This post is more of a continuation of the previous post, Esplanade walk and The Merlion.
As already mentioned in my previous post, I had a surprise encounter with Danny Choo at The Merlion site. I thought myself, what are the odds in meeting him in person at Singapore and before AFA09?
I knew he was here for AFA09 but to meet him in person and see a live troopering performance upfront was a real treat since I’m just some ‘random’ guy from Australia. I’m no special than any other Aussies here regardless if I’m Asian or not.
Back to Part 1 of his Trooping video, if you stop at 0:54, you can see me on your right holding a compact camera in t-shirt and jean shorts. lol
Unfortunately, cameras are not great in recording video and the audio turned out crap. In addition, it was windy that day as well so that made the audio even worse but overall, there is enough videos out there to get the idea of his dancing style.
Finally to conclude it off, a picture with the man himself. :D
Danny, if your reading THANK YOU!!! ^^d

I hope to get to meet him myself one day, but being in the states limits my exposure. It must of been a great experience to see an Otaku Idol in the flesh!.

Danny Choo is actually a much better dance than I had expected. Some nice pop and locking skills there.

@Rin
I read that post when u were there.
Great experience indeed.
@Adun
I mentioned ur name when i talked to him as I figured he knows you.
@Reltair
Indeed, very. lol
@phossil
No time for starbucks. He had a busy schedule ahead of him.
@Pudding
Hell YEAH!!!!!!
@bluedrakon
If u get a chance to go to Japan, email him to see if u can get a chance. Better make it earlier as his schedule very tight everyday.
@Reijin
I’m sure everyone would. lol
@meronpan
Maybe u will, maybe u will. XD
@Yi
