Cheer Chen's concert on 4 April left me with a URTI the following week.
But it was amazing, although I preferred the first one I went to in 2007 I think. preferred the more intimate setting then. This time's concert was a bigger production with many LED screens, a crane and a platform as well as a scooter, and a few encores that seemed "planned". Missed the spontaneous encores back then when she appeared with her crew even when the lights were on and all of us stood on the chairs hahaha...
But her voice is still very moving, especially in songs such as 鱼，下个星期去英国，告诉我，旅行的意义，失败者的飞翔，After 17，太聪明...she's forver so angelic just with the guitar alone. beautiful. 太有气质了！！ was very surprised that she wld sing 会不会 - 1 of my favourites as I thought it was a great song. Loved her rocker side in 太阳，吉他手，Self. this is wat i like abt her - can always hear the strength and "attitude" in her gentle, child-like voice. wA THE gUITAR Hero PK segment was amazing too. Especially with her boyfriend-cum-guitarist-cum-producer. so cool lo. I still think her bf very lucky hahaha...
I felt I didn't enjoy myself as much as I should have was cos I was sitting at the side. For Cheer's concert, I realise that one should have a centre view to see the whole stage, becos the beauty in her concerts lie in the whole stage presentation. Morover she seldom walks over to the sides - don't really utilize stage space as much as other ple like Jay or Coldplay hehe... SO next time must get a centre view!
But it was still a great concert. It was very nice of her to try to be close to the audience. Even saw the fun side of her, sailing thru the crowds, trying to take fotos with them and taking fotos of us, "spouting" words of wisdom - no wonder she's a philosophy major hehe...Being in the same venue as somone like Cheer just makes me feel a bit more "refined" hehehe... how i wish i can have 1/100 of her 气质 & 内涵 hahaha...
绮贞,你是我的太阳！
