Best. Gig (in singapore). Ever.

a couple more pics can be viewed over at me new flickr site (thanks for the suggestion, chong). these are the pick of the crop though =)

undoubtedly though, the surprise of the night came when alex kapranos invited everyone at the concert over to their hotel, so we all could hang out with them in the foyer. and as you can see from the following pics, we were able to get oh, fairly close to them:

oh he's the one with the beard, btw.

you've gotta give it to them... it's really refreshing to meet a band -a world-class supergroup at the top of their game, no less- who have no qualms about walking un-chaperoned around a hotel lobby, mingling with fans and gamely signing autographs, taking pictures, and even talking on the phone with friends of those who couldn't be there. truly an excellent way to top off what was already an outstanding gig.
ich heisse super fantastische!

and oh Y E S... OASIS play here in a week YAYYAYYAY. not to mention kings of convenience a couple of weeks after that. :excited:
