First comment, lousy emcee.. anti-climax emcee.. only impt thing she said was that Andoh is single and available.. hahaha.
2nd comment, Andoh was great, funkily dressed, charismatic, entertaining, great player. His pieces all had very climax climaxes (great registrations), very stirring melodies (the kind that touches your heart and does strange things to it), and some complicated bassline (the elec bass kind, where the guy has 4 strings and 5 fingers to play instead of 2 feet).. He loves to use the 2nd exp pedal, think sometimes he just kicks it for fun, cos in some parts he kicks it once every bar i don't hear any difference when he kicks it, but in "Septemeber", the chorus part, he stepped on that pedal fully and transposed his notes.. Saw his little secret, there was a MD player/ Flash player/ some player added to his Stagea on the empty space besides lower keyboard.. guess that's where all the talking voices in his pieces came from.
There was this orienta piece where he made the audience do actions during the chorus, we must have looked so funny. Haha. He's good lah, he can play and turn and cue the audience and signal to the emcee at the same time. Amazing. It's always good to watch a pro. And yah, don't think his movements were exaggerated..
He was selling his CDs, all 3 of them at the concert. $48 for 1. Ridiculous. I should have brought my MP3 player and recorded his concert!! How dumb of me. Anyway, I got his autograph on my non-pirated, i mean original, scores. His personal album, so when I asked him to sign, he went "Ooh!" like, wow you bought my book! haha..
That NTUC place has a great view, I'm sure if we were on a higher floor the view would be even better.. Company to the concert was good too =) We filled up their survey form and asked them to lower studio rental prices. Hahaha. Really, Yamaha ought to give ex-students the same benefits as the existing students. It sucks to be an ex-student now..
One fine day, i'll go try out the sound effects on stagea.. never knew so many existed..
