When Greatness Collide

Now i understand why MTV decided to forgo MAA for World Stage because if you were at the event, you would know how wicked it was!





Not only did Karen and I get free mosh pit tickets (last year's humiliation at the MAA audition paid off big time), we were pretty near the stage and we also bumped into the Rejects at Sunway Pyramid! Dang it! Why wasn't i this lucky when the Backstreet Boys were in town? So yeah, we asked for a photo with this fella...

...whom i later found out is Mike, AAR's guitarist. Stupid Malaysian bodyguard didn't allow us to do so or else i would now have a picture to stare at before i go to sleep. Why are most Mikes so insanely hot?

So anyhoo, i realised that all World Stage reviews start with Estranged's performance. Actually, they were not the first to hit the stage. It was some Malay dude who i'm guessing is a product of one of those reality singing competitions. That fella so ter-rer he even threw his bracelet to the crowd. Wonder if anyone kept it?

During Pixie Lott's performance of Mama Do, she did the famous clap from her videoclip but nobody knew what was going on. Heck, i think only Karen and I took note of it and joined in. Whatlah these people. It would have been awesome to see the entire crowd clapping together.



One of the best highlights for me was Hoobastank and their rock/electric version of Ghostbusters. So super awesome it got everyone singing along. And The Reason made me melt! I can't believe i'm only discovering 'em now! Karen met 'em and got their autograph during their trip here years ago. Jealous nyer.



Ladies and gentlemen, i am now officially an All-American Rejects convert. Tyson is one wacky freakshow that i cannot take my eyes off. Go watch his videos at the Reject's site. I'm hooked. He came out with blue glitter all over his arms and body and even climbed up the side railing! He's weird in an awesome way.



Found out that Digi is throwing an All American Rejects live in KL concert on October 10. Nothing is confirmed yet but lets hope it comes through. I want more dose of Tyson craziness, Mike hotness and AAR hits. This time, i'll go prepared with songs to sing-a-long to.

If you want in on the fun too, catch MTV World Stage on MTV (Channel 713) on August 28, Friday at 9pm. Spot Karen and I!

And oh, in case someone decides to sue me, all photos are all from MTV Asia.
