Roger Wang and friends (local Sabahan artistes) are performing for a fundraising concert in aid of Maktab Nasional Learning Center. I'm so honoured to be a part of the main organising committee, and more honoured to be at a "priceless" place where I see them right in front of me!! Of course, there's the duty part, but I thoroughly enjoyed being there and meeting friends whom I've not seen for a while.
Words can't describe how much all these meant for me... Show you some photos which I took during the concert. Sorry about the clarity of the photos, no flash allowed during the performance!
Apologies to those whom I had to stop them from bringing their food in, or from coming into the hall during the performances. Some were unhappy with the fact that I stopped them by repetitively saying "This is too much, this is too much", but nobody asked them to be late too...
Here's the crowd in Sabah Trade Center's MINI THEATER... By the end of the night, it was like 90% full, and tickets were practically sold out (3 more tickets left).
We started off with Roger's band performance, and then Annabel Tiu, the cellist, joined him on the stage to give an awesome performance!
Next in line was Eloise Lau who sang two songs. I like the passionate "BURN" she composed in the bathroom. Lovely performance from a young star~
Here's a picture of Daniel Mojina and part of the band. Nice music, guys!
Not forgetting Hezekiah Ansim who partnered with Roger Wang to play traditional musical instruments... Lovely, touching worship music!
JADE Sisters performed their single: JANJI (Promise), a Malay song. I can't describe the emotion, but it's as sweet as chocolate!
Ahh... My kawan, Jonathan Tse, performing "Somebody's Watching" and "I'm Alive". Both songs are from his latest album "I'm Alive".
Last but not least, we have Angeline Perete performing. Very upbeat dance music, strong vocal! Is it samba music? Maybe... Together in this performance was Teddy Chin Jr. on saxaphone.
This is the finale, where MN students joined the artistes to sing two songs. I managed to snap a photo and had to leave to "membuka kedai" outside.
I actually missed out a snapshot of the lovely tap dance performance by Christopher Liew... I shall take one in the next show. Very soulful, I'd say.
There are only two shows, one was just now. Another will be in about 13 hours' time, at 2pm of 7th May 2011 in Mini Theater, Sabah Trade Center. Definitely a once-in-a-lifetime experience for me. And I hope it will be for you, if you are coming tomorrow to check us out! Tickets are selling at RM50 and RM80.
Hereby I wish to extend my gratitude to Roger and his friends who put in so much of effort to make this concert possible! May God bless your future undertakings.
