Jay's Latest Concert Review in Macau

The undisputed King of Mandopop played a sell-out concert at The Venetian Macao-Hotel-Resort on Saturday night. And he broke his image of a cool, private, slightly aloof musician – charming his 15,000-strong audience with his brand of unique humor and his cheeky antics.

Comprised of 15,000 fans mainly in their teens and 20s, many of them waving banners and placards with tributes emblazoned, the rabid enthusiasm visible in the facees of the audience left no question as to why the rather expensive tickets had sold out weeks ago.

The pop star made an appearance just after 8.30pm in an outrageous operatic headdress with what looked like hair extensions and acknowledged fans from Singapore, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Japan. After seeing fans enthusiastically waving glow sticks (which had been banned) in the air, he encouraged those that had managed to sneak them past security to throw them on stage, so he could use them as drumsticks.

Throughout the 2-hour concert, he continued to tease and chide the crowd – and they lapped it all up with glee. He chided the audience, accusing them that they probably only came to Macau to gamble, rather than to see his show (we’re guessing he was referring to the portion that were old enough to step into a casino). With members of his family, including his grandmother and mother in the audience, he told the protesting crowd: “My mum told me not to go to casinos because you’ll lose a lot of money. I only came to this casino to see you all.”

He then added cheekily, that he probably would gamble later, so “see you around”. According to an article on batgwa.com, in an interview after the concert, the Jay admitted that he did gamble (we assume with the high rollers) and lost HKD20,000.

He had a lot more luck on stage than on the gaming floor however. He certainly delighted the crowd by throwing his performance props including what must have been a very light pair of nunchuks and a cane into the audience and showed he could multitask, by singing while playing the piano.

Jay once again showed his diverse talents, with street and break-dance moves (which while not boy band material) were proficient enough) and strong clear vocals.

If you couldn’t understand what he was singing, it was through no fault of the sound system – his trademark style of mumbling while singing meant it was difficult to discern the lyrics. Thankfully – forward thinking meant some bright spark had arranged for the lyrics were projected on a huge overhead screen, allowing fans who hadn’t memorized the words to sing along.

In what Jay said was a first in all his years in performance, he announced that he would do something “special” - which was bringing a fan up on stage to sing a duet. At this point, the fans right until the back of the Arena started to surge forward, and had to be restrained by security. After saying he was looking for a good singer, a bunch of clear-headed fan club members singled out one female member. Jay asked security to bring up the young and surprisingly calm fan, who then proceeded speak in broken Mandarin to him, even after Jay told her he could understand Cantonese. The lucky girl then got to sing a duet with him, before being ushered back to reality by security.

She wasn’t the only one who got to interact with Jay. In an exercise which probably proved a major headache for Venetian security, Jay came down from his pedestal, right past the barricades, and continued singing while shaking hands with people in the audience. His crowd-pleasing behavior stopped at removing his top – although the hunky male dancers stripped off, much to the delight of the female fans.

Jay had another surprise in store. For his first encore, he disappeared for a while, only to appear on a mini-stage at the back of the Arena, winning brownie points of the fans who could only afford the cheapest tickets, and creating surge to the back.

One put it quite eloquently, saying: “I thought he was ugly, but up close, he looked pretty good. He exuded confidence and was charming, and smiled a lot more than I thought he would.”

Jay left by a side door, and reappeared back on the stage to perform a few more numbers. Over 20 songs, and more than 2 hours, and 15,000 happy customers.

Yay for Jay.
