i was just like huh?? haha but anyways, went to get our free drinks. and then hung around outside. taufik was like standing right in front of us. but it was only when he walked off that we realised it was him. haha
so back into the concert hall. the lights go down again. and like this two dudes walk out onto stage and everyone starts screaming and screaming. so both of us just start screaming and clapping too. (i'm so proud of liming cos she'd never even heard any of his songs before. haha) i seriously couldnt believe that was him like just, what, 10m away? toca and jasonmraz, they were both so cool. like just decked out in shirts and jeans. nothing fancy at all. but their presence was just whoa. so jason starts off with a little whistle. it was so cute. i think someone screamed 'i love you!' and i was just like ditto! hahah. ok here's the setlist i ripped off from the forums. heh.

his voice is just seriously amazing. he didnt go off pitch ONCE throughout the whole damn concert. the music was just toe-tapping, tear-inducing, sing-a-long AWESOME. anyway, some of the best parts werent even when he was singing proper. there was this part where he sang a cover of some old song called Our House or something. and then he asked the audience to sing 'our house, in the middle of the street' but hardly anyone sang. probably cos we werent familiar with the lyrics and tune or something. so he was like maybe this song is too old. so he jumps right into the black eyed peas 'Where is The Love' and omg he did such a great version. he was all 'where is the love?' and jumps right back to 'our house, in the middle of the street'. haha. and he had some super chemistry with toca, who's just simply super on the bongo drums. oh and two of my favourite parts - jason's looking around the concert hall and goes 'this is beautiful. kind of makes me wish we dressed up.' and then he starts singing in operatic falsetto. and i just LOVE it when a male singer does falsetto. :D the other time was when he started making trumpet sounds or something. i was just blown away at that man.
ok i'm pretty out of words right now. i mean there's only so many times i can use the words 'amazing', 'super', 'awesome', 'great'. honestly, even those words don't do justice to the performance the both of them put up. i really really really wish that he had meant it when he said 'actually toca and i play here every friday night. this is just the first time we've promoted it' bah. i wish i was mad, rich and willing to spend. i would so fly over to australia now and book tickets for all four of his next shows. i seriously think his performances are ADDICTIVE.
anyway, stupid esplanade didnt allow photos. but what the hell. i managed to take a few! hehe.
toca the cutie bongoplayer and JASONMRAZ!!


all happy and satisfied!
so after that, went to the equinox for some drinks and wedges. damn they charged us so much for that! but whatever. the drinks and food were good and we were hapyp so yeah. hahah.
ok i probably missed out so much. but there's just no way words can capture the coolness of last night. so yeah. i shall end off with two of my favourite pics of WHO ELSE!

GOTTA LOVE THE GEEK IN THE PINK. :D
