nothing like being in the presence of a guitar legend to make me realize how mediocre i am! but really, 2 hours of tommy emmanuel (live at DBS auditorium!) left me completely mesmerized and in total awe of this musical genius. and what better way to enjoy such captivating music than in the company of the girl i adore, whom i had somehow convinced to watch this concert with me way before i even dared to think that one day, i could hold her hand in mine.
was close to tears when he played "amazing grace". i'm sure everyone in the room must have felt an intense urge to stand up and sing -- i had to remind myself that this was a guitar concert, not a worship service! but i realized halfway through the hymn that there was really no need for any words -- it was almost as if the music in the air carried with it the whole essence of the song, and was singing straight into our hearts.
what a wonderful night. faye and jeremy, i hope for your sakes that Hong Kong was worth it, cos you totally missed out!
i really want guitar lessons. somebody teach me pls....
