"San Si Hang"

I'm not a person who like to simply waste money, or to be more realistic, I've already surpasses the age of wasting money! But still couldn't resist and keep updating my electrical properties!

Handphones, PDAs are just common, computers since 20 years ago until now, from PC to Mac, I could not remember how many units I've changed, and also the walkmen, CD players, VCD players, DVD players, and later MP3 players, iPod etc, not forgetting the Hi-Fi, Cameras, video cams…. My heart started to ache just thinking of them, but then again, just couldn't stop myself!

The new member is a Cannon EOS40D, so much fun! And the photos taken are really at good quality, or maybe I'll buy a far lens to take pictures of the paparazzi! Wah! Men can really give a lot of excuses!

I should be doing the last part tomorrow night, had finished the cover two days ago. I think the reporters would have prepared an entire list of weird questions to ask, I better think of some good ways to answer!

Lastly, I have to tell all my friends here, you don't have to congratulate me so soon!

"Lun Mo Gong, Jok Sei Chong Pat Ji Bin Goh Go"

Did a very "happy" show yesterday night!

"Chinese Kung Fu International Tournament" was held yesterday night at Shen Zhen's "Bao An" Stadium and a lot of "Mo Gong Goh Kiong ge Mo Lam Goh Sao" (very talented martial arts experts) also attended. I was lucky to be selected as one of the performing artists. I felt very proud and was very happy that I was able to meet with Mr. Kam Yong!

I was already a fan of Kam Yong when I was in school (which boy is not?). I have read all of his book, (The Legend of the Condor Heroes, The Return of the Condor Heroes, Heaven Sword and Dragon Sabre, The Book and the Sword), not only once, but so many times, and I was hoping that I'll be able to meet with the real hero. That's why when I knew that I would be able to be on the sama stage as him, I was so happy for the past few days.

I also brought the old novel that my dad passed on to me, hoping that I can get his signature on it. Right before I had to go on stage, this excitement moment arrived...

He's very friendly and gentle, shaking my hands warmly and agree to take photos with me and leave me his autograph, he also wrote...

Mr. Hacken Lee...
Old book, sweet memories; So Old yet so New
...Kam Yong at Shen Zhen

Really "Hoi Sam Sei"! Almost forgot what I was to sing!

36 Hours in San Francisco

0700, finally reached home!

This trip to San Francisco, the entire trip lasted just nice, 36 hours. The advantage is do not need to adjust to the time difference, taxied from HK on the 5th arriving at San Fran on their time 1400 of 5th, following with a press conference in the afternoon…

After the press conference, we visited the senior citizen's cottage. They are all very energetic and happy while welcoming me into their home. I sang “Kao Foon Yu Mong” without any music background. I believe this is the only song from my albums that they are familiar with!

After that, I went to a nearby mall to had a quick shop, bought some AF's T-shirts, approximately an hour later, I've returned to the hotel and ordered room service. I'll like to take this opportunity to apologize to the organizer because we had to miss the welcome dinner as everyone of us were way to exhausted.

In fact, this charity concert concentrated on fundraising and did not have a huge budget. Couldn't bring any dancer, soundman, even my band only had 7 members, my assistant, Terry has to do all the works, including contact, wardrobe, FM and was also needed to assist me in changing, was a real heavy job. As so, after the show began, there were no time for photo taking. As for the venue, there was also much room for improvement, we requested for 24 monitors, but were only given 13. As a result, everyone on stage was having difficult time hearing. And the house’s sound systems can also be better. My friend in San Francisco “it's not too clear”. Nevertheless, this didn't affect the ambience of the night. The fans in San Francisco were really warm! I was all ready for a 2nd encore, but some of the senior audience has started to leave, worrying that it would get to late! Maybe next time, we'll sing again!

The show began at 1930, and ended at 2200. It was the first time that I had to take my shower and leave immediately after a show, reached the airport lounge at 2330, sat down for a cup of instand noodles, 0120 taxied back to Hong Kong, just nice, a 36 hours trip.

Finally, have to thanks the workers at the home, thanks for your kindness, too bad that I can't stay longer!

Next Year's Concert

Manchester United won the night before last night. I was very happy. Therefore, i wore a black color Rooney's T-shirt to work yesterday! (That's how football's fans are, "Keng Dei Neng"!)

I've been meeting a few talented musicians lately, preparing for the concert in early next year, hoping that I am able to find suitable talents to play the songs, bringing more excitement to everyone. This concert may be the one closest to my ideal concert. The entire show will be focusing on music. It's the best if can get a band that has a lot of people, the talented Gurus for the selective instruments, a nice and clean stage, together with the special effects that can accompany the songs well (not the "Mo Mo Wai Wai" type), and sharing moments with audiences, with reputable invited guests etc. Easy to say, but I'll put in all my effort to accomplish the mission.

Remember, 2nd Day of CNY is the 1st show, Do come and support!

The Presidents Cup

First of all, I'll like to thank you all for leaving your comments! Looks like I really have to write more!

I was watching Presidents Cup these few days. It is a golf tournament that happened once every two years, American Team vs. International Team. Actually, to watch live golt tournament is really a difficult "entertainment". First of all, it's normally broadcast at night or even midnight, and will continue for 4 days in a row, few hours a day, to finish watching the entire game was really not an easy job!

As so, I'll normally record the entire game and thereafter, taking my own sweet time watching it. And I can skip the ads too, and also skip those boring segments, plus some fast forwards, to finish viewing it! (Actually i was only able to watch until Day 3, still haven't watch Day 4's segment yet, already forgot who is who!)

Opening Blog on Mid Autumn Festival Day

This is the first time i don't have to work on Mid-Autumn Festival. So, i've invited a group of friends to come to my house for a party. I was thinking of BBQ at first, but the weather wasn't stable, as so, we changed it to "PotLuck" where everybody brought a dish. "Ah Je" (Liza Wang) brought tasty grilled chicken, the BBQ Meat that Benny brought is better, Gigi brought "Tong Soi" (dessert), and the timing was just right. The one who offered the least, Poon Kar Tack, actually brought tea leaves!

It's been a while since i've had to work on music shows for a continuous 3 days. This week, i've continuously conducted for Jade Solid Gold, "Wai Yin" and "Kei Pun Fat" shows. No need to work today, that's why i was at home watching soccer, hoping that Manchester United would win, celebrating the opening of my new blog!

So remember, come and share more...

Come and See! Come and Talk!

Hacken's Own Blog

I set up this blog before i was informed that Hacken has got his own blog. As so, this has been set aside for awhile, until a friend who doesn't know how to read chinese commented that she wasn't able to read from Hacken's blog, as so, i thought, why not include the content of his blog here, so everyone, even those who doesn't know chinese are able to get the most updated info from him.
