when i was 17 or 18.. i worked part-time in a CD shop. it was the time when mayday released their first album and my colleague was playing the CD after we received it in the shop. the same year, i had a chance to watch them live at indoor stadium.
lo and behold! that was the beginning of the i-love-mayday spiral.
1st rows during autograph sessions, mini concerts.. most expensive tickets to every concert.. recording every tv appearances, even if it was just for 30 seconds.. going to the airport and hotel.. going to their supper places... anything you name, the fan-girl did. :)
their record company staff even regarded us as "第一排霸主"!
(but we are too old now to protect our fort, so 霸主 no more :( )
it is the spirit of the songs, encouraging us to carry on dreaming and loving, the wonderful lyrics and melodies, the extensive musical arrangements, the enormous talent, the hardwork they put into each & every song and performance and the very real personalities that i love so much about them.
throughout these years, i have always wanted to attend their concerts overseas (yes, singapore no-enough!). money and timing were always not on my side. however, this time, i had a short break from work which coincided with their hong kong concert. so there's no holding me back this time.
i went, conquered and loved every single minute of it. :)
and here's to more mayday-ified 10 years for me, the proud mayday fan-girl :)
