Went to this concert yesterday... Should be my first live band concert attended. Quite an okay experience, though frankly, I think I may not be a concert-person, so probably this one time experience is enough. Just to make clear, I am also not considered a Mayday fan, I just happen to like some of their songs. Some of my thoughts and personal feelings, so if you don't agree to, I can understand, hope you can too.
GOOD:
- Party experience very lively, not lose to other countries!
- Mayday sang for full 3 hours, including 2 encores
- Talking part enhances the entertainment factor to level up
- Guest is Rene Liu 刘若英. Her new song 各自安好 is quite nice!! Also sang 后来 too !
- Some songs that I happen to hear before can hum along
- The young "uncle" sitting besides me also not the "party" type, so I don't feel so awkward to be the person sitting down while the rest are are standing. Thanks thanks!
- The young lady at my other side is just enjoying singing and moving to the rhythm even though not as smooth, so I don't feel so paiseh too as my movements are also very awkward too. Thanks thanks!
- Good pyrotechnic and confetti to add to the mood! The screen animations are very well done too! So are the lightings!
NOT SO GOOD:
- Arrived close to the start time, so did not have a chance to shop for the merchandise and missed out this experience...
- Seem the speaker(s) got blasted at some point, as it was quite evidence where I was seating (PA6). The sound system and effects was not very good.
- Not sure if something happen to the mic too as the later near ending part the singer sound seems a bit soft and off.
- My original seat was more nearer to the centre of stage but the new seating plan added this PD1 and hence my position shifted quite a bit to the left.
- People are still standing on their seats... sigh... and raising their handphone (camera) to video... sigh... but very luckily for me, I somehow mange to get views in-between the raised hands and heads, so almost 95% I still able to see the band as they are at the extension stage, heng... but for those people behind these people, I am sure they should be pretty pissed off...
- When the guest rose up the stage, I initially thought she is 白安, then realise is Rene Liu.
- Was more hoping for 宇宙人, 告五人 or 苏慧伦 to be the special guest though, just personally
- Quite a few songs never hear before. Again, I think I was not a fan to begin with, so this should be normal, I guess. Though I will be happier if some other more common songs e.g. 你不是真正的快乐, 憨人 etc are sung...
- Some acts seem to be repeated, e.g. countdown with 笑忘歌... Its a bit... not so suitable? I also thought it seem a bit lazy on the organizer's end, though I perfectly understand the amount of time and effort that canbe cut if re-use, much similar to past years' NDPs.. but... anyway...
- Seats are too small! Not size-friendly for a fat person like me, hahaha...
- Very warm!!! The occasional droughts of moving air are a life-saver..
- Light stick is faulty, so had to shake a light-less stick for the whole concert duration... dampens the mood quite a bit...
Overall, quite a nice experience...
