Beijing....one night in beijing..... And what a night it was!
It's always nice to be in China as far as i'm concerned.
I don't know...it just the sheer size of the country and the population.
And this show that was held in the city's biggest stadium,
was the biggest pop event this year.
The estimate count of the crowd stands at 60,000. It was a sight....believe me.
Oh..in case I forget, the amount of policemen in the venue was
estimated to be around 4000 strong (A well disciplined lot).
The party atmosphere was missing as the crowd were very well behaved,
maybe a little bit too well behaved.
Can't blame them though as the authorities were very vary
especially after the fullong or whatchamacallit cult affair.
But what takes the cake was that we have to walk in in twos to the stage!
even us musicians! hehehehhe that was really funny to us.....but not to them!
It was a unforgettable night for all of us....
and I hope that it was the same with the 60,000 fans that came to the concert.
Thank you Beijing!.
