Concert <3

When Ry and I got to The Stage we met up with our contest winners and gave them their ticket. Then we chilled outside the stage til they let us in. While waiting we saw one of our friends Darren Ashley who gave us two VIP tickets just cause he could. YAY.

View from above (VIP Section)

We went upstairs to the VIP section when they let us in and saw the band taking pictures with all the meet and greet winners. When they were done Tom and Danny went to have a cigarette at one of the tables close by to where we were standing, I dragged Ry up to them and ask Tom if he remember me telling him about a friend who is dying to meet him. He said of course and then I pointed to her and we talked for a bit before they had to leave. YAYAYAY.

I don't know how to explain how amazing the concert was, their
music is so fun Ry and i just had to leave the VIP zone to run and stand right in front of the stage. We enjoyed every second of the concert <3

After the concert the band had an autograph session which was like about 3 feet away from the crowd so we stood right in front. Danny, Tom and Jed all recognized me and Jed even talked to me while waiting for stuff to sign. We didn't get anything signed btw.

Before the signing, I tweet Danny asking him for his drumsticks but I was scared he didn't see it. He looked at me as he was walking away and I signaled him to come over. When he did he bent down to hugged me and I whispered to him that I wanted his drumstick. He told me to wait right here and he'll be back, then he left. He came back not more than 5 minutes later with a drumstick for me <3

We waited for them to leave so that Ry could get another polaroid of her hugging Tom which was absolutely adorable!

As Jed left I held his arm and said bye. He turned around and hugged me and said it was lovely to meet me. I love him, I love all of them.

Interview and shopping with Spector.

After a lot of complications and stess i finally reached KL at around 2.55 pm and rushed Topman in KLCC. When i got there i walked into the shop and right in front of me was the band shopping. I didn't freak out or anything, i think i've learned how not to freak out anymore. I called up my team mate and when he arrived at Topman we discussed what we were gonna do and all.

At around 4 pm the winner of the winner of the newspapers contest arrived and we started talking about the contest and how he won and if he was a fan and more stuff like that. Turns out most of them just took part to win the Topman vouchers and not because they were fans. I wasn't happy about it because if girls could have took part i would have forced Ry and take part and win and everything would have been wonderful but no.... oh well.

My interview with the band was fun, they were all really nice. Fred talked the most but all of them answered questions and i really enjoyed it. I asked them who they'd be if they could pick a character from any movie and i loved all their choices. Especially Tom for picking the Caterpillar in Bugs Life.

After the winner picked his clothes he went to try them on that's when i had the most chilled converstion with Jed. We talked about so many things from asam laksa to my band to the bands he's been in to if i wanna study journalism.

There's so much more i'd like to write about but i'm scared it'll bore you... I had fun, lots and lots of fun.

Kyle Patrick

2012-09-19T23:42:00.003+08:00

The last time i saw Kyle Patrick was when i was 14, he's been to KL about 8 times.. I feel like shit for only seeing him twice!

“I feel like I’m being welcomed home, just in general I’m always greeted with smiles and everyone is always so happy.” said Kyle <3

Ru Yuan and i talked about it over and over again about how we're such shitty fans for not going to meet him each time he's here in KL, one day when we were having that talk for the... 12345th time, he tweeted that he's coming back and i knew it was a sign!

Kyle is really down to earth, he's such a nice person. I felt so relaxed around him. Other than the fact that his height is slightly intimidating, i loved him and he was everything i ever imagined him to be.

I did write an article that will come out in The Star newspaper soon, will post the link up here when it's on!

I just have to upload this for everyone to see because its the cutest thing ever.

MY PICTURE WITH KYLE WILL BE UPLOADED SOON!

The Wanted 2012

2012-09-19T22:54:00.003+08:00

Everyone has heard The Wanted's song Chasing The Sun, it's been playing on the radio and on tv a lot recently. I've never actually taken the time to listen to any of The Wanted's music because after listening to them on the radio it wasn't really my kind of music, although i have to admit it is really catchy..

While my team was setting up their gear for the Kyle Patrick interview i got a call asking if i could attend the interview for The Wanted as well, how could i say no?

The Wanted boys were so fun during the interview i just love how they answer questions and bla bla. Love them, not really their music tho just them. They were really relax and i just really enjoyed listening to them talk and looking at them..

I also decided to show them my tongue thingy so that they wouldn't forget me. Max, Jay, Nathan and Tom all kinda jumped back a little in shock which was really cute.... Later on Nathan told me that he actually managed to do it once which was really cool! When i showed Siva he asked me my name and then call me Joanne the Clover. (love it.)

they're really really really nice people <3

Tay Jardine Interview

2012-06-03T23:16:00.004+08:00

how was the band formed?
erm we formed about 3 years ago kind of just on chance its was a studio project and we had 2 songs on the internet, on myspace. We were all in different bands and i don't know it just all came together like really fast and we decided to keep on moving.

Alright so where did the name WATIC come from?
er, we were originally just the in crowd and that name came from a childrens book that i had when i was younger and one day i had a yard sale at my house and i saw the book and i was like oh we should name the band that so we just went with it and kept it but we had to add the We Are because the name was copy writed by another band, so we just added it on there.

How would you describe your music?
erm well if nobody has ever heard our band before i'd say we're like a pop punk/ pop rock band and its just really fun music its music you could listen to pretty much anywhere!

What did it feel like when the band was contacted by Hopeless Records?
we were really excited i remember not believeing that it was true i remember being really excited, yea we were really stoked. we were all big fans of the record so it was so awesome.

alright so i've read online that you guys have opened for bands such as Hey Monday and Cartel, what does that feel like?
erm its awesome we became really good friends with all those bands so its cool its good to be on the road to people that you look up to and later on become good friends with. so its awesome!

so you're album is titled best intentions, where did the title come from?
erm Cameron our guitar player actually came up with that title and er basically the writing process and what we had gone throught int he last year, it just fit. we just tried everything with our best intentions. Alot of times its like being a teenager you go through growing pains and you learn things the hard way sometimes.

You know you guys are really famous in Malaysia, you're song Kiss Me Again is #1 on Fly fm's Fly30! what do you think about that?
yea i heard about that, its awesome. we're really excited. first of all we've never had a number 1 single ever so it makes us even more excited to come there and see the fans.

Does touring ever get boring?
noooo, never!

What's the best thing about touring?
i think probably just seeing new places and meeting new people, oh and trying new food!

does the band have any pre-show rituals?
oh erm not really i mean we do have our own little chant that we do and err, erm, erm it doesn't raelly make any sense other than that just warming up.

Have you ever been to asia before?
Yes we were actually in Singapore and Indonesia so we're really excited to come to Malaysia on this trip.

Have you ever heard anything about Malaysia?
erm actually i think the band that we toured with last time Oh Chentaku, i remember them telling me the fans are way crazier than in Indonesia and Singapore. they said that we shoud really be excited.

What do you think the future holds in store for we are the in crowd?
erm i'm not really sure, whatever happens we just kind of talk about it as like we just want to keep doing it until we're not happy anymore. as long as we're happy we wanna keep doing it.

Travis Clark interview 2012

2012-06-03T23:14:00.000+08:00

how was the band formed?
i went to go see my favourite band play then i went home and called my best friends and we just formed we the kings so we could get girlfriends because we were amazed at how cool Green Day and Blink 182 was and we thought that it would be a great start to get girlfriends.

Where did the name We the Kings come from?
the name we the kings comes from the name of our school when we were kids, it's called Kings middle school.

How would you describe your music?
fun and entertaining and positive and i think when alot of people listen to our music they feel like they're at a party or like they're in their car like a convertable or like with their windows down.

When did Charles Trippy start playing with the band?
he started playing about 8 months ago but i've been a friend of his since we were little kids.

How does it feel having a Youtuber in your band?
err, its awesome! its great that he can show everybody a different side of the band.

Where did the title Sunshine State of Mind come from?
erm the title came from, er well in Florida they call it the Sunshine state, and err we kinda wanted a CD title which reminded us of home.

What did it feel like when you won best punk pop artist in the 2008 rock on request awards?
That was awesome! that was our first award that we've ever won, its amazing to be submitted for awards like that.

Does touring ever get boring for you?
no it doesn't. sometimes it get exhausting and sometimes you miss home but its amazing to wake up in a different city everyday.

What's the best thing about touring?
i get to meet all the fans and i get to tell them how awesome they are and how much i appericiate how much they want our CD or came to our show.

Does the band have any pre-show rituals?
erm not really we all just try to listen to alot of music and get really pumped up before the show, we also have a chant that we do before we go on stage but nothing too crazy.

Have you ever been to asia before?
yes, we've been to the philipines and er we went to Jakarta in Indonesia we've been to Japan and all the time that we went there we loved it its absolutely incredible to be going there. we cannot wait to come back!

Are you excited to come to Malaysia?
yea i am, alot of people have contacted me on twitter and said how excited they are for the show and one of our songs sayylm is number 2 so that's very cool as well

What do you think the future holds in store for WTK?
i hope we'd be able to record more cds and continue touring to all the parts of the world we haven't been to yet and hopefully one day putting out a greatest hit record!

We The Kings and We Are The In Crowd

2012-05-30T11:22:00.001+08:00

Yesterday RuFu and I went for the WTK and WATIC press conference and we had so much fun, the bands are such freaks (which we love).

WATIC came in first and JayDee a radio DJ asked them a few questions (she was the emcee for the press conference).

Cameron Hurley's face, I just had to.

Both RuFu and haven't really listened to the bands before but we love their personalities and will probably go check out some of their songs soon.

We talked to WTK a little after, and RuFu took a picture with the band.

Both bands were extremely friendly. They came over to talk to us, making fun of us like we were old friends, even giving us hugs.

After the press conference WATIC went to the bar to have a few drinks and WTK had a few other interviews.

RuFu and I stayed to talk to them when they were done and after talking to them.........I LOVE THEM EVEN MORE.

6'4 Jordan Eckes talked to RuFu and I for a bit before he was swarmed by a group of fans.

RuFu videotaped the press conference, the videos will be at the bottom of the post.

RuFu is a huge fan of Charles Trippy ( Youtuber ) and was dying to meet him and when he walked into the room she froze and refused to walk up to him and say something to him, I had to tell him that she was shy and drag her to see him. He was really nice of course.

Check out his YouTube videos and see for yourself !

For those who do not know who Charles Trippy is, check out him out!

Internet Killed Television is a web series which documents the lives of Charles Trippy, his wife Alli and their dogs Zoey and Marley.
