ARTHUR'S DAY

to say that the show was rocking would definitely be an understatement! it was awesome to be a part of such a huge event (in fact the arthur's day celebration in Malaysia was the 2nd biggest one only after the one in Dublin).. the set up was huge, the turn out was great, and the entertainment was entertaining..

to be honest with you, i enjoyed the performances from our Malaysian artistes even more than Taio Cruz himself.. not selling him short or anything like that, but it was obvious that our performers just put that much more effort and preparation into their shows..

Prema yin kicked off the night with an energetic performance (i also thought her dancers were amazing! nothing to do with one of them being my gf. hehehe).. she also did a rendition of Adele's "rolling in the deep" which i thought was awesome..

next up was another rocking band, full of energy and presence, Dragon Red! what stood out about their performance was their rendition of "Careless Whisper" which blew everyone away.. good job guys..

needless to say when the queen of malaysian hiphop, none other than Mizz Nina took the stage, everyone was fired up and dancing and singing along. the fantastic visuals on the backdrop just added that much more style and colour to her set. oh and of course her dancers were good too, really filling up the stage well and making it that much more hype..

next up was the President, Joe Flizzow himself. one of the best performances of the night for me. rocking a live band, Dj Biggie on the decks and Sona1 to hype him up, it was an excellent performance.. he also brought in some asian flavour by bringing on a rapper from Thailand and a rapper from Japan. kudos to one of my very good friends for an unforgettable performance...

next up was none other than Taio Cruz himself.. no live band, no dj, no dancers, just Taio Cruz.it was still a good show though, as he got the crowd singing along and jumping up and down to his very well known tracks, but like i said, our Malaysian artistes performances were much more impressive for me..

as grandly as the night started, that just how it ended, with an awesome fireworks display filling the sky with sparks and colours to bring the Arthur's Day celebrations to an end.. well done to Guiness MY for hosting such an awesome event, im definitely looking forward to next year!
