Bolton was in Kuala Lumpur last October, performing as a guest artiste for David Foster in the latter's David Foster & Friends – Live Asia Tour 2011 concert. This year, he is back to woo the audience with his soulful classics such as How Am I Supposed To Live Without You, Time, Love And Tenderness, Soul Provider, How Can We Be Lovers? and Said I Loved You ...

The show, to be held at the Plenary Hall in Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre, will also see the 59-year-old crooner take on hits by other artistes such as Bee Gees' To Love Somebody, Percy Sledge's When A Man Loves A Woman and Bob Dylan's To Make You Feel My Love. Bolton, who started his career in a heavy metal band, Blackjack, rose to fame in the late 1980s for his tender love tunes and swoon-worthy good looks. To date, he has sold over 53 million albums worldwide and bagged two Grammys for Best Pop Male Vocal Performance, besides being featured on several People magazine's "Sexiest Man Alive" issues.

| Posted: 03 Oct 2012 03:49 AM PDT SUPER Junior-M (top) will be back in Malaysia for the 2012 Asia Super Showcase. The much-anticipated show is jointly organised by Marctensia Concerts and Universal Music Malaysia. Active since 2008, they are billed as a Mandopop-singing sub-group that branched out of the main K-pop boy band. They currently comprise eight members (six Korean and two Chinese): Siwon, Donghae, Ryeowook, Sungmin, Kyuhyun, Eunhyuk, Zhou Mi and Henry. Not only is this Super Junior-M's first Asia Super Showcase, exclusively for Malaysia, but the members will also be taking to the stage as a complete group here on our shores. Malaysian ELF a.k.a EverLasting Friends (Super Junior's Official Fanclub) have long awaited the return of SuJu-M to Malaysia after the group made its first live appearance last year at the our National Youth Day 2011 celebrations at Putrajaya. On that day, an audience estimated at more than 30,000 showed up to celebrate the occasion with the group (minus Siwon and Donghae). The 2012 Asia Super Showcase in Malaysia will be held at Kenanga Wholesale City (Level 15) in Kuala Lumpur on Dec 11 at 8pm. Ticket sales commence in mid-October. For more details, contact Marctensia Concerts (03-2092 1199) or Universal Music Malaysia Chinese (03-7958 7433) or follow them on Facebook or Twitter. |
| Grohl says Foo Fighters not splitting, on hiatus Posted: 02 Oct 2012 07:04 PM PDT LOS ANGELES: Lead singer Dave Grohl of Grammy-winning rock band Foo Fighters said on Tuesday the band was not splitting up but was taking a break. Grohl, 43, fueled speculation about a split by telling fans at a New York festival on Saturday that "this is the show where we come out and we play as many songs as we can ... I don't know when we're going to do it again," according to MTV News. But in a public letter sent by Foo Fighters' representative Dana West, Grohl said the band was taking a break but had no intentions of disbanding. "I can't give up this band. And I never will. Because it's not just a band to me. It's my life. It's my family. It's my world," Grohl said. The singer said he did not know when Foo Fighters was going to play again, but added that "it's a good thing for all of us to go away for a while. It's one of the reasons we're still here." Foo Fighters was founded in 1994 by Grohl, the drummer for grunge band Nirvana, following the death of Nirvana's lead singer Kurt Cobain. During the hiatus, Grohl said, he will be releasing a documentary and album project called Sound City. "It could be the biggest, most important project I've ever worked on," he said. The band, which also includes bassist Nate Mendel, drummer Taylor Hawkins and guitarists Chris Shiflett and Pat Smear, has released seven studio albums led by singles such as "Everlong," "Times Like These" and "Learn To Fly." It has won 11 Grammy awards. - Reuters |
