17 Aug 2013 : The Elvis Tribute Show by Alex Wong - live in Genting
The highly anticipated 'Elvis Tribute Show by Alex Wong' has been my top event in my annual agenda. With its inception and debut in 2008 as a special event open to the public, it has garnered tremendous support over the years. For the 3rd consecutive year, my 2013 show was held at The Patio in Genting First World.
The challenge is to out-do myself with a fresh ideas and lasting impression year after year. Past 2 years were great, and unquestionably creates a higher expectation to be even better this year.
For a Saturday night at 11 PM, The Patio is the place to be. Expectedly, it was a full house crowd eagerly waiting for my performance. With a solid 90 minutes show and a break in between, it lasted beyond 2 AM, with a persistent strong crowd to the end.
A surprise element for my second set was emerging from the store room and getting on to the bar table rocking the house while rendering 'Suspicious Minds'.
In my black suit for my first set. Notice the by-standers catching the show at the back of the stage.
My second set in the Aloha Eagle suit.
The cheering and applause of the crowd, with compliments from the management for yet another excellent show is music to my ears. I officially ended my show with an encore session of 'Jailhouse Rock', 'Are you lonesome tonight', 'Doing the best I can' and lastly, 'If I can dream'.
Much appreciation to my fans and supporters and the management of The Patio for making it a successful event for me. I thank God for being with me through the planning stage with fresh ideas, practices and choreography rehearsals at home, and most importantly, doing exceptionally well for my ultimate 'examination'. Words can't describe the joy and satisfaction after the show ended.
Looking forward to many more live shows in Genting. Let's keep on Rockin' and Rollin'. Cheers ~
3 Aug 2013 : Elvis Alliance of Asia concert 2013 in Hong Kong
2013 marked a significant year for Elvis Tribute Artistes from Asia. Along with Mr. HT Long, we were the duo representing Malaysia for an exclusive Elvis of Alliance Asia concert, held also in conjunction with the founder's birthday. Yes, Mr. Tommy Ooi turned 65. Oh what a night !
Held in Novotel Wan Chai, Hong Kong, our event began the night before with a photo shoot for the magazine cover story by the South China Morning Post. We were on the streets of Wan Chai at sunset.
On the birthday bash itself, the dinner guests were entertained by the best of the best Elvis Tribute Artistes from Asia and beyond - Malaysia, Thailand, Japan, Singapore, Philippines, Hong Kong & Australia.
With so little time for so many of us, each could only render 3 songs. My songs were 'Hound Dog', 'Can't Help Falling In Love' and a special request by the birthday boy, 'Crying in the chapel'.
We, as the privileged international Elvis Tribute Artistes chosen for the Elvis Alliance of Asia, gathered as a team to deliver the very best of Elvis entertainment. It was in the spirit of collaboration instead of competition Each has his own style and strengths, complementing one another to pay the ultimate tribute to Elvis.
There were celebrities galore, and a rare occasion to meet them face-to-face.

We met last year for the same event in Hong Kong. A good chance for a duet in 2014!
With Mr. Anders Nelsson, a prominent figure in the Hong Kong entertainment industry.
The lovely lady is my Aunt Helen, who secretly arranged with Tommy to attend the event as a surprise for me! Thank you, Aunt Helen, for your support. Glad you had fun and enjoyed yourself.
