Many special thanks to Red Bull for the passes and Ann for making it all happen!

When Cassy and I heard that Red Bull was involved in the Ting Tings concert last December, we immediately requested to be put on shift for the night in hopes that we would be able to attend the concert as well. To my dismay, I found out that we weren't going to be stationed at the concert venue but somewhere nearby to target concert goers! Imagine my disappointment when I saw the sampling brief! Nonetheless, I did promise to work for the night so oh wells,work it is.

Being responsible and stuff did pay off cos Ann called the next day (this morning) and said that she managed to get tickets/passes to the concert for us!! Since Red Bull was going to be sold at the concert, we were instructed to only "sample" (distributing Red Bull cans as samples) the performers, organisers and helpers - thus the need for the backstage passes! So what's better than a normal concert ticket/pass? A Backstage Pass of course!!!! o(>3<)o

Sound checks and stage preparation. Check out our HUGE Red Bull tentage! Man I feel like bringing back all the guitars and the drums. >_<

They even had a Red Bull mini fridge on stage where we filled them up with lots of Red Bull!

Cass N. and I with one of the sound crew. "Red Bull gives you wings!!" =D

The super long queue of fans waiting to enter

The crowd inside started out a little small as we were leaving to meet Ann and Pearl for dinner but the place filled up by the time we got back and the crowd was rockin'!! You could hear people chanting "Ting Tings! Ting Tings!" non-stop, all eager for the Ting Tings to come onstage. Finally, at around 10pm, when they finally came on, the crowd went wild!! Wow. The crowd, I tell you, was amazing! They were all so lively and enthusiastic!

And the Ting Tings? omg mind blowing can!!!!! They were sooo good and Katie did a good job interacting with the crowd! They really did liven the whole place up!

Although different from the last concert I went to (Linkin Park - lots of moshing, headbanging & screaming. AWESOME!) in terms of genre, crowd and atmosphere (?), it was really alot of fun as well! I enjoyed myself tremendously and I think I actually do like the whole open air concert concept! Its relaxing, not as crowded and there is definitely more room to dance away!!

At the entrance

Pearl, Ann, Cassy and myself all pumped up for the concert!

After the Ting Tings did their last encore song, Cassy and I rushed backstage to make sure we were there to offer them a can of Red Bull each and also to take a photo with them! XD They were really very nice and I would say we were really very lucky to have been able to meet them in person.


Haha and I think I can now die of happiness.

TADAH!!!

Jules de Martino and Katie White with Cassy & Me!! woot!! ♥♥

I love Red Bull!!!
