The Singapore Social Concerts is a 2-day concert affair with Blush, Carly Rae Jepsen and Ceelo Green on the first day with a special performance by Psy. And Euphoria Audio and Aerosmith on the second day. All in all, I have no complains about the concert. It was great actually. Great sound, great stage visuals and the side screens and awesome performers and how it … Continue reading Singapore Social Concerts 2013 Post Mortem
Once again, it was amazing luck that we met Jeremy Piven and Steven Tyler of Aerosmith. It was after the Star Social Awards and we figured that we’ve already missed the last train on the circle line that we decided to walk towards the Marina Bay MRT station. We strolled through the Marina Bay Sands Shoppes and at one part we rode the escalator up … Continue reading Meeting Jeremy Piven and Steven Tyler of Aerosmith (again) in Singapore 2013
The inaugural Social Star Awards was held at the Marina Bay Sands MasterCard Grand Theatre on 23 May 2013 at 9 pm. I’ve been to a few award shows and I must say that while it started the latest (9 pm!!), it was also one of the more fun and irreverent shows. Also I think there was a sadist theme that night based on all … Continue reading Social Star Awards 2013 Post Mortem
After the Star Social Awards press conference and its associated adventure, I headed down to Clarke Quay for Music Matters Live. I head down to Music Matters Live every year to check out new acts and reacquaint with familiar faces. So I was actually quite torn and sad that I wasn’t able to go down for all days of Music Matters Live this year because … Continue reading Electrico at Music Matters Live 2013 Post Mortem
Meeting Brad Whitford and Steven Tyler of the Aerosmith was such luck! I know when I say I meet celebrities by luck, many people don’t believe me but it really is true! After the Star Social Awards press conference, we went to the toilet and when we’re done, in typical Singaporean fashion, we stood in a circle while trying what is going to happen next … Continue reading Meeting Brad Whitford and Steven Tyler of Aerosmith in Singapore 2013
The band that I was most excited to see: Aerosmith!!! They are frickin legendary and I finally get to see them!! I am in complete awe of their presence really. They ooze of so much coolness even though they are already in their 60s. With a career that spans more than 40 years, they are no doubt amazing given how many bands never make it … Continue reading Aerosmith at the Star Social Awards 2013 Press Conference
Finally, I get to see Psy in the flesh and at such close distance. He really is a pretty damn cool guy if you ask me. I have so much respect for him as a person and an artist. He really is very realistic and practical about never reaching the same success as “Gangnam Style” with “Gentleman” and he is not going to beat himself … Continue reading Psy at the Star Social Awards 2013 Press Conference
Honestly, I was actually quite surprised as to why Chester See was at the press conference. He wasn’t a performer at the Star Social Awards so I was a bit like, “huh?” when he came on stage to be interviewed. It was actually a little awkward because many of the media people in the audience were actually the same people who were there at the … Continue reading Chester See at the Star Social Awards 2013 Press Conference
SkyBlu’s interview at the Social Star Awards 2013 press conference is actually pretty entertaining. He is so cool and happy to spill the goss. Haha. SkyBlu was asking for spicy/saucy questions (which reminded me once again why I usually prefer stalking and talking/interviewing English international acts). They are way more cool with naughty/fun questions and are not worried to mess up. It was pretty much … Continue reading SkyBlu at the Social Star Awards 2013 Press Conference
Carly Rae Jepsen was the first of the performing artists who were brought out to meet the press at the Star Social Awards 2013 press conference hosted by Dominic Lau. I must admit that I was tired as hell from all the running around (since last friday) that I didn’t bother to take notes on what Carly said during the press conference. That said, I … Continue reading Carly Rae Jepsen at the Star Social Awards 2013 Press Conference
