JAY CHOU CONCERT WAS THE SHIT. special thanks for denise for hooking it up with some phatty row 7 tickets at the fabulous shrine auditorium. jay chou was even better in person than he is on his records if that is in any way possible, but i guess that just goes to show that he is indeed crazy good, maybe even the next andy lau. so the night started off with me andy and jerry going to the shrine and parking in the back of some ghetto ass burger joint. then we meandered around until we found the shrine. then it turns out it was easy as shit to find people and we just walked right through the VIP line and got in SO GOOD. though i did have to sneak my camera in unnecessarily by putting it under my belt. THEN we go and we have these PIMPASS seats and vic and i start to rock out as the concerts starting but everyone else was just sort of chillin. it was more of an intimate, smaller setting than his usual stadium venues so that was hella chill. so then he starts off the concert on this cross coming down like the gangster that he is. then he sings a lil qing tian and all his like intro shit. then he does all his hip hop stuff with some dancing. finally it was the part that we all were waiting for. THE BALLADS. he did all his classics and some of his new songs. TORNADO, ge qian [new], qing xing aka star love that i did for chinese class, my song JIE KO [excuse] from his new album, and of course the saddest one of all AN JING.
im a lover not a fighter........ so... chinese people can be total assholes. so when jay starts off his legendary simple love, hes like OHHH this one imma come down and talk to the audience on this one so everyone is getting all craaaazy. so sitting as close as we are i HAVE to rush the stage so me and vic go. so we're running up and hopping over the divider, pushing our way through to the front, and taking mad pictures along the way. everyones jumping up and down and jays coming giving high fives and shit, when all of a sudden i feel like a tap or osmething then like bam bam bam thats when i realized this fat fuck next to me socked me... i guess at the moment i was too stunned as to why this enormous piece of shit would be punching a fellow fan, but i was also too preoccupied at jumping up and down like a retard trying to get his hand which i fucking did so eat that u taco eating chinese hater. hahahaa im just kidding, what comes around goes around. so he too will have a black eye that i think i will wake up with. whatevers though, i dont mind cuz JAY CHOU SHOOK MY HAND AND HIGH FIVED ME
Now can I get an encore, do you want more... he did all his ye hui mei hits like ni ting de dao and sang dong feng puo as part of the encore for all the parents who came to see the concert with their kids. he even sang a song for all the canto people out there.... but u know its all about the mandarin ;] i jest i jest. then jay chou again proved why he was the shit by doing a million encores, pumping the crowd up and shit busted out KAI BU LIAO KO. hella rocked to that and ended it with his newest hit qi li xiang which i just learned so all in all it was a fucking awesome show. the lighting was tight, the singing was tight, the dancing was tight, but most importantly the company was tiight.
If you live on the east coast, GO TO HIS CONCERT IN CONNECTICUT u dont wanta miss it. i got a lot of pics but here are just some of the ones i resized cuz resizing is such a bitch.... sorry but the best pics are those stored in my mind SUCKAS. enjooyyyy
denise and i before the show

jay came down on this cross for the first song, in the name of the father.

snow in la, i guess only for jay during ni ting de dao

we wanted landy, instead we got NAN QUAN MAMA though their song with i wanta staaaaay was tiight. even jay made fun of the fat guy and called him a retard.

jay had to come on stage to save em though

everyone was sooooo tame in the beginning

we rushed the stage and it was fucking awesome cuz it was simple love and got to shake his fucking hand

me and jeff. yes koreans were there, so were white people, black people and mexican people

the lighting was tiight. sooo much better than an outdoor concert

gangster

jay represented la with a lil tupac on his pants. HELLA rocking out

busting out the nunchucks which he later threw out to the crowd and we were so close to catching

gotta love them asian encores

ending with qi li xiang was perfect

me and christine after the show gooo itasa

THE MEET AND GREET AUTOGRAPH SESSION- THURSDAY so on thursday i was eating lunch in san gabriel and decide to meander around the 99 ranch market mall. LUCKILY i did cuz i went to the jewelry store to check out watches and was talking to the lady, only to find out that JAY CHOU was gonna have an autograph session there in a few hours. OF COURSE, i had to stick around. so i ended up hanging around san gabriel for a few hours, pretending to buy jewelry and the such... it was quite the adventure. so its andy, connie, tim and me. we're just waiting and shit. then theres this VIP line for people who bought tag's but i didnt think it was really worth a 2000 dollar watch...apparently there are crazier mofos out there than yours truly. so he finally rolls up in a stretch hummer limo which was hella pimp and i was ONE FOOT AWAY from him. it was fucking sickk. later on this huge ass bus shows up with his face plastered on the side. the funniest part was when this cop rolled up and gave the bus a ticket. harharhar
anyways jay ran away after a few signatures and went upstairs to eat where people continued to flock at him but he escaped through the back.
me and tim chang at the meet and greet

andy and connie at the autograph session. i witnessed first hand how gangster connie is. we were chilling outside while jay was eating and i turn around and see that connies about to go in to the restaurant and shit and became like best buds with the promoters, all in like 5 seconds. 
they were selling all this jay merchandise

jay's stretch hummer limo... sweeet

in other news, winter break is passing by faster than fall quarter went by dont cha think? i mean its already been a week but i stilll have done nothing. oh the joys of being at home. this winter has proved more why socal was the shit. the weather is absolutely amazing u can walk around in a tshirt and jeans and ull be fine. got to see elaine finally and my friend from hk. sweeeeet
i dont know why but this year im especially in the holiday spirit, listening to christmas songs, watching the usual holiday movies. and it feels good. its a pretty happy time so hope everyone is having a good time too and is safe... cuz in two weeks, we'll be back at school getting rocked once again, but also i learned that we tend to bring it on ourselves at times with extra curriculars or partying, mainly partying getting in the way of school. but hey thats what new years resolutions are for, making false promises to make ourselves feel good. woohooo i just found out that keira knightley is older than me by 6 days. what the fuck. she is so pretty, especially in love actually. that movie is the shit btw.
if i dont talk to you and you're reading this, dont think that i forgot or didnt think about u in this holiday season but heres a early merry christmas and happy new years to you all. say goodbye 2004. |
