E-Mail came from the friend Wendy of Hong Kong. "I heard Although a lock record carries out the live at the old airport, Anthony also comes out." Wow! In fact, I have not yet heard Live of Anthony. Also deer, I am going to be in Hong Kong January 18 with a concert. This has already said that God should go! I was sure. I asked arrangements instantly. But In a schedule, it is the marathon live of 8 hours! Wow?! 8 hours! And it is the outdoors?! I became that it is likely to be discouraged for a moment. But I must go on! I try to challenges spirit.
Special thanks to Ms Wendy.
Now, after arriving in Hong Kong, I receive a ticket. Then, it is said that the place was changed. The place changed from the old airport to immediately near Hongkong International Trade & Exhibition Centre. I don't understand a situation, but It was changed indoors. I am very glad! Performance schedules are all and are 8 sets. Wubai & China Blue, Chang Chen-Yue, Sticky Rice, Wild Child, Seasons Lee, Chan Yee-Ching, Anthony Wong and Park Ji-Yoon from South Korea. Since it is a 8-set performance above, they are 8 hours and a half during scheduled time beforehand. I will be going to pull up, if the turn of Anthony of a certain thing finishes interest with Wubai or Chang Chen-Yue. Because, I am since the concert of Jacky is also due to go.
Since the concert was 2:00 commencement of a performance, I arrived at the MTRKowloon Bay station past 1:00. From a station, it is a shuttle bus to the hall and is a little less than 10 minutes. For a surrounding spectator, most is in his teens or the first half of the 20th generation. In accordance with a wall, it stands in a line after reaching Hongkong International Trade & Exhibition Centre. Aside from the shade, sunlight hits, or it becomes and is hot. I appreciated for it having been changed indoors.
If it notices suddenly, it will be in about 2:00. But A sequence has no sign of completely moving. Were 2:00 opening time? It moves in front a little at 2:15. It goes into a lobby at last at 2:30. The reason which took time in entrance here became clear. The lobby is divided with the fence and the check of a ticket has separated. There is a gate different from Area A, Area B, and Area C. A ticket is cut here and a tape is rolled by the left-hand head. The person of the ticket end winds around a left hand. After that, The load was carried and inspected on the long desk which is backside! There is no memory which still received load inspection and cautions once in Hong Kong. I was surprised. There was a poster of "No photography and No recording" in a back pillar. The guard who investigates a load takes a camera case in his hand. He opens a case and takes out an inner camera. Although it was whether I am confiscated for a moment determined, it returns as it is, and finally it is. There is a container of big garbage which is in a dump beside a desk, and inside is full of food and drink. It is said that the inside of the hall is the ban on eating and drinking. The situation became clear later. At the LMF live performed prior to this live, There was an accident said that the PET bottle which the member threw was injured in the spectator. Seemingly, it became the ban on PET bottle carrying in this time for accident prevention. In addition, seemingly, the check was put in since the drug was circulating with the rave from the police somehow. They said The affair of a PET bottle was used for the reason of exactly good intervention. So, About three persons are caught in drug possession this time.
A photograph is the bag of goods which was being distributed at the entrance. Red one is an outside bag from the upper right, To a clockwise rotation, it is a badge. The stellar point shines in red greenish yellow like a lower photograph, This badge is attached with a magnet. Fluorescence stick, It is used and is already a free stick. Blue one is the area belt wound around the wrist. a whistle, since it competes for all and blows, it is very noisy. All performers' seal. half ticket in this concert. It will become large if a photograph is clicked.
Then, I goes into the hall at last. It's so cool. It is the ordinary box which seems to be used for a show etc. usually. Since they use usually, connecting three boxes of the square which is seemingly divided, Area B and Area C of both the sides almost become a position just beside. And there is a pillar in the boundary of A, B, and C. I who was the area A of middle have also separated 5M from the stage also in the front row. becouse, As shown in a figure, there is a fence doubly. VIP area quite empty between a stage and us gets angry.
It leans on a fence and waits at the hall of the club style which became desolate for a long time....If it starts at any rate, since it will be pushed from back or the side, while thinking that I could also go right in the middle to a slight degree. Then, Having started after all is past 3:00 ! & The distance which is the grade which will not drive if who will put, and cannot touch an arm to the last had been maintained. Although it thinks that only my surroundings did not have behavior at the reason for saying that it was good.
It is past 3:00 that the live started at last. (it does not already understand for details) Having appeared first is Seasons Lee. Although I was the person who does not know at all, it was the impression referred to as whether to be the first "visual locker" in Hong Kong at the time of an appearance. He was the appearance which is likely to be mistaken for a hotel boy or a waiter with a white shirt and black trousers. But The appearance is so cute! When investigating in the network now, it was a fairly old person. Seemingly he does collaboration to per 96 or 7 years with Anthony, or Tats Lau Yi-Dat and Anthony Wong Yiu-Ming have stepped on the stage together.
But A performance is begun, so...Unsatisfactory, Well What I says. I think Japanese boy, They performed street live in the town is well tham him, may be. It's especially a back band! It is not necessarily said that vocal is also so much attractive. My comment were above.It is Wild Child if it continues. This is also the band of Hong Kong and it is a Hip Hop line. vocal calls "greenhorn's jim". "Greenhorn's Jim" threw the PET bottle to the seat for audience, after consenting to the measure of the ban on PET bottle carrying in, or the incident of LMF. The seat for audience was a large cheer. Individually, I feel that the way of Mandrin tends to ride on a rhythm for Rap or Hip Hop. But I think Hong Kong line Rap had the unexpectedly good rhythm. Incidentally "Greenhorn's Jim" bears a strong resemblance to Jan Laum.
The 3rd is Sticky Rice of Taiwan. Similarly They are a Hip Hop band. Since it is coming to Hong Kong by the event etc. repeatedly, they are already the situations of familiarity. Since tolk is the Mandrin, I do not understand it at all. But it is although the Contonese is sufficient and it does not understand. The vocal of Sticky Rice runs about the stage, enters into a double fence, and instigates a spectator. Although the photograph was the direction of Area B, he overcame this blue fence and was pulled by the spectator. Although I have forgotten for details, It intrudes, while those who have recognition in the stage by per 3rd music the middle sing. The T-shirt of an orange, the red cap, and the man of red shorts were Jan Laum when seeing well. Last time, since they did collaboration by the live of Jan, So did he become this appearance? All appearances of Jan were the cheers terrible at the moment understood to be him who spread when unexpected.
The upper photograph is a thing by the side of Area B among those which suited the wall of the stage side of Area B and Area C. From the left Seasons Lee, Anthony Wong, Park Ji-Yoon, Chang Chen-Yue.
At last, It's an Anthony Wong appearance in the 4th. I thought that it was a fairly early appearance. Then, he had appeared in "Goldsong2002 award" of Sha Tin as guest presenter. (Refer to What's New) So He had no time.
It is positioning of Anthony that I was most worrisome by this live. It seems that it is truly called the "individual supporting player" instead of "Anthony Wong of roast pork steamed filled dumplings" in the latest Hong Kong. But, It is a thing in the movie world. It was anxious in the music world and an event which has much especially Teens such in what treatment is received.
Well, as soon as Anthony appeared, He was said. "Wow! It's in the distance fairly wholly. Those who are ahead, They have not paid money. In front, those who have not paid money are. Are the persons who paid money back?" His words were welcomed by the spectator. Even me who was in the foremost, It was so far that zoom was filled and only a photograph of this level could be taken. (Refer to right) This will already be giving up a photograph and enjoying the live, I understood so and enjoyed the live. So Subsequent photographs are from a mass-communications photograph.
The 1st music was "Underdog Rock." He had sung playing the guitar followed by a back band. Of course?! as for words, much slang was contained.
He is the shout midst, The middle finger was highly raised like a photograph. (^^;;
He did imitation which throws between songs the PET bottle which drank water, As opposed to the thin spectator who was attached fluorescence stick moreover and who throws indiscriminately. He said to a spectator's voice of "remove". "I'm not a duck(male prostitute). It is expensive when I remove cloth." Wow!
"Men in 40 and no work" of the 2nd music, much slang is contained again. Since he ran about the inside of the stage with the microphone, he tended a little the middle to get out of breath. Was he stimulated by the youngman who came out before, or He is always the live like this? But I think Such a tension will have 1 hour as hard as possible.
The 3rd music is "I am a handful of fire"(Literal translation). He played the harmonica in the interlude part. Seemingly He will come out and words will sometimes become a faint memory, He was looking at sheets music placed on conga at first. He took out the chair the middle, and since he put and sang the leg to conga, he also had the scene where the place for sheets music was lost and words became doubtful a little.
The 4th music is "For No Reason". With this music, the "pupil" Jo Koo of Anthony appears as conga charge.
The 5th music and the last music are "Brother". Since this music was the blues, it was the touch which settled down a little. So It was Anthony which finished the stage, He was excited and in a good mood.
From the newspaper, after finishing a stage according, Seemingly the face still carried out the high tide of him, and he had panted, when mass communications carried out to back stage. And His comment. "I'm 41 (years old) already. It's so hard." It is said that it is "not Rave Party, Just Rock Show" this time according to him. I think by "Rave" that I am sure with there having been nothing.There was a recess for 20 minutes after the part end of Anthony. (since it is the ban on food and drink carrying in) I was standing all the way for about 5 hours already, So I was frustrated this scene. Although he wanted to hear Wubai and Chang Chen-Yue, I do not maintain at all for 3 more hours (or 4 hours or more).
The man of the same idea makes it result very well, and there is, So The shuttle bus which goes to a station was no vacancy mostly. I think It's impossible too for 8 hours ! I think The story is different, if it sits down behind in a field event at least and is a protracted war. But there is also a situation that made the hall change suddenly with directions of the authorities, and neither preparation nor management had time this time. I am waiting for the event in the hall with a seat next time.
