\nRock The World 11, 10th December 2011, back at the perennial venue – Merdeka Stadium!<\/p>\n


\nBefore we cut to the bands, however, here are some pictures of the crowd!<\/p>\n


\nThere was a stage outside the stadium, with a smaller crowd and some indie bands.<\/p>\n


\nThe performances took a break for some drifting action! Yes she is a champ.<\/p>\n


\nThere was also a graffiti area where cars would be sprayed, as well as a Volkswagen Beetle gathering. You know, the real<\/b> Bumblebee.<\/p>\n


\nI got to familiarize myself with the Samyang 35mm F1.4 that I just got, at that time.<\/p>\n


\nOf course, I darkened the midtones a bit, to give the car its proper black sheen.<\/p>\n


\nLater at night…<\/p>\n


\nSpotted on a Beetle.<\/p>\n


\nIn between the outdoor car park and the stadium itself was a walkway, where I saw this. I guess the spirit of Merdeka Stadium believes this, too.<\/p>\n


\nOn stage, TuneTalk’s Mat Tune mascot, rocking out! Very catchy tune, indeed.<\/p>\n


\nIt was also a lunar eclipse that night, not that anybody cared.<\/p>\n


\nThe world’s biggest SIM-card-shaped balloon.<\/p>\n


\nMan, why do people who go on stage during Rock The World to play the Guitar Hero challenge always suck? It seems odd at a rock concert. Especially so when hipsters at Urbanscapes are a lot better at Guitar Hero (better than me, even!) By better, I mean, a gripping head-to-head challenge where we alternate between 1st and 2nd a lot in one song, and the audience is not sure who to bet on! One where both players play Hard difficulty, but in fact play Expert casually at home!<\/p>\n

Of course, that is emcee Fadhil on stage – very odd that this iteration didn’t have classic emcee Harooooon!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
