With the non-stop heavy beats and sound, Far East Movement had the crowd at the venue pumping whole night long. The show was opened by various DJ performers such as DJ Crystal, DJ Junior, DJ Ken, DJ Jakeman, and with DJ Earworm closing off the show for the LA Bass group. The Dirty Bass finally kicked off and took on the stage at a much delayed timing but it was all worth the wait for most of us!

Kev Nish, Prohgress, J-Splif, DJ Virman and the rest of their crew kept the energy going high throughout the performance with their awesome blend of hip-hop, pop, electro and dance music.

Truth to be told, I didn’t really pay much attention to Far East Movement‘s music apart from their chart-topping tunes. After the show, I’m sold – I’m a fan of their sick mix (DJ Virman does some sick mixtapes his own too, ranging from hip-hop, dance, pop, dubstep, etc. Go check it out!)

One of the best live shows everrrr!

Thanks SocialCentric & Universal Music Malaysia for the exclusive passes! Before you leave, check out my video below:

You’ve seen them on Youtube, you’ve seen them on other social media sites… now, you can see them LIVE in KL! In fact, the showcase is happening in another few more hours! Come on over to PWTC Tun Hussein Onn Hall later @ 7.30pm to witness the pretty twins sing their heart n soul at the Jayesslee Live in KL showcase, an event organized by Dash Fusion / Creative Central. Fret not if you haven’t gotten your tickets because there will be at-the-door sales at the venue itself, RM120 per ticket!

Meantime, check out the videos during the past few days they have been in Malaysia:

The two-hour event filled with exhilarating line-ups such as performances by our very own but well-known local band, Pop Shuvit, the hot all-boy Korean band Beast, alternative rock band Neon Trees and of course, well-known American band Thirty Seconds To Mars. It was definitely impossible to feel bored even for a second! The energy brought by the hosts (VJ Holly and Utt) and performers made the atmosphere livelier and more exciting!

Pop Shuvit’s front man – Moots!

The band rocked the stage with songs from their new album, Cherry Blossom Love Affair.

Besides that, the band continued keeping the crowd on fire by performing a few other songs with Man Bai, Daly from Ahli Fiqir, Daniel Tanapon Supwattana and Jamir from Slapshock.

K-pop sensation, Beast got the crowd going on with their awesome dance skills.

Although it is said that there may be a language barrier, I could still hear fans humming along the lyrics of their songs! That’s how supportive we are.

With their front man, Tyler Glenn – Neon Trees made their live stage debut in this event.

One thing to be pointed out was their popular single “Animal”, often played by local radio stations, was sang along by most of everyone in the crowd.

The talented Jared Leto from 30 Seconds To Mars.

The band performed favourites such as This Is War, King and Queens and also, Closer To The Edge.

I definitely had a great time being able to attend this event with my friends.

And thankfully for the express lane passes provided by Mastercard, we were able to skip the long queue at the regular zone.

It was held at Stadium Putra Bukit Jalil last Friday. DSLRs were not allowed to be brought into the venue, thus only managed to capture pictures using a compact camera. The view from Arena B isn’t that near also actually. Wished the tickets could have been for Arena A instead, front stage yo!

If i’m not mistaken, they played about 18 songs in their set list. They did Hands All Over, Makes Me Wonder and Sunday Morning before wrapping up their show here in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Though it wasn’t as crazy as Justin Bieber’s concert (due to those crazy little fan girls), this concert was pretty chill-out and it was definitely a memorable experience. And hey, I heard they’re gonna come back to Malaysia again soon! For those wanting Adam Levine to come back again, get your fingers crossed aite!

We had the opportunity to watch LAT the Musical aka Kampung Boy a day earlier from the official opening date during the preview night. Harith Iskander and Hans Isaac had done a fantastic job writing and directing LAT the Musical, not to mention great work to all the crews and casts such as Awie, Atilia, Douglas Lim and many more.

LAT the Musical is based on Lat’s famed work The Kampung Boy which narrates the tales of his life, beginning from his childhood right up to the peak of his career as a cartoonist as well as his ups and downs. If you know who is LAT Kampung Boy and you grew up reading his comics, I would recommended you to watch this show. Even if you don’t know who is LAT, do watch it too because it is definitely worth the effort, hard work, spirit and idea they had came up with.

LAT the Musical has multilingual dialogues using Malay, English, Chinese and Indian language in its play. The only complaint from me is that some of the Malay dialogues with Perak accent by certain casts were kinda difficult to decipher at first (even for a used-to-be-frequent Malay speaker myself) but somehow you’ll get what they’re trying to say anyway. Other that that, the musical show was awesome! The choreography was great, the set and props were awesome, and it is definitely… 1Malaysia hahaha.

Take a look at some of the photos that I have taken during the preview night show of LAT the Musical:

Also, check out the video below on some of the invited bloggers’ feedback after coming out from the theatre during LAT the Musical preview night:

LAT the Musical / LAT Kampung Boy Sebuah Muzikal will be showcasing at Istana Budaya from 16 March 2011 – 5 April 2011. For more info, visit their Facebook page OR head onto Ticket2U.biz regarding the show ticketing.

All you need to do is to visit their ongoing roadshow @ Fahrenheit 88, Bukit Bintang on the 18-20 February 2011. Various HTC phones will be offered at the Maxis roadshow and you can buy discounted concert tickets or as I said, redeem free concert tickets (worth RM255) from the roadshow!

Now okay, I know some of you aren’t staying in Kuala Lumpur city and might not be able to make it for the roadshow because tomorrow’s the last day. Fret not! Maxis is thoughtful enough to offer you other alternatives:

Now, what are you waiting for? I am going to watch Maroon 5 Live in Malaysia concert all thanks to Maxis & HTC, thus you should too! Go and get your tickets from them as soon as possible before the promotion ends! (visit their website for more info)

p/s: anyone wants to attend Maroon 5 concert with me? I might have extra tickets to giveaway too

So, the buzz had been going around… It has been confirmed that Bruno Mars is finally coming to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia in 2011! Check out his website and look under the tour dates section:

The Filipino-American singer is scheduled to perform in Putra World Trade Centre (PWTC), Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia on the 10 April 2011.

Who’s a fan of Bruno Mars? Try your luck by shouting “Bruno Mars! Bruno Mars! Bruno Mars!” in the comment section, who knows you’ll get a free ticket to Bruno Mars Live in Kuala Lumpur concert 2011? No guarantees k? #JustSaying Lol.

Celebrating its 10th Anniversary this year, Rock The World 10 had various local bands (ranging from rock, pop, punk, hardcore, etc.) performing in 2 different stages – the Main Stage & the Indie Stage.

I went in kinda late, thus here are some of the bands from Rock The World 10 that I managed to catch earlier this afternoon; freshly uploaded pictures as a ‘teaser’ for you guys! (more to be uploaded soon, hopefully)
