Air Justin - Featuring /Sexy/ Race Wong!

I have another Shanghai blog or two to go, but let me jump in with a 'hot off the presses' blog from earlier tonight...

I had the chance to go to see Justin Lo's 'Air Justin 08' Concert at Hong Kong's Star Hall.  It was pretty fancy, check out these set pieces:

not quite as fancy as Hamasaki Ayumi's concert, but definitely the fanciest concert I've seen at Star Hall.  Justin is doing 7 shows over 7 nights (before going on to Guangzhou and Malaysia).

I've never seen or heard Justin's concerts before, he is actually a good live singer:

Unfortunately for me,  he did a lot of slow romantic cantonese ballads... not my favorite at all,  but he did have some rockin' out tunes too... 

...with a little help from the band:

oh snap,  thats Jun Kung on the drums!  Quite good!

Speaking of special guests,  there was another one who made her appearence by video screen:

ooh la la,  who is that leggy beauty?  Took me a second to realize its Race Wong!


A giantess!  She's like 7' tall! :-D

(click here to read her blog about filming this video sequence).



Towards the end of the show Justin had a guest singer come out and do a duet and a solo song.  I couldn't tell what his name was, or even really hear him sing, because of these annoying teenage super-fans next to me... they apparently came just for the guest guy (cause they left as soon as he finished).  They had the light up signs... blindingly bright:


thats not distracting at all! :-P

the problem was that they sang along with him at the top of their lungs...  luckily i wasn't sitting in front of them, otherwise I would have had to turn around and yell at them to STFU...

Anyway, Justin closed out with '男人'  (click for video):



which i recognized from youtube cause its the one where he sings about Jacky Cheung and Eason... (and keeps switching back and forth between mandarin and cantonese...)

Good job Justin!   Good concert!
