"Excuse me, what is the secret to your soul?"

I started to listen to The Cat Empire last year when I was in AI and Mr. Arthur Josephson started to walk with a box on his head and was listening to this unique music. Since then the Chariot is on my mp3 player and I often listen their albums when I work or I need to chill and have some fun.

So they kind of became one of my favourite foreign bands, lining up with U2, Coldplay, R.E.M., etc... I have never thought that I will have the chance to see these guys in concert. And here they are, in Singapore, having 3 concerts for free :):):):) They are just starting their 2006 world tour and have 3 warm up shows at the Esplanade open theatre in Singapore.


This is a fantastic view with the concert scene and the financial district of Singapore:The concert itself was just amazing. It is a 3 hour show with breaks, but it is a huge party. These guys really know how to engage the public and make everybody to sing an jump. Even the not that expressive Singaporeans stood up and were screaming and yelling. And at the end of the concert everybody wanted them back, which is not that usual in Singapore.

Put your hands up in the air and shout "Hello, hello :)":
It is the best show ever in Singapore and I am really looking forward to be there in the first rows again tonight. Now these guys really put the standards high, so I have high expectations from Coldplay as well :):):).

We are just enjoying it :) "Excuse me, what is the secret to your soul?

Slowly, slowly Singapore is becoming a hub not just for business but for culture, music and entertainment. These guys from the government started to focus on this and I am confident that in 3 years it will be just as good as any European cultural hub :)
