Konsert 3 Diva

I heard about the concert a couple months ago but was not too interested simply because I have not heard of Titi DJ before and although I don’t mind Kris Dayanti, I much prefer Ruth whom I’ve watched live before. But a few days before the show I happened to catch them on Harith’s Thursday Nite Live and I was like, wow…not bad…not bad at all.

So at the last minute, I managed to get some tickets (haiyaa..comp lah..thanks to the ‘artist’ ha ha..) and off we went last nite. And boy, it was simply awesome…! Admittedly the sound system could use a lil tweaking but on the whole it was just great! The musical director, that Guttawa guy, man, he is something else. Musical arrangement was really fantastic.

The one thing I have to say is this – how come our artists need to dress the way they did? With the exception of Noryn Aziz (whom I’ve hardly heard of before), the other two could have dressed more tastefully. Indeed the Indonesian divas were a lot more sopan in their outfits throughout the nite. And with VIPs right up front, I thought Nurul especially should have not gelek-ed as hard, and in that dress pulak tu..! Why, after all that hip swaying she even got a comment from Kris, “cepat cepat kahwin lagi ye Nurul”.

Whatever it is, we had a blast! Among the highlights was when the 3 divas sang a medley of songs from Sheila (and Siti). Thoroughly enjoyed that – particularly the Sheila ones of course since they were songs I grew up with in my teenage years. Sheila was in the audience by the way, looking very pregnant. There was a string of VIPs in the audience too, and local celebs as well. Of course hubby said as good as the crowd was, nothing beats his experience attending a concert back when we were in the States. He and my brother went to a rock concert, and despite the significant loss of hearing they suffered from for days afterwards, claimed the concert was just out of this world.

Anyway, last nite was loads of fun. Great music, powerful vocals, wonderful song selection - in short, a great show, nothing less. I just wish our local singers can put up a show as exciting as that. And with modest sensible dressing, please..! Bikin malu daa..
