yesterday night was fabulous!Went to watch lee ritenour n his touring band(patrice rushen,will kennedy,melvin davis)!!
After me and bro sat down,around 728,which the show starte around 734?i thought i heard a bunch of like little boys in their 20s saying why are there teens here,trying to act mature or something?ANYwaY lets not spoil the mood =)
Sorry its a yesterday's thing so i cant really explain it now with forceful turbulent of mood,but it was really great!Though his songs were all funky and such,they touched me alot,made me damm tearyyyy awww..thinking when i can be like him soon,so pro then tour around the world to play music,but i know its gonna be tough +)
Lee was great down to earth,everyone on the band got a fair share of solos in the performance,LOVED ALL OF THEM Patrice's cool keyboard,will kennedy's heart-pumping drummings and lastly melvin davis's funky sexy bassssss,yeaaa!!
thinking about them now stil made me feeling so touched,even as i typed,oh my im fcuking emo,and thats a good thing,haha.
And the best surprise is!!Kurt Elling a boring jazz singer came as special guest!And most surprise thing is,he not as boring as in youtube,maybe cuz of Lee's funky fusion genre,he was "forced" to sing funky.Did i also mention he's a good entertainer cumm crowd pleaser??He's vocals are dammm goood,can be low sexy and "full",and also high but pleasing to the ears.
Very entertaining part is he solo-ed with his voice!Using random words,he sing so in tune,and he almost everytime end with a high scream so fascinating that i think if he sang higher his voice would break!SCREAMO KING OF JAAZZ WORLD!!
And he won't allow lee to solo 1st cause he scared if he solo last he would be a puddle of mud under him haha,cant phrase it as funny as he did.
And after two songs,he left and during the last performance,which the band though since we were so desperate for them,they decided to give us "extra" song,RIO FUNK!!Kurt elling also went to sing with them.Amazing!HOPE THEY COME SINGAPORE AGAIN,I SURE SEEE
Alright,then after the magnificient concert,which lasted around 90mins,we went to sakae sushi to eat instead of newyork newyork,since its damn crowded,that's when i felt so hungry while waiting for food to be served,cuz the menu looked so nice!I ordered Salmon don and a sakae sushi set which i takeaway when i left 3 pieces of sushi,felt i shouldn stuff myself up too much =)
2nd longest blog post in two consecutive days,how crappy my life is!!haha
