HK May 2011

I didn't do very much during my 6 day stay in HK last week other than attending Mayday concerts XDD

Our daily routine revolved around Tsim Sha Tsui and Mongkok. Stumbled on some good eating places. Mostly Japanese - had one too many udon and ramen meals - in between dim sum, spaghetti and yakiniku.

And we made several visit to Stay Real to redeem the pencil set =]

阿信連喝水都那麼可愛! 哈~~~

20110520-22 Now today. We Just Rock It!! 「就是」Just Rock It 香港演唱會

4 nights of「就是」Just Rock It 演唱會 went by too fast. It was much enjoyable. A back to basics concert which featured little stage effects. By the way, the fire on stage during 春天的吶喊 was scary!

As usual, the setlist varied every night - which makes it so much fun to watch Mayday's concerts. My favourite were the second (21/5) and third (22/5) night. Good to see Ashin trying to use speak some English words (and gibberish Japanese) during concert - his inability to say Just 'Rock' it properly is too funny XDD

I particularly like the Unplugged segment. 為什麼 never sounded better live. On the last two nights they performed 歡樂年華 and it was too cute! Ashin sang like a little kid ;)

There was also a segment which they performed songs that they (members of the band) had composed for other artists. I was overjoyed when they performed 第一天! The last I heard them performing 第一天 live was at the Final Home concert years ago. It was so good to hear them sing that song live again :) Another gem was Mayday's version of 愛是對的 which was composed by Masa. Now I've not heard the original version but the live Mayday version ROCKED :) Monster's composition 夢交響 for Ding Dang was also performed.

Each night featured a different solo from each of the band member. Stone sang John Lennon's Imagine on the first night - a very beautiful rendition, followed by Guan You's 超人 on the second night, Monster's 麥來亂 on the third night (my favourite !!) and Masa's 天天想你+最重要的小事 on the last night.

Ashin + guitar = ♥

All in all, it was a blast. Mayday never ever fail to deliver great performance. Don't need no fancy stage gimmicks - just 5 talented guys doing what they do best - playing great music :)

Double Edge enjoys dual sales success

Here's a bit of news on 3DNA taken from Film Business Asia, which seems to suggest the possibility of the movie being screened in Australia and Korea

By Patrick Frater
Thu, 12 May 2011, 05:59 AM (HKT)

Taiwan based sales agent Double Edge Entertainment (得藝國際媒體股份有限公司), scored early Cannes sales as it introduced a slate that includes three music-themed films.

The trio of titles are Spin Kid (電哪吒, pictured), Gangster Rock (混混天團) and MayDay 3DNA (3DNA: 五月天 3D 演唱會電影), a 3-D film which mixes real concert footage with fictional drama.

3DNA was sold on the first day of Cannes to Deltamac (得利影視股份有限公司) for Hong Kong and Galloping Horse (北京小馬奔騰影業有限公司) for Mainland China.

"We also have offers we are considering today from Australian and Korean companies, that's because there are Chinese audiences all over the world and this rock band is like The Beatles of today among Chinese aged 16 to 50," said Double Edge principal Steve Chicorel.

HK

3 days to HK...

Luggage's half packed. Excitement has yet to set in (rather shocking isn't it) Not looking forward to having to get up at 3 in the morning to catch the 4am to the airport.

It's been 2 years since my last trip - having skipped last year's DNA HK in favour of DNA US.

See you guys in HK

Kobron記者會

Update has been really slow this month =.=

So while I've been slacking off, Mayday have been busy with endorsement duties in China (for Kobron)
