It all started when i was called by a friend Alicia. Her sms goes " Steve Aoki is in town..Friday Zouk? " I was kinda reluctant. For me i am not actually a big fan of DJs and never really take note of them. I actually never heard his song (i'm ulu man) before but heard his name quite often. It is one of those name that leave a mark in you brain. "Steve Aoki" is a cool name. If any guy have a name like that i'm sure girls will be lining up to date you
(not guaranteed if u look horrid)
Anyway i agreed to go because i have else to do in Singapore. I take it's better then me staying at home, being a nerd and making love with my PS3. So on that day we decided after work we met up at ION and then move to Zouk. We met up at 9.45ish and in hope to get a cab to Zouk. OMG we are uneducated in the Singapore's ways. The que for the cab was dam long. Even after looking around orchard to look for a place to get a cab with out waiting, everywhere is the same old long Que for a taxi. Actually i am fine waiting and reaching zouk later( it 10 am only and zouk about 5 minutes away by taxi) but Alicia is a die hard fan of Steve. Her idea was is to go early beat the que at zouk entrance and go the most front of the stage to see Steve up close and personal. Due to her die hardness , we were dying to get there quicky. Then Alicia came up with some thing entirely new to me. " Hey why don't we just follow the crowd. I'm sure those guys (referring to some ppl we spotted who is dress to go clubbing) are going Zouk as well" We followed them to a bus stop near by. According to Alicia said she took a bus before to zouk from that bus stop .WTF this is the first time i heard of taking a bus to a club. Forgive me, but in Malaysia it usually cab, own car or hitchhike a friends car. A bus it unheard of.
It was this empty when we reach.
Alicia purposely wore a DIM MAK t-shirt in high hopes that Steve would notice would notice her. She was like auntie-ing to me "You know you can't buy this here you know. Have to order online" And "Tisk See.... i'm a big fan of Steve Aoki!" . LOL turns out we saw a lot of ppl wearing the brand.
The watch you see above it kinda cool. it doesn't show any numbers at all. it just show some colorful line of some sort. She can actually can see what time is it. I'm daze every time i ask her the time. She just press it, see the lines and tell me the time. I couldn't understand it at all.
Both of us thought that Steve would start his gig at 12. Around 1230 zouk was packed to the brim. It reminded me of emporium last time. It was f*****g pack. He came out at around 0130. F*****g late but who cares. When he came out he ROCKED ZOUK so hard. The only word i could think of to describe it is INSANE!!
Enjoy the pictures:-
Before He came out.
DIM MAK!!
In this picture he does a bit like his sister , Devon Aoki.
The man
And His Fans
Zouk That Night.
It was hard to get a good photo or video that night as i am a noob at photography and don't have a wicked DSLR to shot. Most of my shot turned out shitty . My video was too short like less then a minute.
Below is a video which i found of Youtube of that night courtesy of Shananification. I have a video but the below is so much more awesome
His showmanship was fantastic. The music was insane. I was just blowed away=)
My limited vocabulary have no idea how much more to describe it .
Above is a pic of a random happening uncle that got the balls to just come up on stage and dance. Even girls don't get to dance on the stage. Security will usually just screw them away but not this uncle. Eh, Zouk security is not to be trifled with. If a fight were to break out in the dance floor. With in seconds(yes seconds) the bouncer will grab him and drag his sorry ass away. I saw it happen a few times during Steve's gig. LOL. Anyway this uncle deserve his glory. Below is a video of that random uncle.
Anyway it was an awesome night. I definitely walk away from Zouk that night a big fan of Steve Aoki and can't wait to see his next show if he come down to Singapore. What can i say
I AM A STEVE AOKI FAN !!
