The Script - No Sound Without Silence Tour Live In Malaysia 19th April 2015

The Script had their first Malaysian concert in April! :) I was fortunate enough to attend it.

I have always enjoyed listening to them since their "Man Who Can't Be Moved" days, and I'm so happy to see them doing well and getting the credits that has been long overdue. 

We bought the sitting ticket (learned my lesson after the OneRepublic one!). There was a venue change (originally was in Putra Indoor stadium, like the Adam Lambert one!) and I was a little nervous that it was going a fair bit of distance from the stage (like the Linkin Park one!), but we had a pretty good view :)

Pic taken from the Script's Twitter account. I added the yellow circle to show where we sat!
 What's cool about them is that they are very interactive with the crowd and their gratitude is very genuine. You really do feel the love! The entrance was the bomb! They walked through the crowds to the stage singing Paint the Town Green. Mark and Danny sometimes will run down the stage and go to the side to play for the fans at the back. Thank you for remembering us!!! It is much appreciated. At one point Danny used the GoProCam and sang in between the seated crowd and the mosh pit..and sang while walking through the crowd. Glen did an awesome job drumming. You may be hiding behind the drum set, but we see you! :)

Their performances included songs from their latest album, No Sound Without Silence, and played a few favourites from their previous 3 albums. It was really entertaining. I was REALLY looking forward to the song Flares, but it was not in the song list :( (Next time, ok?). American singer Colton Avery opened for them. He did a really good job!

They closed the concert with Hall of Fame - very apt and a great song to close with. Too bad there were no encores :( Hey, with 2 solid hours, I shouldn't be complaining!)

Never have I seen such a genuinely appreciative band live. The Script, you have really impressed me. Any other band coming for a concert here has a tough act to follow and big, big shoes to fill. Thank you for your music.



What's more fantastic and confirm that they are really an awesome band, they decided to stream their Croke Park (Dublin) concert LIVE worldwide!! It really brought back a lot of good memories, and the best part: we got front view seats! :D Since I knew when the intermission was, I could go for a loo break too. haha It was aired at 4am in Malaysia (their 9pm in Dublin). It was worth waking up. It was really fun, but I had to watch it with earphones and silently mouthing the lyrics as my sister was asleep :) I was of course, joined by my concert buddy, Ms.Jackie who also attended the KL concert with me. IT WAS SO FUN!!!!!! This time we could actually take pics hahahaha
Excited and nervous, I downloaded the app Livestream just in case the website messed up. Fortunately the website streamed it superbly well. So I shut the other one :D

LOVE!

Ever wondered what music sports people and celebrities listen to? I was watching the Olympics swimming competition and the swimmers were walking to the pool. Suddenly I see Michael Phelps walking out with earphones.. I wonder what he's listening to? So here are a few pics of sports people/celebs and what I think they're listening to. All the pics aren't mine, I took 'em off the net, so credit goes to whoever that took the pics k? Feel free to contribute your thoughts ;) USA NBA Star Lebron James - Getcha' Head in the Game [High School Musical] Russian Tennis Player Maria Sharapova - The Kill [30 Seconds to Mars(Venus)] Chelsea football/soccer player, Nicolas Anelka* - Second Chance [Trisha Yearwood] * missed a penalty at the Champions' League Final Desperate Housewives star Terri Hatcher - Yet Another Plumber [Flashlight Brown] Super fit Fergie - Work It [Missy Elliot] Cristiano Ronaldo* - Holiday in Spain [Counting Crows] * was rumoured to move

Come Read With Me (February)

Image
I've got 4 books to share with you for February :) First would be a book given to me by Mariposi (aka Gavin) for my birthday. Was so thoughtful of you! Thank goodness he gave me the English version as I do not think I would be able to tackle the original version (which is in Spanish) as my vocabulary in Spanish is abysmal at this moment. The cover of the book pretty much sums up the story - A novel in monthly instalments with recipes, romances and home remedies. The story is set in a ranch in Mexico. A boy resorted to marry the sister of his girlfriend just so he could be close to her as she was destined to take care of her mother till her mother dies as she was the youngest of the family. I love the way Laura writes and she incorporates a lot of recipes in between the main plot. I just watched the movie (no subtitles!) and it was a good thing I read the book beforehand or else I might have gotten a little lost. They followed the book 100% and it was really good :) For more informa

Barcelona!!

Be warned: This is a super long post..longer than my Al-Hambra one! I'm finally blogging about my next destination during my trip to Spain.. that is none other than the lovely and quirky.. BARCELONA! After the last day of class (Friday), my friend Nav and I took the bus to Madrid..we booked a flight to Barcelona from Madrid at about 6.30am (i think?) on Saturday morning. We said our goodbyes to our housemates and new found friends, and departed the beautiful Salamanca. On the way to Madrid (last time onboard the efficient and comfy Avanza) I caught Ávila at night and I must say the view was breathtaking, it happened to quickly and I couldn't take the pic on time. Managed to catch the colourful sky though =) Skyline - trust me if was so beautiful in real, the camera gives it no credit at all. We spent the night at the airport, but I didn't get much sleep at all - THANKS to one lousy couple who sat opposite me..that lady had an annoying high pitched laugh..AND SHE KEPT LAUG
