Babe For Life

All my friends know I am a fan of Taiwanese Band, 'MayDay'. I will only buy their CD and attend their concerts without any hesitation. So there is no reasons for me not to attend May Day '变形DNA, 无限放大版' last Saturday.

1. I received a sms from Yvan at 2am in the morning. She lost her MayDay Concert ticket!!! When I saw the sms, that was already 9am in the morning. Imagine, she must have searched the whole house till wee hours, and decided to send me the sms asking me for my details. According to her, if a ticket is lost, what is needed is just the transaction number from Sistic. They will have a record of what is purchased, and they will issue a replacement ticket at $5. However, the tickets I bought this time, was bought by a friend of mine. So there was no transaction number for Sistic. Poor Yvan has to search through the whole house again, never miss any corners or drawers. And she even made her way back to office and see if it was hidden in between files or in the drawers. Finally Sistic agreed to issue a ticket for her, if I can bring all the tickets to prove that I really did buy the tickets.


2. It started to rain heavily in the afternoon. So we were all praying hard that it will stop asap, so we can all attend the concert without getting wet. It stopped after a few hours, but I heard the heavy rain damaged quite a lot of machines on stage and the Transformer Robot they brought over from Taiwan. All the staffs tried to repair the machines, causing the concert to delay for one hour. We queue for so long outside the Stadium, but we can only start going inside at around 7pm, by then, the quene was like s super long snake wriggling outside. And on the ticket stated, concert will start 7.30pm. Next the Transformer could not move as programmed. However, it never dampen our spirit. because all of us still love the concert!


3. Due the heavy rain, the field became so muddy. And seats are all wet. And based on the design of the stage, we have to walk a super long way from the gate to our seats. Fortunately, I was wearing slipper that night, but most of my friends wore flats. So their shoes simply became so muddy and wet! Imagine watching a concert with soaking muddy feet covered by muddy shoes. Erke!!! How to enjoy??? I dare not jump and dance as what I did in previous concerts, but only stand at a certain area throughout. When i left, I saw my footprints on the floor.


4. Though it rained in the afternoon, the night is still so hot! Everyone was busy fanning ourselves when we were not swinging our hands in the air. Everyone felt so sticky and hot, and there were no wind that night. I noticed that there were big fans at the side, but WHY NEVER SWITCH THEM ON!!! Wonder why they placed the fans there, but never switch on, Then put there for what!!! The shredded papers which were sent flying to us, seems not romantic anymore, It dropped onto our bodies, and sticked on to us! We were so sticky and hot and the papers were causing itch... Even MayDay commented that they sorted of regretted to have their concert outdoor because it was so hot!!!



5. The best part was there were 2 big group having concerts at the same area, MayDay in National Stadium, and S.H.E in Indoor Stadium. Frankly speaking, 15,000 people to MayDay, 8,000 to S.H.E, everyone to go there was a big challenge. Fortunately, the circle line to Indoor Stadium started on that day, so there was a new way of transport, instead of bus and taxi. Then leaving the place was another challenge, because we have 2 hugh groups of fans leaving together. Even though concerts ended at a different timing, but the amount of fans leaving were still a problem. We managed to leave around 12am after calling in for a cab.

Overall, I must say, it was a Fantastic concert, despite of all the frustration. All of us had a great time! Will wait for them to come again! We are all waiting!!!
