Something absolutely unbelievable happened to me on Christmas day this year. I received a Facebook message from Jade Entertainment telling me I was selected to join an after-show VIP session to meet Eason Chan face to face after the Eason Chan Duo concert in Vegas! The message said the autograph session was canceled, but we can bring a gift for Eason. Since I only had less than 24hrs notice, I thought of the best thing possible, regift a Christmas gift. That's right, you heard me. It sounds kinda bad, but the gift was chocolate and I probably wasn't going to eat it anyways.
The concert was amazing and full of energy. I'm surprised he was so down to earth. He bypassed the "encore" segment, you know where singer pretends to sing the very last song of the night, then the audience yells "encore" repetitively until he comes out again. Of course, it's always planned this way. Instead, he provided comedy relief through the whole segment, which was way worth it then just waiting for him to come out.
After the concert, they put the selected winners in this little room where 20+ peeps waited for Eason. The concert photographer (the person who organized this meet up, thanks to him!) said the gift bringers were the lucky ones since he would take a pic of them giving the gift to Eason. Score! We waited about 10 minutes and Eason finally showed up. Honestly, he looked exhausted and worn out, but what do you expect after singing for 2+ hrs nonstop. I really felt sorry for him for having to go out of his way to do this, since he had to do another concert the next day. We took a group pic. I sat right next to him and had my arms around his shoulder. After the group pic, he shook hands with everyone and then received his gifts. This was all really brief and before you knew it, he had to go already. I did also score one of his concert posters (it was just lying on the floor, so I just grabbed it lol). All in all, this was a pretty cool experience and was glad the stars are able to do this kind of stuff for their fans.
