groupie-ness!

Haha! Hello people.
For your entertainment's sake, I shall recap the hilarious thing Li, Yanti & me (Aliya) did last Friday__Taufik Trailing! pics here: http://community.webshots.com/album/253078106KarfAI

Yup, we became Taufik groupies. It's quite fun, even though we're no diehard fans compared to those that turned up. So anyway, last Friday, we tried to tail him from location to location as he signed CD store posters in conjunction with his CD release.
First, we tried CDRama at orchard but by the time we turned up, it was chockful of people. Read: His fanclub people (mostly schoolgirls) and old ladies! Ok not old, but middle aged women with vidoecams, like me (videocam-wise, not age-wise). Anyway, Taufik was late, and so we decided to go to Gramaphone at Paragon, his 2nd location. We waited and waited and he arrived. And the pushing began. And the screams. Not us screaming, of course. But it was really kinda pointless, on hindsight because all he did was walk in, sign the poster and walk out. Less than 5 minutes! Cheat our feelings. Haha, I took many shots on my 10x zoom camera but I can't upload the video because it's on tape and I don't have the firecable or wtver to transfer the video on the tape to the comp.
Anywya, we ran to HMV after that but we couldn't see him! It was too full! So we rushed to Carrefour Suntec, his last location where we waited for over an hour for him. We got a really good spot near the front corner hehe. Yanti got to touch him! (groper groupie!) Anyway, he came (late as usual) and signed more things. It was very funny, because you can cuss in public and no one cares. Heh. I screamed out :What the hell?! Stop pushing you f***tards! And no one heard! Except the videocam. Oops. But it was that noisy. And all the pushing.
Anyway, after Taufik left apparently there was a stampede which resulted in fainting(??), sprained ankles & crying...yes...crying. So stupid.

Haha, so there you go. Being a groupie is fun and tiring.
So there was my Friday with Li & Yanti. Cheap thrills. Hehe. If only a really good band came, I'd be more than delighted to be a groupie again... Not for now...

Oh wait a minute, anyone going for the SMU patron's day? Taufik & Sly will be there........
