Went to the 五月天 " 好好好想见到你 " Mayday Fly to 2022 新加坡演唱会

 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:

  1. Party experience very lively, not lose to other countries!
  2. Mayday sang for full 3 hours, including 2 encores
  3.  Talking part enhances the entertainment factor to level up
  4. Guest is Rene Liu 刘若英. Her new song 各自安好 is quite nice!! Also sang 后来 too !
  5. Some songs that I happen to hear before can hum along
  6. 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!
  7. 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!
  8. Good pyrotechnic and confetti to add to the mood! The screen animations are very well done too! So are the lightings!

NOT SO GOOD:

  1. Arrived close to the start time, so did not have a chance to shop for the merchandise and missed out this experience... 
  2. 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.
  3. Not sure if something happen to the mic too as the later near ending part the singer sound seems a bit soft and off.
  4. 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.
  5. 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... 
  6. When the guest rose up the stage, I initially thought she is 白安, then realise is Rene Liu.
  7. Was more hoping for 宇宙人, 告五人 or 苏慧伦 to be the special guest though, just personally
  8. 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...
  9. 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...
  10. Seats are too small! Not size-friendly for a fat person like me, hahaha... 
  11. Very warm!!! The occasional droughts of moving air are a life-saver.. 
  12. 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...
