This morning serene approached me and asked if I would be interested in watching Chris Daughtry concert tonight. I was hesitant at first as I dont know what would my plans be in the night. Had quite a few plans initially. She had 2 tickets and she herself couldnt make it cos she had deadline to meet.
So i asked Ong, who's normally available for last minute plans. She wasnt free. Wanted to ask nata, but her mum is here and it's her last day here. Asked around but people already had plans at night. SO i didnt want to go. Good news came during lunch. Ong had a change of plan that night and said she could go. So there we were! After the choir practice today, I went with Serene to take the tickets in her office and then off to meet Ong in Orchard.
We went there an hour early and we already saw a queue growing. But thankfully we were still quite front. At 7 sharp, the gate was opened and we were there pretty front. We thought the whole place would be full so we didnt dare to move to anywhere else. Before Daughtry's performance there were 2 local bands entertaining us. We both liked the second one, EIC. They sounded decent and pretty nice. In front us, were this irritating group of teens and there was one of them who danced as if he's boxing the air and a few times his friends were pushing him around and it did look like there were gonna be fight. It was pretty irritating. Worse than being in a club.
During the Daughtry's jamming session, the air was pretty stale and stuffy! Before the last song ended, we just had to leave cos our feet were sore and tired, and my shoulder was already aching from all that straining our necks to see Chris in person. I must admit his voice is really powerful! And his songs were all good. Before his turn to perform, Ong had already told me that she wanna go home after just listening to a few of his songs cos she was really tired. But in the end we stayed on throughout!
When we left, we realised that at the back, there were really few people and you could still get a good view of him! Furthermore there were fans blowing. We regretted choosing to stand in front. When we looked back, we really thought that it was full since the queue were pretty long too.
But all in all, I enjoyed his performance. He has a weird drummer though. The drummer reminded me of Will Farrel! Creepy and his dressing sense was... ehm.............
PS. Something stupid : I didnt bring a single camera along! SLR wasnt allowed and I was hesitant about bringing the normal camera out. Stupid stupid stupid.
