Last week, Pakho Chau 周柏豪 Shiga Lin 连诗雅 from Hong Kong were here in Kuala Lumpur Malaysia for their album promo tour. They had a music showcase plus autograph session at Stage Club Kuala Lumpur on Friday night. Organized by GAM Entertainment, Pakho and Shiga were here to promote their latest album Imperfect Collection and Movin’ On respectively.

Scheduled to start at 9.30PM, both of them arrived around 9.45PM and came out 15 minutes later. MyFM DJ – Gan Mei Yan 顏微恩 was the emcee of the night where Pakho Chau 周柏豪 was the first artiste introduced up on stage. It was the first public appearance in Malaysia for Pakho Chau 周柏豪, a talented Hong Kong singer who kick-started his career back in 2007.

Shiga Lin 连诗雅 of Lan Kwai Fong 喜愛夜蒲 fame was here in Malaysia for the 2nd time where the last time she came was just last year in June. Pakho Chau 周柏豪 performed 2 songs 天光 and 無力挽回 where Shiga Lin 连诗雅 delivered 2 songs as well 起跑 and 到此为止.

There was a short game session after the performances where 5 lucky fans were picked by the emcee to be up on stage. The fans got to sing with their idol and the crowd get to decide who wins an autograph CD. The highlight of the session came when one specific fan-girl got all of Pakho’s fans jealous when she leaned on his shoulder while singing with the singer – check out the 2nd picture below.

The autograph session started right after the game session and it lasted for a good 40 minutes. Overall, the music showcase was good, just wished they performed more songs. Personal thought: Shiga looks a bit thinner now compared to when she was here in KL last June, hope she’ll gain back a bit weight! By the way, check out the videos recorded during the show below :

Joey Wong 王祖贤 is a Taiwanese-born actress from Hong Kong who rose to fame in Asia through the character 聂小倩 Xiaoqian in the movie 倩女幽魂 A Chinese Ghost Story which was released back in 1987.

She has been living in Canada since her retirement 11 years ago and recently, there are rumors of a possible comeback by Joey Wong 王祖贤 to the entertainment industry. Up till this day, she still have a strong following and Hong Kong/Taiwan Paparazzi still find it interesting to report about her.

2 particular companies in Hong Kong, one being a jewellery brand another a cosmetic brand have expressed interest in inviting her back to Hong Kong to attend an event in May/June this year. It was speculated that both the companies are willing to pay an appearance fee of HKD1 Million each. The negotiation is currently going on involving the PR company of 何超琼 Pansy Ho, the daughter of Macau Tycoon 何鸿燊 Stanley Ho.

That means if she agrees to attend the event, she’ll receive a total of RM800,000 and this would most probably build the path of her official comeback to the entertainment industry. Below are some her pictures from her active years in the industry.

Would you like to see her appearing on the silver screen again?

Taiwan’s biggest rock band Mayday 五月天 was in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia over last weekend to perform at Putra Indoor Stadium, Bukit Jalil two consecutive nights on both Saturday(2 March 2013) and Sunday(3 March 2013).The band consist of Ashin 阿信 (Lead Singer), Monster 怪獸, Stone 石頭 (Guitarist), Masa 瑪莎 (Bassist) and Guan You 冠佑 (Drummer).

When Mayday 五月天 came to KL, Malaysia for their 五月天變形DNA無限放大版世界巡迴 (2008-2010) in 2010, I had the chance to experience an amazing night and till date, that was still one of the best concert I’ve attended. Same like their last world tour, concerts of Mayday No-W-HERE 诺亚方舟 World Tour 2013 LIVE in Malaysia 马来西亚巡回演唱会 is based on a concept which revolves around the end of the world and the search for a new ‘second’ life where the whole idea came from the concept of their 8th album, Second Round – 第二人生.

Starplanet shared that this specific concert is one of the most expensive concert to organize as the amount of stuffs needed to complete the look and feel of the whole performance stage area are pretty complicated. This includes the huge amount of LED screens installed on the stage plus five gigantic elevated platforms installed along with the stage and all these excludes the sounds system as well as the overall lightings around the stage. The result? The visual experience was superb. Those who were sitting far away must have felt like they’re watching a movie altogether.

However, I felt that I didn’t enjoy as much as I did this time compared to their last concert back in 2010. Filled with impressive graphics and animation with video montages that comes on stage with 5 elevated platforms and massive LED screens everywhere, the sound and lightings was all good and Mayday 五月天 wasn’t disappointing at all. It might be just me but I liked that the overall concept of 五月天變形DNA無限放大版世界巡迴 more. I think the band interacted more with the fans back in 2010 as well. Of course, I still enjoyed myself pretty much singing along with some of the familiar tunes by Mayday 五月天!!

Malaysian Mayday fans are one of the best crowd in the world. Most of the fans who attended the concert brought along a unique custom made concert LED Light Stick. Before the concert, fans left messages on various Facebook pages about this custom made Mayday LED light stick which was available for sale at the venue for RM20 and believe me, the atmosphere through out the concert will never be the same without these LED light sticks.

It was a mesmerizing night with the LED lights shining through out the concert and to be amongst a hardcore bunch who sang along every single song, I really had a good 3 quality hours enjoying the show featuring Asia’s top Chinese band – Mayday 五月天.

五月天 Mayday No-W-HERE 诺亚方舟 World Tour 2013 LIVE in Malaysia 马来西亚巡回演唱会 was made possible by TuneTalk and MyEG with the organizers – StarPlanet 星艺娱乐.

Last Sunday, Paramore was here in Malaysia performing in front of 5,000 die-hard fans at Stadium Negara, Kuala Lumpur. It was their second time here in Malaysia since 2010. Tune Talk and BlackBerry was the 2 main sponsors which makes this possible – the Return of Paramore Live in Kuala Lumpur 2013.

The band Paramore which is currently consisting of Jeremy Davis, Taylor York, and Hayley Williams, have been through since their last show here, most notably losing founding members Josh and Zac Farro. Of course, the Malaysian fans were fully supportive up till now when they came for the 2nd time.

Tune Talk and BlackBerry Presents The Return of Paramore Live in Kuala Lumpur
Date : Feb 17, 2013
Venue : Stadium Negara, Kuala Lumpur
Time : 8pm

The concert started at 8PM+ with another act mewithoutYou, an American rock band from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania where the band performed for like an hour long. From my past experience attending concerts, it’s my first time ever witnessing another act having so much performing time out on stage compare to the main act. The title of the concert was the Return of Paramore Live in Kuala Lumpur. I find it a bit ridiculous and funny but good thing the crowd didn’t create much commotion and Paramore delivered a fantastic performance that night.

I mean like if I were to purchase tickets to Paramore concert and it was announced that the concert will start at 8PM, I went earlier, waited patiently till 8PM comes, then an act apart from Paramore came out to perform near to 1 hou followed by a 15 minutes break (for the crew to re-set up the stage for Paramore) before my favorite band Paramore make their way out, I would feel a bit pissed off. No offence to fans of mewithYou but when I was standing in the rock zone, I heard quite a number of people complaining about mewithYou’s type of music and at times, I was annoyed too. Duh.

Well anyways, Paramore made their way up on stage at around 9PM++ and brought the fans through a tracklist of 18 songs in total delivering a quality high energy performance that night.

Starting off with Now to That’s What You Get, the crowd at the rockzone were jumping and singing along loudly at the same time with their hands way up in the air waving. The atmosphere was superb and all I can say is Hayley Williams is still the same highly energetic icon of Paramore I’ve witnessed in Paramore’s concert a few years back here in KL.

There’s no doubt about her vocals, what I really respect about her is her dedication in performing live as well as interacting with the fans which had me all impressed with two thumbs up saluting her. Through out Paramore’s performance, the strong crowd of 5,000 die-hard fans sang their lungs out every single song. It was amazing!

At the end of the day, I’m sure Paramore’s fans went back home with a big smile on their face. A few bruises or muscle pain due to the extensive jumps and maybe having sorethroat as a result of singing out from their hearts, but it doesn’t matters. Paramore ROCKS.

Full Track/Song list of the concert :
Now
That’s What You Get
Born For This
Pessimist
Decode
Renegade
Pressure
Careful
In The Mourning
Only Exception
Let The Flames Begin
Fences
Looking Up
Ignorance
Monster
Brick By Brick
Encore : Hello Cold World
Encore : Misery Business

Malaysians are one of the most active bunch of people on the internet spending loads of time on various social media platforms. With the availability of high speed broadband in Malaysia where we can access and digest the latest trends worldwide, Malaysians are quick in picking things up and translating memes it in their own ways. The Harlem Shake phenomenon that emerged in early February didn’t went unnoticed by fellow Malaysians due to the Chinese New Year period, instead there are around 300 videos in total created by Malaysians (Assumption base on “Harlem Shake Malaysia” search term on YouTube) at the time being.

That being said, here are the top 5 Harlem Shake videos made in Malaysia by Malaysians based on total views (Excluding compilation videos) :

Harlem Shake (Goncang Haram)

Harlem Shake (Epic All Star Edition)

Harlem Shake (SHAWN LEE EDITION) MALAYSIA!

Harlem Shake (Malaysia Edition)

Harlem Shake (MY FM Edition)

Malaysians are a bunch of AWESOME people!!!!

In early 2012, a 30 minutes long YouTube video became viral pretty quick. The downfall of its virality escalated even faster. That’s KONY2012 for you if you remember what’s that all about.

Now in early 2013, the viral mode has been activated on a 30 seconds long track. A track which comes along with a video featuring a bunch of people doing stupid things in the last 10-15 seconds. THAT is the current Harlem Shake phenomenon that is taking over the world at the moment. But what exactly is Harlem Shake?

For your information, Harlem Shake can be referring to 3 things.

Harlem Shake (Dance)
The Harlem shake, originally called the albee in Harlem, is a dance that started in 1981. The dance became mainstream in 2001 when G. Dep featured the Harlem shake in his music video “Let’s Get It”. It has its history from a type of dance exercised in the Amhara region of Ethiopia, called “Eskista” and was allegedly started in Harlem by a man named Al B.

Harlem Shake (song)
“Harlem Shake” is a song recorded by American DJ and producer Baauer. It was released as a free digital download by Mad Decent imprint label Jeffree’s on May 22, 2012. The song incorporates an undulating synth, harsh snares, a mechanical bassline, and samples of growling-lion sounds. It also samples Plastic Little’s 2001 song “Miller Time”, specifically the vocal “then do the Harlem shake”, which is an allusion to dance of the same name. Baauer added a variety of peculiar sounds to the song so that it would stand out.

Harlem Shake Phenomenon (meme)
In February 2013, a YouTube video set to “Harlem Shake” developed into an internet meme. The media response to the meme helped increase the single’s sales, as it reached number 12 on the US Dance/Electronic Songs chart. It also charted at number three on both the Scottish and UK Singles charts. The meme is in the form of a video that began being replicated according to a similar concept by many people. The art form of the meme was established in a video uploaded on February 2 by The Sunny Coast Skate, five teenagers from Queensland, Australia. The teenagers’ video, in its turn, was a follow-up to a video by a YouTube comedy vlogger named Filthy Frank featuring a part where several costumed persons danced to the song “Harlem Shake” by Baauer.

This post is about the Harlem Shake Phenomenon (meme).

Throughout the second week of February 2013, more than 4,000 “Harlem Shake” videos were uploaded to YouTube each day, according to YouTube’s official trend report. By February 13th, approximately 12,000 “Harlem Shake” videos had been posted, gaining more than 44 million views.

If you’re comparing both Gangnam Style and Harlem Shake, then stop it. They are of different leagues altogether. Just keep calm and do the Harlem Shake! Oh and I personally think that this whole phenomenon won’t last long.

One of the biggest highlights of the Chinese entertainment scene this Chinese New Year 2013 is the reunion of Taiwan Boy Group F4. The Taiwan group which rose to fame in 2001 due to the popularity of the Taiwan Idol series – Meteor Garden 流星花 was on 江苏卫视 JiangsuTV for the special pre-recoreded Chinese New Year TV show with fans who flew as far as Canada to watch them performing. The show was broadcasted on the 10th of February 2013 which is the first day of CNY2013.

最爱是你 生命动人因有你 我挂念你 深夜达晨曦
常自不觉地 日夜算日期 而时日减少你 长得似世纪
仍最爱是你 坚定自持因爱你 纵隔万里 心跟你飞
今天你请珍重 寂寞你便荡来
来甜梦中把臂 风吹雨飞 多晚都等你

The song Together sang by 鄭伊健 Ekin Cheng was released in 1999 and back then, it was the golden era of Cantonese music. With the initial release of Napster in the same year, I still had limited access to various music with only 56k internet speed. So, I’ll visit the nearest night market to check out what are the latest hot tracks. Saw Ekin Cheng’s latest CD that time and I really bought the disk back home where the track Together became one of my favorite Cantonese songs since then.

Well anyways, Robynn & Kendy just released a YouTube cover song on Together – 鄭伊健 Ekin Cheng and I liked it. Listen!!
