Zhang Zhen Yue's and Free Night concert 16Feb08

Went to the concert held at Esplanade concert hall with Jeffany and Joey.

1. This is my first time watching a concert at Esplanade. And being Zhang Zhen Yue and free night (a rock band), it was an unusual location.
2. The concert started on time (at 7.30pm. The one thing i liked about watching any musicals and concert at Esplanade is their reputation for punctuality in starting on time)
3. He had a 4 piece band with a drummer, a bass, a guitarist and a keyboardist. A simple set up with nothing fanciful, just nice music
4. There is this fan with a "站" word (Stand in mandarin) and whenever she wanted all to standing, she would turn around and display the stand word and all of the audience started standing
5. MC Hotdog got everyone 'high' with his mix of rap and hits (我爱台妹）with ah yue
6. Ah Yue is humorous
7. The gang was dressed casually. A sighting that's rather rare in normal concerts (normal meaning those concerts with lots of clothes changes)
8. As it was an unplugged concert, they do things very impromptu. Eg, getting the keyboardist to sing (boy, he's good man.), had impromptu 模仿show of another band
9. No encore. Ah yue do not believe in it
10. He had an autograph session after the concert and his albums and souveniers were selling hot due to that
11. I took closed-up photos of the autograph session
12. The concert ended at 9.30pm

In summary, i enjoyed the concert. Its simplicity and impromptu makes the concert very uncommercial and very natural. I think most music "players" have this special touch. And i think they did a great job....

Here's the photos....
