Arthur’s Day 2013 Concert Party @ Sepang International Circuit~


To most people when speaking of Sepang International Circuit, some keywords that cross their mind would probably be F1, car racing, motor sport, speed etc.. Well not for me, I’ve my own set of words which is even better XD.. Party, Beats, Music, mind blowing Rave--- That’s my kinda Sepang International Circuit ^^.. Been here a couple of times and in case you miss out my previous party post at this super circuit, check it out >Here: We Love Asia 2.0< and >Here: Heineken Thirst 2012<, believe me, it was AWESOME!!~~ b^^d 

Anyway back to the story--- Arthur’s Day 2013. In conjunction with the 5th annual global celebration ‘To Arthur’ this year, GUINNESS® MY has succeeded in kicking the celebration up a notch by throwing not only a Bigger, Better but definitely Bolder celebration. 3 outstanding international acts, 2 brand new stage, 1 venue with liberal space, overwhelming crowd, flow of music & beer all night~ That’s pretty much how it was at the main Arthur’s Day concert party finale.  :)

Sepang International Circuit, this time.. "To Arthur!!"~

Being a music addict which literally can’t live without music, I’m slightly particular when it comes to concert.. So as usual, lets put aside the sensational atmosphere which crowd singing out loud, screamed, laughed, clapped, jumped (which was pleasurable & fun but I'm sure there will be tons of posts describing it via all those media peps ^^) and shift the focus to the technical aspect of the event. Performance wise the concert party was great, surprisingly The All-American Rejects turn out to be the group with best live vocal, up close in the second is my all-time favourite song ‘Superman’s singer-songwriter Five for Fighting, and The wanted doesn’t fall far behind either, a boy band which sing 100 % live, that’s pretty impressive, a big had to all the performers. *Clap Clap* ^^

Five for Fighting kick starting the 1st of three international acts.

The overall concert party is great, and it would have been perfect if not for the setting which doesn’t quite lived up to my expectations.. Well don’t get me wrong, the air-conditioned Arthur’s lounge & open air Arthur’s bar are nice, the design of stage is great, unfortunately the lighting fixtures & sound came up short. A lack of program versatility would be the major drawn back for the lighting, and the idea of prolong sport light focusing on the same spot of crowd is unbearable.. As for the sound, not sure if it is because of the speakers positioning or inadequacy but somehow the audience area audio sounds way too soft with a surprisingly weak bass. Anyway running a live music event is a tough gig, so lets just hope that the FOH can be further improved for the next time. -______-

Jump-cut back to the concert scene: Extremely energetic The All-American Rejects rockin' the stage! And even that is still an understatement for the amount of energy these guys put up on the show.. Woo hooo~~

And even when your hope is gone Move along, move along just to make it through ~♪ ♫
