Canadian crooner Michael Buble, performed to a sold out crowd on the 9th March at the Singapore Indoor Stadium. This concert was part of his "Crazy Love" tour and it was a roaring success. Michael Buble is a very charismatic performer and he connects so well with the audience, that it was a fun concert with fantastic music. The last time Michael Buble performed in Singapore was 5 years ago and he mentioned this because at that time he basically flew in, performed and then left. This time he came a day earlier and visited the new Marina Bay Sands Hotel and Casino, the Singapore Zoo and the Singapore Night Safari - he had such good things to say about this city state, that even though we are not Singaporean, we felt proud of Singapore and proud to be residents here.
David purchased our tickets back in November, but on the actual day of the concert, we were fortunate in that we got to swap our tickets for better seats. Someone that David knows was given a pair of tickets as a gift, but he could not go, so he offered to swap the tickets he was given for the ones that we had (he gave our tickets to someone else). As it turns out, the tickets that we ended up with were in the middle section, ten rows from the front and worth a whopping $600.00 Singapore dollars - needless to say we were very grateful for the way things turned out. These seats allowed us to come within feet of Michael Buble, as he walked down the aisle where we were sitting. I (Sam) even got to touch him on the arm - okay now I'm sounding like a crazy fan, but it was such a thrill to see him up-close and personal.
The last time we saw Michael Buble was in 2005 in Vancouver, two days before we got married, so this concert brought back some very happy memories!
