Just Sebastian (Ah Beng) Mini Concert

Finally the concert I've waited for quite a while has arrived.

My idol, Ah Beng Sebastian threw a mini concert at The Esplanade Recital Studio yesterday and today, 4 1-hour long concerts. It was very informal, nothing very elegantly 'dressed' and the concert was filled with his voice and the piano.

He began the concert with some chinese oldies that he said he grew up with, his mum favourites and followed by English and English of songs, some of them are broadway songs which i know nuts about....

It was free seating and we sat right on the front row and got so up close and personal with him. He's such an actor and there are certain parts during the entire hour that I burst out laughing. He was so cute !

The show supposed to end in an hour's time, however, he was encored out twice after the delibrate encore. His theatre friends from Dream Acamedy and Wild Rice were also present and thanks to his friends, he has to belt out 2 unprepared encore to satisfy the audience. His mum was present too.

The highlight is always when he sing hokkien songs that make the audience happy and hearty ! Probably he should go and record a hokkien album ! He may given get a Platinum record for his album sales ! Ha ha....

This was his very last song at the concert which he did unprepared without the piano. We all just clapped and sang along with him ! This is definitely a bonus ! Unless, his friends decided to show up for another round of support !

Braodway Beng is returning in May, watch out for the early bird sale ! You bet ! You are sure going to catch me there !
