THE SINGAPORE REPORT
Day One
by Chaz Dabat Kkoshi , February 2000
My god give me a knife so I can cut the dense atmosphere
that is causing my lungs to work overtime, I said to my self
as I came out the Singapore terminal. Please guide me to some
aircon, was my first sentence to my comrades as others stood
outside the terminal to light a cigarette and others rushed
for their luggage.
Hooray, another tour has begun, another itinerary, another
load of luggage, another adventure, another hotel and oh yes,
another opportunity to unpack and pack in the same day, and
most important a chance to meet more of you dedicated fans.
Wow as soon as we got on the coach some lovely reps including
wee lee introduce themselves in the manor of a Disney type
rep smiling and being over nice to everyone.
They were great and I thank them now again for their hospitality.
What a lovely clean city Singapore is, being a Singapore
virgin I did not know what to expect. The hotel is beautiful,
the people are lovely, and to top it all the gig was great.
I specially liked the warm up act, two funny guys one running
around in the audience, the other on stage, the guy on stage
calls out, any girl with red underwear bring it here and you
can sit in the front row. Wow Singapore is coolomoundo.
For our first gig it was a stonker, thank you Singapore I
wish we could stay longer. Well off to the hotel salsa bar
for a dance.
We have a great meal planned for us tonight. I sit opposite
George and his face drops to the ground when a gala of meat
dishes is set before us. Urggghhh George says. John Themis
and I are jumping with joy as this feast is set before us.
Ian the tour manager says - can you bring some bread and cheese
for George. Ha ha sorry G,
Can't believe my eyes later when in the hotel is a salsa
club in Singapore? They have a live 3 piece band and its not
long before e richie gets on the drums Kevan on the bass ,
and Linda grabs the mic and we get a larger than life full
mix version of I will survive……
Off to bed at 3am and up for 6am for the land of Oz.
