It's a GIG

Assalamualaikum and hello there!

There was TV9’s Gig at i-City Shah Alam on the 9th of July. So since i-City is like, 10 footsteps away from my house, I thought why not give it a try. If I was lucky, maybe I’ll bump into my idol, Ahmad Izham Omar. (yes, IDOL. you got a problem with that?! tetiba nak emo)

So hari Ahad tu, aku dan Azy bersemangat bersiap sedia nak pi GIG for the first time together. Masa aku dok besiap, Azy dok la kelebek Twitter dari iPhone dia. Tiba-tiba, aku dengaq Azy terjerit-jerit dari hall aku. Isk, deni kena histeria pulak ka? So aku pn berlari keluaq sambil bersiap sedia nak letak tangan ataih dahi dia and baca Bismillah.

“Anis!!!!! AIO kat ataih stage dengan Wings!!”

“HA?!!! OMG!! Kita dh lambat!! Cepat wei.. cepat!!!” lalu berlari masuk ke bilik balik. Aduh, terseliuh pinggang aku masa “lap” nak masuk bilik tadi.

In less than 10 minutes, we reached i-City entrance. More and more people started to come, cars started to line up to enter the parking lot. Sampai-sampai, ada sorang akak ni tengah collect duit.

"Sepuluh ringgit, dik," akak tu berkata.

Then I gave Azy this jom-kita-demah-deni-buang-sedaih-dua look. Azy then "replied" with bayaq-ja-la-jangan-dok-buat-ramai-nanti-aku-kot-yang-demah-hang look. Isk, tak mau aku didemah oleh Gangster Jalan Makloom nih. Lalu kami pn bayaq la parking tu dengan rasa tak rela hati langsung.

After we paid the parking fee, we drove up the hill, to enter the parking lot. Azy said, still tak puaih hati dengan parking fee mahal tu, "Isk.. apa punya mahai tak tau.. sampai sepuluh ringgit?? Aku dok ingat lima ringgit ja td. Gila. Nak galak orang mai, orang galak yang mai." (Kami la yang galak tu)

The parking lot was quite horrible. Tanah tak rata dan berbatu-batu.

“Rosak roda aku aih. Tudia ‘roda’. Macam aku bawak keta lembu pulak,” aku membebel sambil mata meliar cari spot yang best.

Lepas ja aku park keta, aku kata kat Azy, "Alhamdulillah.. spot baik punya dapat. Dekat sikit nak bejalan masuk."

"Spot beik la depan sampah!" Azy menjawab sambil tunjuk ke arah sampah sarap di depan keta aku.
Ahh.. lantak la. Bukan nak kena angkut sampah tu tgk gig pn.

Orang semakin ramai. Kecik, besaq, tinggi, pendek, tua, muda, Bangla tak Bangla, Indon tak Indon, semua ada. Aku pegang erat lengan Azy, takot hilang.

“Kepala aku ketaq dh wei…” aku berbisik kat Azy. I always get that "ketaq kepala" effect when I get excited about something. Kena bawak berubat ni.

“Hang ni.. BAYANG dia pn tak nampak lagi dh ketaq kepala. Aku BERUBAT nnt kot,” Azy balaih. Hurm... she read my mind!

Hati aku makin berdebar. I kept on thinking what would I say if I saw him? How would I react? How did I look now?!

Kami bejalan laju tuju ke arah tepi stage yang gah berdiri. There were 2 stages and Hujan was performing on the left stage. Aku tak rasa apa, sebab aku takdak la minat sangat Hujan ni. Aku lagi minat kumpulan Halalintaq. (mesti hangpa tak penah dengaq, sebab.. kumpulan tu takdak pn).

Mata aku mula meliar cari Ahmad Izham Omar. Isk… where could he possibly be? Think Anis, think!

Tiba-tiba, Faizal Ismail dan Aidit keluar ke pentas - they were the hosts that night. Tak dapat jumpa Ahmad Izham Omar, Faizal Ismail pn jadi la. Tapi masalahnya lani, aku dok nampak Faizal tu besaq kala jengking ja. Kirim salam je la.

Not long after that, they announced that Aizat was going to perform on the stage on the right. I love Aizat! So aku and Azy pun kelam kabut jalan ke stage lagi satu. Kami punya bejalan malam tu, dengan lajunya, dengan men’cilok’nya, dengan panasnya, turun sekilo dua apa.

Aizat sang a lot of songs that I was familiar with. So I got to sing along with him, which was quite fun. Sambil menyanyi, mata bukan tengok Aizat punya performance sangat pn.. dok laaa mencari Ahmad Izham Omar. Asal nampak a guy yang pakai spek, T-shirt TV9 Gig, hati aku dh tersentap. Not him. Damn it!

Ok, I thought, I couldn’t be standing here expecting him to appear. I had to get moving. So I said to Azy while pointing at more crowded...er...crowd. “Azy, aku nak pi masuk sana sat, kot-kot la dia ada situ,”

Azy mengganguk sambil kata, “OK, aku tunggu sini. Aku usha kat sini punya. Apa-apa telepon.” Tetiba rasa mcm dok cari orang jahat pulak.

After a few minutes in the crowd... i saw someone.. and I ran straight to Azy.

"Azy!!! Mai ikut aku! Cepat!!" aku berkata dengan excitednya sambil menarik lengan Azy.

"Dia ka weih? Hang nampak dia ka?! OMG!!" Azy turut sama excited.

I pulled Azy into the crowd and pointed to this one guy and said, "Ada abg juai koci."
