Too few highs and too many lows...

In fact...there's onli 1 high...and dat's i found another guy selling the LOTR extended version DVD too!!! cheaper of 5 bucks from my very first bid some more...talking abt a blessing in disguise...Hur hur hur!!!

Now for bads...i think its gonna be pretty long...i'll tell myself to avoid doing concerts of bollywood stars...ever again! i was thinking how bored i would get for this time's concert...i was so damn wrong...

List of things that should happen but did not(or vice-versa)

----------------------------------------------------------------

The people who have come for a concert will usually be blur blur mong mong ca ca...so they would ask us ushers for help, where we would gladly oblige (actually we're paid to do so...dats diplomacy for you)

This crowd would also be mong mong ca ca, but they ignore us ushers and "gey kiang" (hokkien for act smart) try find their own places... so...its the blind leading the blind...causing quite abit of confusion and stuff...

----------------------------------------------------------------

Concerts with usually start off with the star of the concert singing a fast number, to try up the tempo and with instrument solo performances held somewhere inbetween the show(give the star time to change costume...)

This concert starts off with easily 15-20 mins of instrument solo b4 someone actually speaks...and its...not the star...

----------------------------------------------------------------

Concerts with usually start off with the star of the concert singing a fast number, to try up the tempo and with the guest singer/s coming on later at some point in time for the star to rest and change to another outfit

After the super long instrument solo...a girl comes out...no...she's a guest singer...not the main star...still...she starts off the concert...

----------------------------------------------------------------

There is hardly anytime for any part of a concert to have a 30 min segment on talking...juz talking...dats not a concert...dats a stand-up comedy!

Somewhere in the middle of this concert a guy comes out and thinks he's Bollywood's Chris Rock...ok...so he's pretty good...judging frm the audiences' laughter...

----------------------------------------------------------------

Its common for a concert to have 1 or even sometimes 2 guest singers...and they usually perform together, or in other cases, one after the other...

For this concert...the first guest singer starts off,followed by the star, then another guest singer, followed by the stand-up comedy, then again ANOTHER guest singer sings...b4 the star decides to come back up on stage again

----------------------------------------------------------------

Usually the star of the concert would ask the audience to cooperate and sit down, for everyone's good :) how considerate

This star has to say "its ok, let them dance!", while then the ushers will have a hell of a hard time controlling the crowd while being scolded by the other audience at the same time...hard life...

----------------------------------------------------------------

Usually concerts' security guards are quite beefy guys(think bouncers) to manage crowd control

This concert has either old men who look like 50+ or kids who look like 16+ as security guards...WTF!!!

----------------------------------------------------------------

Other concerts' audience are usually pretty active in sneaking to the front occasionally for a quick camera shot or 2, but with a warning...they'll go back to their seats, hence...the security guards have it quite relaxed most of the times...

This audience dun bring cameras with them, but they still run to the front to dance infront of the star(rem wat the star said?)...and its up to us ushers to control the crowd...where the hell r the security guards? stoning on the upper levels...bloody hell...to think they get a higher pay...those bastards slackers...

------------------------------end-------------------------------

it realli got quite bad on a few occassions where a whole crowd would rush down...theres even this skinny punk who kept dancing his way down in a very obscene manner(think wacko jacko)...my fellow usher/friend ZC would be patiently telling him to go back up to his seat...dat bastard punk is not respecting ZC man! so being the impulsive (might i add righteous and protective? Hur hur hur...) me...i briskly walked over and pulled the bastard punk to one side with my fiercest face i could make shouting into his face "U WANT MI TO GET SECURITY HERE???" dat bastard punk than gives mi the "come wack me up" kind of face...b4 i could do anything...2 fellow ushers pull mi back b4 ZC signals the bastard punk to get back to his seat...luckily the bastard punk is smart enough to do so...dun misunderstand that i was gonna punch him or something...i wont be that foolish...realli! my fellow ushers tot otherwise...hehe! i'm a good actor!

think this post is long enough...too long infact, sorry for wasting ur time :)

OH OH! another high! i did get slightly over 30 bucks this time round...this concert's way tooooooo long...gotta get compensated for dat...

"i still dunno wat i want in life, but i already have quite a list of wat i dun want in life!!!!!"
Stinko...working the opposite way...
