SURFING WITH THE DRUMS!



Post by: Rachel Ong




Surfing the night can't get any better especially when you're chilling with three pop cuties under the starry-lighted stage at St. James Power Station! The New York hipster trio psyched us up with their early appearance and began the show by playing their thrilling new track, What You Were
.
The stirring display of their knock-out show satiated my pre-Vesak day holiday spirit, even after a long day at work, my mood was instantly lifted up! The indie pop band spent a good 40 minutes just prancing around the scene as vocalist, Jonathan Pierce, tuned us into their trippy light tracks from their successful studio album like Book of Stories, Best Friend, and Forever and Ever Amen.

I was a little sore for being out of touch within the mosh area but I decided to make the best out of it with the complimentary drinks and sync my mind and body by bopping to the bubbly and surreal sounds by the nearest bar stand.

Just when they were ending their short and sweet performance, The Drums was determined to charm the audience one last time with their encore performance of Skippin Town, Down By The Water (the crowd's favourite lullaby) , and The Future!

They could have ended it with a nice supper with me actually...

ITS THRILLER NIGHT



Post by: Pearlyn 




After years of successful shows across the UK and Europe, the Grand Theatre at Marina Bay Sands is proud to be the first venue in Asia to welcome.. Thriller Live! And lucky us, we had a front-row view of this spectacular presentation.

A tribute to the undisputed King of Pop,



the show features the popular songs that have made Michael Jackson one of the world’s most prominent pop icons today. Featuring tunes from his 40-year career, we were blown away by the breath-taking performances of songs that include Can You Feel It, Smooth Criminal, Dirty Diana, Beat It, Billie Jean, and many many more!





The extremely talented cast definitely did not let the legendary Jackson down. It was certainly a world-class production with their electrifying dance steps and jaw-dropping vocals. The show opened up with songs by the Jackson 5 and gradually took us through the rest of Michael Jackson’s music career. By the end of the show, the entire theatre was up on their feet grooving to our favourite Jackson melodies!

Whether you’re a fan of Michael Jackson’s sensational moonwalk, or his amazing songs, we know for sure that Thriller Live will not disappoint you!

Here are a few pictures of the event!






and I'll end off with a huge fan of Michael Jackson kicking me a pose!
