what the fuck

WHAT THE FUCK?

what's the bloody point of having dreams and then fulfilling them only to realise, they are incomplete?

what could possibly make it worse?

I went to TWO fuckin coldplay concerts and travelled INTERSTATE to catch them.

Happily ecstatic after my Melbourne concert for an awesome night.

Until i realised they sang TROUBLE in both Brisbane & Melbourne concerts on the days i wasnt there.

Coldplay performed in Brisbane for 2 days:

23 June (which is the one i went and they didnt sing TROUBLE)

24 June (which is the night they performed TROUBLE)

Coldplay performed in Melbourne for 3 days:
1 July (which is the one i went and they didnt sing TROUBLE)
2 July (which is the night they performed TROUBLE)
3 July (They even did a cover of CANT GET YOU OUT OF MY HEAD as a tribute to Kylie)

WHAT THE FUCK?

i spent no less than 500 bucks - concert tix, air tix, accomodation etc etc only to realise a dream incomplete.

You have no idea how devastated i was lor.

To top it up?????????????????????????????

COLDPLAY TWISTED LOGIC TOUR 2006

SINGAPORE 10 JULY.

They fuckin played TROUBLE lor.

why is it so important for me to hear TROUBLE live?

Cos its the FIRST song that made me fall in love with coldplay. Not Yellow. In fact, i hated Yellow when i first heard it. Which explains why i didnt go to the 2001 Parachutes tour that Coldplay did with Travis - top 10 on my regret list together with 2002's RHCP tour.

:-(

devastating things aside.
.........................................................

i've graduated and im still in OZ land cos i cant bear to leave.

But the most important reason is that im still here for a reason. TWO reasons to be exact.

Jason Mraz - Aug 1.

The Strokes - Aug 3.

and then 6 days later...................................

im coming home!!!

9 aug.

ciao everyone. see ya soon. :-)

dream fulfilled

what happens next when your dreams become fulfilled?

i am going through this stage in my life when the ONE thing that i really really wanna do has been done. TWICE somemore.

And im at a loss - not even at a crossroads where i dont know what to choose.

I guess the next best thing is to find another dream to look forward to.

-----------------------

Speaking of dreams, i finally met chris martin and his band.

For everyone's information - i bought their tickets last year i think September and has been holding on to it since then till a couple of days ago. 2 shows i went - Brisbane & Melbourne.

Im currently in melbourne - just finished their concert 2 days ago. And i feel like there is no purpose to stay in melbourne anymore cos its fuckin cold lah~

Brisbane's show was disappointing especially after i've been to the melbourne one.

Reasons why Brisbane 23 June 2006 sucks:
1) Crowd was a fuckin loser bunch.

i arrived at about 11am. 2 groups were there already: a older bunch and a younger bunch. the older bunch are a group of wannabes who befriended everybody.

the younger ones were so young ; one of them was born in FUCKING 1990. my god lah~ and they didnt wanna talk to anyone.

at 1pm: 2 guys came and were such losers.. fat and curly hair plus skinny and long hair. only justin timberlake can pull off curly hair. and apparently they call themselves musicians.

I LOVE musicians - and they're not. Apparently the curly hair loser started saying things like my friend is the best guitar player in the world blah blah blah.... 2 hours later TAT friend appeared with a guitar and he started strumming and singing.

OK LAH~ if i practiced a bit, i can also do it leh~

NGAK plays good guitar too and i wouldn call him the BEST guitar player....

wah liao - really lah.."losers" is an understatement when i described them.

all in all - i wasnt too impressed with the crowd and was damn disappointed that fellow coldplay fans are such losers.


2) No cameras were allowed. I fucking paid $120 AUD plus $20 in total for postage lah - so i jolly well wanna take as many photos and i think concert organisers shouldnt interfere. I sneaked in my camera as usual and had to steathily take photos of the band. Until the last part, i think the guards jus bochap liao lah - so i had no troubles but still.............. *sigh*





















------------------

then i flew to melbourne. the flight was delayed for 2 fuckin hours and i ended up having to pay $65 for cab fare to my friend, eugenia's place. ARRGH....

and i did my homework finding out how to get to ROD LAVER arena - the concert venue. i decided not to go too early cos melbourne is too cold and im sick. I fell sick after Coldplay brisbane with a terrible fever that keeps coming back and a throat infection and a flu.

so i took a train and walked and walked. and fell cos the floor is too slippery. arrgh but it was alright. there werent much people there when i arrived and i just started chatting with people.
They were alll so nice to me cos i was from brisbane.

I met SO SOO SOOOOO SOOOOOOOOOO many people that nite. People who came from another state - South Australia Adelaide to watch coldplay. When people heard i was from Brisbane, they were like: Did i hear correctly? You're from Brisbane? That is just so cool of you to do that... that was so brave of you. did u come alone? Oh u came alone! That is so cool.

Haha~ so many comments.

i even had people walk with me to the train station when it all ended. i felt so at home in melbourne compared to brisbane which just reiterates the fact that i belong to the cool bunch not a bunch of losers. muahaha~~






















BUT melbourne's ROD LAVER ARENA mgmt was damn disorganised and damn fucked up.

but they made it up by allowing cameras. there werent any security checks AT ALL.

Apparently we're all allowed to take photos. so i took not a plenty since i told myself im gonna enjoy myself at the concert that night.

the fact that we had the freedom to take photos was just amazing.



----------------------

coldplay did some of the exact same things as they did in brisbane and i thought it was chris' adrenalin and wasnt staged.

chris martin sound exactly like what i hear them on their CDs and their live mp3s. i love listening to LIVE performances and i constantly searched for LIVE performances of coldplay and downloads them.

chris martin's adrenalin was amazing.

he keeps jumping and running.

i will never forget what i've seen and heard.

However i was disappointed.

they didnt play TROUBLE - which had so much meaning to me cos Trouble was the first song that made me fall in love with coldplay - not yellow. i wished it was yellow cos they played yellow.

Well they played politik but was the 2nd song and i will never be able to hear politik live as the opening song as they did on their "A rush of blood to the head" tour.

WHY DIDNT I EVER MAKE IT TO A RUSH OF BLOOD TO THE HEAD TOUR?

im pretty sure they didnt come to singapore for that tour.

devastated devastated devastated.

now - i really wanna make it to the 10 July concert in singapore.

MY HOME GROUND LEH~~~

it'll be damn cool to hear coldplay say things about singapore during the concert and hear how they manipulate God Put a Smile Upon Your Face in singapore's context.

but then i figured - if i were to buy the general standing tickets (not that i can since they're all sold out) - i will have to camp 2 days in advance cos singapore is the land of kiasu people.

and the experience will be damn fucked up cos i fuckin cant stand singaporeans and their kiasuism. but at least its home ground.

i've seen two shows in australia. im contented :-)


So what's next?
