I reached tekka mrkt @ around 10.50a.m. The filming crew from Arts Central were alr there waiting for BP. They were located near the other end of the place. Finally BP appeared @ ard 11.45a.m. The filming crew continue to film & interviewed them. After a while, Michael informed the viewing audience dat there would be a slight delay. BP did a few soundchecks. There was alr a crowd by 12p.m. Filming started & BP started the performance. There was Danny's guitar case opened for "donations", hehe! They warmed up wiv the intro part of "one more chance" & sang the following songs with some choreography.
  1. One more chance (warm-up)
  2. Sukiyaki
  3. Can't help fallin' in love
  4. My cherie amour
  5. Gor liap
  6. Abba (medley)
  7. Yi bei cha
  8. Qiu ni huay lai
  9. Abuden
Dur. the song "my cherie amour", Michael managed to get an old lady passing by to stay to hear them. In between the performance, one passerby really dropped money into the case! The whole thing lasted about 1 hr. After the event, the filming crew continue to interview ppl from the audience abt the show.
