Remarks

For Leslie's World Passion Tour, I have attended four shows in HongKong and one show in Toronto.

For the shows in HongKong, I got tickets on the ground floor for three nights (01 Aug, 02 Aug, 10 Aug) and upstairs on 03 Aug.   That was good as it gave me a chance to see the concert at different angles and distances.   I was sitting right in the centre on 02 Aug and 10 Aug.  And I could see Leslie very clearly!

For the show in Toronto, I was lucky enough to have a ticket in the first row!   The person who sold the ticket suggested that I could present gifts to Leslie.   And I did!    That was the first time I presented a gift in a live concert!   And it was an exciting experience.   I have bought Leslie a monkey as he was born in the year of monkey.

Following are the photos taken by myself in the concerts.   One of them showed Leslie holding the monkey that I have bought for him!

Remarks (Leslie Passion Tour 2001 - Grand Finale)

 

Leslie's Passion Tour 2001 Grand Final is an event that I will never forget. His singing, performance, the music, lights, stage settings etc etc, all were so perfectly done.  This time, the atmosphere was even better than last time in Aug in Hong Kong. I noticed there were many overseas fans, mainly from Japan and Shanghai. They were cheering from the start of the show until the end, every single night. Whenever it came to fast songs, everyone stood up and danced.

The run-down of the show was quite similar to the ones in last Aug. Other than including some new songs, the main difference was the ballet dancers for the songs 'Best Love' and 'Bewildered'.  The part when he sang 'Bewildered' was the best, both singing as well as acting. Although it's similar to the MTV version, yet, the feel was so different when viewing it 'live', even better effect and feel.

In the last show, I was very lucky having a ticket right in the centre second row. I could see Leslie very clearly, even clearer than the one in Toronto, as the distance between the stage and the seats were much closer in Hong Kong than in Toronto. Just like previous nights, Leslie said hello to everybody.  He also said he knew there were people from mainland China, Japan, Korea, Canada.  But this time, he mentioned London as well!  I was a bit surprised but very happy when I heard that!

Leslie sang some additional songs in the encore part that night.  The atmosphere was very touching.  Couldn't stop the tears when he sang 'Thousand Thousand Songs', the lines '......which year, which month, we can sing together again like tonight........', '.......leaving you at midnight, the future road might be long and lonely......'.  Probably because I was leaving Hong Kong right after the concert that night, the feelings towards those words were much stronger.....

Although I have attended all six shows, yet, still, I wish there were more......
