Alesana Live in Singapore with Crossfaith
So Alesana Live in Singapore with Crossfaith is over.
I'm still reflecting what had actually happened.
Okay yes! I was INDEED stoned in awe ohmygoth, that I forgot to ask if they would be going for Soundwave Festival next year. Damn me.
I love all of them (Alesana and Crossfaith).
They are really affable, nice and polite, although Wei Shan said they don't look really friendly in the photos. Haha, BUT they were that friendly.
So I said to Patrick, "Hi Patrick! Can I take a photo with you and get your autograph?"
He replied, "Oh yes, absolutely!"
Pat: *Looked at the Alesana poster I made* Oh you made this? This is awesome. Haha, this is a really nice photo (of me)!
Tatsuya was VERY FRIENDLY. All smiley all the way.
Tatsuya: *Looked at the Crossfaith poster I made* Oh woah! You made this? Nice.
Hiroki: *Hiroki came in to take a look* Woah?!
Alex was genial!
Me: Hi Alex! Can I get your autograph?
Alex: Yes, sure! *signed*
Me: Happy Birthday, Alex!
Alex: *shaking my hand earnestly* Thank you so much!
And while taking a group photo together with everyone, I was standing right behind - blocked by all the talls. Shane was just beside me and he said "Do you want me to carry you?"
OHMYGOTH. I SHOULD HAVE SAID YES.
Nope, I was stoned in awe and the photographer was like, "Hey the girl behind, I can't see you."
So I said to Shane, "It's okay! :)" and moved to the front. FUUUUUUUU.
Kazuki was just very quiet, as usual, I supposed.
But he was head-banging so much on stage haha.
Dennis was insane, perfectly usual. Hahaha.

And I lost my voice because of all that screaming. It doesn't help that I developed a cough just the day before the concert. Thank god for Cheers at Scape and Nin Jiom Herbal Candy. I ate so many of it just before the concert and throughout the concert.
I screamed too much during Alesana's cos they performed so many songs including the ones from their old albums.
Very hyped. I woke up only after about 5 hours of sleep, and quickly, developed a fever yesterday.
I feel weak all over.

No offense, but I love bands so much as opposed to solo artistes/ pop artistes/ whatever.
No choreographed moves.
Everything that happened on stage, happened spontaneously.
You hear the screams, the loud drum beats; You see them jump, head-bang, throw random stuffs to the audience. Just like how they drink their water on stage; Shane drank his beer on stage.
I love seeing them swing their guitars/bass across their shoulders too.

I don't know man.
But I always have this image in my mind-
1. Individual artistes have elaborate costumes and they change/touch up their make up god knows how many umpteen times every gig.
2. They seem to favour the elevating stage which brings them from bottom to the actual stage.
LOLOLOL. Don't like.
Oh well, personal preference.
