RENDEZVOUS WITH CRAIG DAVID AT TWIN TOWERS ALIVE 2014!

RENDEZVOUS WITH CRAIG DAVID AT TWIN TOWERS ALIVE

2014!

KUALA LUMPUR, 5th March 2014 – Craig David will set Malaysian hearts racing come 28 March 2014 as the British heartthrob from United Kingdom will make an appearance at the Twin Towers @live 2014.
Craig David is the second artist announced after the K-Pop sensation, Rain. They will be joined by a slew of high-profile artists to be announced on a later date. One thing is for sure, this is one party you would not want to miss.

Craig David rose to fame with “Re-Rewind” as a member of UK Garage group Artful Dodger. The track’s success led to David striking out on his own, his debut single “Fill Me In” making him the youngest male solo singer to reach number one in the UK. This was the first of four Top 10 hits from his seminal work, “Born To Do It”, which came second only to Michael Jackson’s “Thriller” in MTV’s Greatest Album of All-Time poll on both sides of the Atlantic.


Since then, David has continued to break the mould of contemporary R&B by boldly experimenting with different genres. This resulted in a unique sound that sold 13 million albums, picked up multiple award songs, promoted full- house shows worldwide and spawned countless imitators.

In 2012, Craig continued to collaborate with a number of artists, and released tracks with internationally acclaimed DJ Erick Morillo and Italian superstars Stereo Palma. Craig has also more recently returned to his childhood love of DJ-ing to present TS5.


When he is not busy juggling star-studded collaborations as well as weekly DJ sets on national radio and renowned nightclub Capital, David is finetuning his next album, “Following My Intuition”. Lucky fans were given a glimpse of the new material during his most recent tour, and David’s local fans should expect the same when he swings by Kuala Lumpur.

Twin Towers @Live 2014 is a FREE concert and open to all members of the public. Its Presenting Partners are PETRONAS Primax and PETRONAS Syntium.

Twin Towers @Live 2014 is proudly organised and managed by Live@Work Sdn Bhd.

Rain to cruise his way to Malaysia for Twin Towers @Live 2014

‘RAIN’ SET TO BLAZE THE STAGE AT TWIN TOWERS @LIVE 2014!

KUALA LUMPUR, 29 Jan 2014 – Local K-pop fans will have plenty of reasons to rock up to Plaza PETRONAS, KLCC as RAIN makes a triumphant return to the live music scene. The Korean superstar is the first of a series of artists to be announced for the annual extravaganza.

He will be performing on Saturday, 29 March 2014, the second night of the two-night Twin Towers @Live 2014 concert. Rain represents the next in a long line of Korean icons to have made an appearance at the concert, after Girls’ Generation, 2NE1, Wonder Girls and U-KISS.

Twin Towers @Live has made a name for itself in the Malaysian calendar of events for bringing in artistes sure to suit everyone’s beat, from rock (Hoobastank and Orianthi) and R&B/dance (Kelis) to house (DJ Tatsuro and DJ Face). Head turning performances by Demi Lovato and Backstreet Boys last year remains fresh in the minds of the attendees.

Rain, otherwise known as Jung Ji-Hoon, is one of many responsible for heralding the Hallyu Wave that has swept the globe. Stepping foot into the music industry with debut album “Bad Guy”, his slick dance moves and smouldering good looks quickly won fans over in his native country.

But it was not until his lead role in KBS drama “Full House” that his talents found an international audience. Since then, this prolific star has dropped four studio albums, featured in four television series and conquered Hollywood with two films.

After a two-year hiatus that saw him enlist in compulsory military service, Rain showed he has not lost his edge with the release of “Rain Effect” earlier this year. He is expected to play the double lead singles "30 Sexy" and "La Song", along with a combination of newer material and greatest hits.

Plaza PETRONAS, KLCC will prove to be the perfect setting for Rain's comeback, having played host to a bevy of world-class events the likes of the national New Year’s countdown celebration and Earth Hour. Its landmark attraction, the PETRONAS Twin Towers, is a constant magnet for millions of admirers.

Twin Towers @Live 2014 is a FREE concert and open to all members of the public. Its Presenting Partners are PETRONAS Primax and PETRONAS Syntium.

Twin Towers @Live 2014 is organised and managed by Live At Work Sdn Bhd.

LEESSANG stormed their 1st showcase in Malaysia + Q&A session

The day is finally here! Leessang, one of the most popular duo from South Korea finally made their way to Malaysia. Around 7.30 pm on the day of the showcase at KWC Mall, the emcee has chosen 6 lucky fans to be on stage and get closer to Leessang. After the lucky draw, the showcase started. Leessang hit the stage with “Modesty is difficult” as their opening song. The show went on with their second song “I turned off the tv”.

The atmosphere got heated quickly as fans were doing fan chant loudly which was directed by Leessang. Next, Leessang performed “You’re the answer to the guy like me” and “Woman who can’t break up, man who can’t leave the woman”. Both of the songs were quoted as the “Monday couple OST” as both of the songs were often played in the hit variety show "Running Man" where one of the Leessang's member, Gary is a cast member of, and Jihyo’s scene is played. Almost every fans sang along with Leessang as everyone was very familiar with the songs.

After they have performed four songs, Leessang took a break by greeting the fans and continued with a short Q&A session.

Q : How do you think of Malaysia?
Gary : Malaysia daebak!

Q : What is your ideal girl like?
Gill : (Smiling) Song Jihyo.
Gary : (Nodding his head) Song Jihyo.

With the most waited answer being poured out by the man himself, fans got so excited and Gary did nothing but feel shy and laughed.

Q : What is your resolution for year 2014?
Gary : Firstly, I wish everyone to be happy, and "Running Man"'s filming to be successful. 
Gill : 2014, I hope we can come back to Malaysia to have a performance again.

Right after the Q&A session, two games were played with a total of 6 lucky fans which were picked earlier on before the showcase. The first game was the “Couple game”, where Leessang and two lucky fans have to stand on a piece of newspaper that were getting smaller and smaller. After several rounds, Gary won the game. The next game was “Survival game”, which is equivalent to the musical chair. However, Gary and Gill lost in the first round of the game.


After the games, Leessang went to backstage to take a break while fans enjoy the introduction video of Leessang. The video showed Leessang in successful variety shows, which is Gill in “Infinity challenge”, and Gary in “Running Man”. Leessang came back with their new outfit after the break and they performed all of their hit songs such as “It’s a laugh behind sadness”, “Ballerino”, “Gary & Gill”, and lastly “Clown”. 

Gary and Gill went back to backstage right after the song “Clown”. However, fans did not give up on calling them back for encore stage as they can’t get enough of Leessang! After few minutes, a video was played and it asked the fans to show them what they’ve got. Leessang’s fans screamed all over the hall and finally Gary and Gill were back with their encore stage, “Let’s us meet right now” and “Rush”.

During the last song “Rush”, Gary and Gill threw out their caps and towels to the fans. They thanked all of the fans for coming and hoped they have a great night with them. Leessang, come back to Malaysia as soon as possible! The showcase was organized by Pop Culture Live! Next exciting show by Pop Culture Live! is coming very soon.

Skull & Haha Meet & Greet session with the fans + Q&A details

Before the duo, Skull and HaHa reach the venue of the Meet & Greet session at Paradigm Mall, the emcee had requests from fans that they are hoping to hear the boys greeting their Malaysian fans in Malay, saying "Saya sayang Malaysia" and of course, "Aku cinta pada mu".

As soon Skull and HaHa arrive, fans went crazy and greeted them will cheers. HaHa cheekily said "You're my sayang" to the fans as he hit the stage. This marked the first visit of the duo to Malaysia. They say that everybody in Malaysia is beautiful. HaHa, a cast member from the hit variety show "Running Man" proudly labelled himself as a humorous person as he can make fans scream and laugh anytime.

On the other hand, Skull introduced himself and greeted his Malaysian fans by quoting "Malaysia Boleh" with his hand up in the air, posing. Skull knew "Malaysia Boleh" is like a symbol to represent Malaysia.

Here are some Q&A details during the Meet & Greet session of Skull & HaHa

Q: Have you tried out any Malaysian food?

HaHa: Yeah, I have tried satay yesterday.

In the meanwhile, HaHa took out his handphone and started read the list of Malaysian food that he have written down in a note in his phone. Nasi lemak and Roti canai was in his list!

Q: What about Skull?

Skull: I feel very energetic and excited. Without all of you guys we will never get here

Skull showed off his language talent by saying "Saya cinta kamu!" (I love you) 

HaHa also took a good look around the mall to see all of their fans. 

Skull: I appreciate the chance and feel honored to be here and thank you.

Haha: "Malaysia Boleh"!

However, the fans jokingly echoed "HaHa Boleh" instead.

Q to the fans: Anybody wants to give Skull & HaHa some messages?

A fan actually asked HaHa how is Byul doing. As everyone knows, Byul is HaHa's newly wed-wife. Haha was trying to be funny by picking a fight with the fan who asked about his wife.

After the short Q&A session ended, photograph session starts. Category 1 ticket holders get the chance to take individual photograph with Skull and HaHa. Besides that, they also get an autograph gift from the boys.

There were many fans who took the chance to have an individual photograph with Skull & HaHa. It was obviously that Skull and HaHa have many male fans who came to support them. 

Before ending the Meet & Greet session with the fans, Skull thanked his Malaysian fans and hope that all of them will have fun in the showcase tonight.

Lastly, they bid farewell to their fans by cheering "Malaysia Boleh".
