So sorry xnampak ur msg earlier, if not could have tried to help u get the tix

Do update on how things went please.

Nutcracker · 11-11-2010, 06:08 PM

Thanks guys for the help! It turned out pretty well and I managed to go!! IT WAS BLOODY GOOD, THE FLAMING LIPS!!!

On that night itself, some dude named Omar email-ed me about joining him and his friend for the road trip down to Singapore for the show (he must've gotten my email from the Junk website, and yes Miele I am ewoksoldier! Did you read my lame entry?

). So I replied that I'm in Singapore and asked him if he can be arsed to help a stranger and get me my tickets from Junk HQ, highlighting the fact that he can run away with them and that I can do nothing about it. In return, I'd treat him and his friend to supper after the show. He replied with a very sincere "yes"!

So this super-duper nice fella did get me my tickets at 10am SHARP thurs morning, and gave me a call right away to assure me that he's not running away with it! Such a nice fella right..

I brought my lucky friend along and we met Omar and his friend at Marina Bay Sands (it was their first time driving into Singapore and kudos to him for finding his way through this extremely confusing place) after work. I think he's the last human being of this kind (helpful, selfless, honest). I received my tickets and he said he'll take a smoke while my friend and I go look for something to eat (but we didn't in the end). Apparently there isn't a single fast-food restaurant in that bloody huge place. Not a big fan of fast-food but we needed to bite into something light just before the show, so we ended up with coke.

Then we went to the exhibition hall and there was a queue. Went to check out the merch stalls and I bought a tee. I loved it. We decided to join the queue but soon after, Omar came and called us to his BIG group of friends who came down from KL too, and they were near the front of the queue!! Then I spotted my colleague (who's a freelancer so I had no idea she was attending the show too) on the other side of the queue, where we were a minute ago and I did the right thing by passing along the good deed, so I pulled her to our huge group of cool people (apparently some of them are in a Malaysian band called Flocks, if i heard correctly... google isn't giving me any result so I must have heard wrongly then). Then it was 8pm and we were ushered into the hall and it was the beginning of a lot of surprises for me. That is all.

I'll post the pics soon! I believe this was the most fun I had in a concert. Wayne Coyne sure knows what he's doing.

weresodisco · 12-11-2010, 06:51 AM

That's so awesome Nut!! That Omar guy is sure as heck the nicest dude on the planet!

Can't wait for the pix!! Setlist?

Oooh did Wayne Coyne & co bring all those ridiculous props?

Edit: OK I checked some vids on you tube of the flaming lips SG gig - ha! indeed they brought all those props! wayne coyne came in by zorbing! that was surely an epic opening! woah!!

And more excerpts of Zorbing, a bear!, giant laser-emitting hands, lots of balloons and confetti!

Nutcracker · 12-11-2010, 05:56 PM

Yes Omar is my new friend. I still owe him supper cos the show ended at 12am and he thought it was late. He had to go back to JB to his aunt's place, then drive back up to KL on Friday to start work at 6pm!!! HARDCORE.

The setlist I can't remember in its entirety nor it's order, but it went something like this:

intro
Worm Mountain
Silver Trembling Hands
She Don't Use Jelly (!!!!)
The Sparrow Looks Up At The Machine
I Can Be a Frog (very fun interaction with the audience hahaha)
Yoshimi Battles The Pink Robots part 1 (gutted that they only played the acoustic version)
See The Leaves (i think)

encore
The Yeah Yeah Yeah Song ("i'm so happy")
Do You Realize (must end with this)

The pictures are on my facebook.

When I'm 49 I want to have hair like Wayne Coyne.

guilt-stricken · 19-11-2010, 05:58 PM

Glad you won tickets, and had fun at the Flaming Lips gig Nut!

Hope you guys are all excited about MGMT playing in March 2011!

Anyway, was watching this trailer from a new Johnny Depp/Angelina Jolie movie and all of a sudden bam! I hear Map of the Problematique

Movie's called The Tourist, looks like a pretty yawn-worthy plot but eh, I'm sure Johnny Depp (and Muse) will be able to change that

crazy_mary · 28-11-2010, 10:32 AM

Omar is the man! heh..

MGMT and Deftones!

but i'm waiting for Muse to announce their Asian tour.. hopefully it'll be soon.

Nutcracker · 29-11-2010, 02:57 PM

Thanks Liz! Sure was fun!

Wow I love that trailer, especially the end titles portion. I actually don't mind watching this movie.

Wow if MGMT were to perform in only KL in Feb, that would suck for me but I'd still want to watch them live!

Looks like Muse aren't taking a break yet early next year, with a South American tour in support of U2. That's in March, so that leaves "after Christmas" free for Asia, perhaps?

crazy_mary · 01-12-2010, 07:13 AM

if it's after Christmas, they would be making the announcement by now... i hope they don't forget about us!

Nutcracker · 02-12-2010, 07:42 AM

No mention of an Asian tour in this interview.

crazy_mary · 17-12-2010, 12:08 PM

nonoor · 18-12-2010, 05:47 AM

HELLO!

I'm sure they haven't forgotten us...

Oh, I heard USoE being played as the background music in National Geographic's Great Migrations commercial
