4th March 2014, Kedah – A
few days ago, our team from wljack.com & loong-updates.blogspot.com were given a chance to
attend a very grand musical event in Sungai Petani, Kedah. In fact, it is the
first time for such a massive musical festival to be held in Kedah. We were
very delighted because the event was really fun and exciting! The crowd was also
huge!
First Grand Music Event in Kedah!
First Grand Music Event in Kedah!
As
mentioned in my previous post, Planet
EUPE Music Fest is a major effort by EUPE
Corporation Berhad to kick-start Kedah to be recognized as a venue for
world-class entertainment. The result turned out to be a success as it has been
a smooth event with a great number of audiences (approximately 15,000 people) from
different parts of Malaysia.
Star-studded night with non-stop
entertainment!
The
line-ups for the show were spectacular as it involved Mandopop superstar Wang Lee Hom, Malaysian singer-songwriter Yuna,
popular South Korean K-Pop boy band, U-KISS and Taiwanese electro-pop sensation, Jeannie Hsieh. Sharing the same stage with these awesome Internationally-prominent artistes were
Malaysian finals of the 2014 Hip Hop
International Dance Championship, Najwa Latif, Da Monster, Kah Jun 凌加峻,
Orange 陈慧恬, Mint G and the finalists of The Ultimate Song 非常好歌 (符俊贤,邝暄恒 and 郭修彧) .
There
were at least 40 songs performed by the artistes and every single moment was
definitely worth the affordable ticket price of the show! The event started at
around 7pm with the first song performed by the finalists of The Ultimate Song 非常好歌.
Awesome Dances To Heat Up The Crowd!
Apart
from just singing performances, the audience were also given the opportunity to
witness the LIVE show of great dances from Hip
Hop International Dance Championship. The teams that were involved during
the show include Katoon Network (will be
representing Malaysia to Las Vegas for Hip Hop international Competition) ,
Zeppo Youngster and etc. All of their dance performances were able to heat up the crowd!
Malaysia Artistes Performances Keep The
Audience Entertained!
A
few Malaysian Artistes have also taken part in this Music Fest. They have also
kept the audience entertained throughout the event with their wonderful vocals!
Kah
Jun 凌加峻 has performed some of his songs such as ”我要去旅行”, “My Love” and etc. While Da MonSter sang a Medley. Orange 陈慧恬 on the other hand has sang one of the
OST from 8TV “一块二的幸福”. She also performed
alongside with MayMay for “掉了”! Najwa Latif who is an
18 years old talented singer from Sungai Petani has also performed 3 songs on
the stage of Planet Eupe Music Fest!
Another notable mention is the comedic
hosting by KK Wong who dressed up
like a woman calling herself Datin. He wore a pair of high heels and sang a
very funny song. This part of show has brought a lot of laughter to the
audience.
The
International Artistes’ Peformances! Yuna delivered a mesmerizing moment to the
audience!
Besides the great line-ups of talented
Malaysian acts, the show also featured a few international acts which have
brought the fans to another level of excitement! First, it’s Yuna, our Malaysia singer from Sungai
Petani who has marked her name in western music industry. She has delivered a
very solid singing performance to the audience! It’s so great to see her performing
the song “Rescue” Live on stage!
谢金燕
Jeannie Liven Up The Crowd with Her Energetic Dance and Catchy Tunes!
Besides Yuna, we were also greeted with the
great performance from Taiwanese谢金燕 Jeannie who was famous for her 跳针舞 in the song “姐姐”! Her performance was one of the peak moments during the whole show!
Before she appeared on stage, there was a
video introducing about her. Many fans were screaming as they saw the video
about her and the scream got louder as she appeared right in front of all us!
She addressed the audience as “亲” (refer the crowd as dearly ones) and greeted us with English! She has totally made the crowd gone wild!
U-Kiss Kpop Moment! Fans Interaction On
Stage!
This
event is definitely a great music fest with a variety of flavor! Besides strong
vocals, energetic dancing moments, the audiences also have the chance to
experience Kpop in this show!
As U-Kiss appeared on stage, they greeted
the fans with Bahasa Malaysia, “Apa
Khabar?” “Saya Cinta Malaysia” and etc. This session gave the audience a
chance to experience something similar to those Kpop showcases which happened in KL in the recent years.
Besides
performing their songs on stage, they also have a fans interaction session on
stage. 5 lucky winners from a
competition were given a chance to go on stage to play the musical chair games
with U-kiss! All of them were
excited and in joy as they got the chance to interact at such a close distance
with their idols. They got autographed posters and the winner of the game
obtained the Grand Prize, which was the group hugs from U-kiss!
Nevertheless,
their singing and dancing performance were quite nice and entertaining too!
The Best Act Came As The Finale For The
Planet EUPE Fest! LeeHom王力宏 Rocked The Show To The Max!
Last
but not least, the best part of the show was during Lee Hom’s performance! It’s definitely undeniable that everyone
among the crowd was highly anticipating for his appearance!
As
he came on stage, the magnitude of the screams, shouts and applauses were the
greatest throughout the night! Many audiences even stood up and rushed nearer
to the stage to catch a closer glimpse of their favourite Mandopop Idol!
Lee Hom has
done a great fan-servicing in his performance as he inserted “Malaysia” into his lyrics and also
used various languages to say “I Love
You” during his song, “放开你的心”
including
English, Mandarin, Japanese, Korean, French, Hokkien and etc!
All
of the fans were very excited and happy to witness Lee Hom’s performance LIVE!
Review Of The Show! One Word: AWESOME!
It
was the first time for a music fest with such a grand scale to be organized at Sungai Petani, Kedah! I am sure all the
audience would really appreciate the effort by the organizers of the Planet EUPE Music Fest! Even our team
felt very amazed by the show provided.
Who
doesn’t like a show with Powerful dance
performance, Performance by talented Malaysian singers blended with
International Acts (Western style, Dancing and Hot style, Kpop style and
Mandopop Legend), Punctuality of event, Nice Venue Layout and etc? These
are all elements which made the show a very great one!
