The minute I found out that Secondhand Serenade was coming to KL, I immediately went to get tickets. The truth is that I only really knew one of their songs, the most famous one “Fall for you”. But that song was a song that I always listened to two years ago when I first started going out with Shorty. The whole song’s meaning didn’t exactly fit into our situation of courtship but just one line did “A girl like you is impossible to find”… and I thought then that it was exactly how I felt about Shorty.
That’s of course how I feel about her now still.
It was a small concert held in Bentley Music Auditorium at the Curve.
The crowd though was the most responsive crowd I had ever seen. No joke! It’s amazing. Talk about being their biggest fans. For every song that Secondhand Serenade sang, the entire crowd seemed to know the words and they ALL sang along. What a crowd.
While I was enjoying the show though I realized that Shorty couldn’t see much from where she was standing.
This is exactly the view of the stage from her eye level.
The poor girl couldn’t see the stage at all. Not even a bit and that’s how it’s like for any “standing” concert. So I got Shorty to hop on to my back and she watched it over my shoulder.
So I took her for a little ride!
I gotta say the lead singer, John Vesely is amazing. Gotta love his voice…
I managed to take a short video of him performing “Fall for you” at the end. He didn’t even have to sing… everyone else in the concert was doing the singing for him. Watch it to get a feel of how the atmosphere was there that night.
It was great.
Love them love them! Learned about their other songs at the concert and they’re all good too. I can’t believe I nearly missed it just because I didn’t hear about it anywhere. I’m surprised they didn’t market it any harder than they did.
Guess who the main sponsor for Secondhand Serenade in KL was though…. you won’t guess it. Kayu Nasi Kandar. HAHA!
