Tears for Fears in Hong Kong!

I received an email from Lorenzo "Soy" Agra on 1 March asking if I would like to see the Tears for Fears' concert in Hong Kong. Being an 80s kid, I automatically said "yes". For a minute there, I did think that, perhaps, seeing them in Manila would be much better as all iconic 80s bands have a zillion followers back home. At any rate, the Manila play date did not suit my schedule, so the next best thing was to see them with my Filipino group here in Hong Kong. So, on 6 May, we trooped to HK International Trade & Exhibition Centre in Kowloon Bay.

Here we are arriving at the concert hall... Soy the organiser is in the middle. I am wearing an off-shoulder item -- an attempt to look kind of 80s. While I wanted an 80s look, I simply did not have the guts to add shoulder pads... which would have resulted in a more" authentic look for the era!

Here are some random photos taken by Soy, the organiser/photographer....

The audience - that is Richard - we were just a couple of meters from the stage.

Thanks for the fun evening and the photos, Soy!!!
