一場靠著意志力撐完的演唱會

Back by popular demand, hereby I present my humble shots taken during Cheer Chen's gala gig at The Singapore Indoor Stadium last Saturday(22nd Feb 2014). Was very lucky to have gotten row 1 seats through a friend. This was the first ever time that I could get to see goddess up close and personal- yes, I shook hands with her 4X and one of the longest was ~10sec during one of the encore song 還是會寂寞. Dont be angry or jealous with me, I tried to pull my hand off but she didnt let go(later a friend of mine explained that she probably was trying to hold onto my hand to maintain her balance up the narrow step on the other side of the barrier. It was a very heart warming and sincere gig put up by Cheer & Entourage at the Singapore Indoor Stadium. Despite being down with a heavy flu on thursday(almost at the verge of just calling the SG gig off), she still made it here to give all her best to the audience. Kudos to Cheer for being so on and professional.

All photos shot using the OLYMPUS OM-D E-M5 + Panasonic Lumix G X Vario 35-100mm F2.8. I did not want to lug my gigantic D800+70-200 to SIS(which I think I probably wont be able to get through the tight security). I hope those of you who likes and enjoy Cheer's music will love the photos. And apologies to be bombarding this sub-forum AGAIN with her photos. Enjoy and cheers!!!

Some highlights here while I am still slowly selecting out the good shots..

#1 昨晚的綺貞... 抱病上場.... 她告訴觀眾說她原本星期四就該隨大隊一起來到新加坡.. 但是早上起來後身體狀況還是很不好... 原本想打算取消演唱會, 但她還是來了.... 雖然ENCORE少唱了幾首歌, After 17也幾乎是大家幫忙唱完的... 謝謝綺貞的敬業.. 還願意來到新加坡當我們的太陽... 希望我們這些藥能儘快把你的感冒治好...

#5 She really looked very unwell and was struggling to put up her best. I was quite heartache while processing the photos from the first segment...

Photos from the trilogy segment. As I was too near and lazy to change lens, I did not shoot any wide angle stage display. Anyhow, the SG gig was short-changed too. The double ring structure above the stage did not revolve like what it should be during the Taipei Gig(which was quite wasted)and lighting effects were also not as good. Probably limtied by production budget and infrastructures.

#6 She was up on a wobbling 5m height during the prelude

#7 Looks scary...

#8 I like the visual effects

#9 This time, she brought the G&L for the song "Immortal"

#10 I felt that she was pushing very hard using her willpower to perform. We could hear her clearing her throat several times(mic very sensative) and her nose was kinda runny at some times

It wasnt easy to smuggle those big DSLRs in. So I brought my small m4/3 camera to test out the panasonic 35-100 f2.8 capabilities.. I am sold..

I did request.. but due to copyright control, they can only hire a full-time photographer for their events. so too bad.... but I think I rather enjoy the concert as an audience!

Thank you Kongo master. Quite sad that I didnt get to meet you that day as I was stuck outside waiting for a friend(he came at 8.10PM!).. Yeah the security was very tight but "I didnt bring any camera" lol.. our team did some homework to camouflage our equipments haha.. but the ushers were quite ok at our site(just ask us to be discreet and not so obvious).

I shall wrapped up this thread with a few more photos. More can be found on at my Flickr Album Thank you all for viewing....
