  The shows are finally over.  The feedback has been incredible.  Some are saying the show was by far the best in my dads career.  He sang songs straight through starting at 830 p.m and ending close to 1130. 

  Several more shows have been announced, but its secret for now. The only complaint was Ryan and my part was too short!  Well, it is dads show, so we just support him as much as we can.  At the age of 61 he can still pull in a full house with an attendance of nearly 16,000 each night. That's amazing.

  I've gathered a bunch of pics from fans/friends/family.  I'll upload a huge amount tomorrow in the album, so for now enjoy these pics. 

  Thanks to all the family and friends that came to support. Thanks to my singing teacher for opening a part of my throat and stomach I never knew existed.  Thanks to Justin/patty chow for all the backstage nastiness.  Thanks for Mr.Ass and creepkin for the hardwork. Thanks to Ida for taking care of me.

  Since our part was small, I did my best to pull off as much energy as I could. I almost killed myself a few times, but in the end just ended up with bruised knees and swollen ankle thats still healing.

  

  Great article from East Weekly.  They mentioned when we are all together on stage, we are one family with one heart and not even having the biggest guest can compare to our lethal combination..ok the last 2 words are exaggerated.

  The newspapers everday had some very nice write up.  Dad was always in good shape and never was ill or going to die like they reported before. 

   

  Dad dedicated a song for Mom which he wrote way back in the day "carnation for Rebu".

  

  Ida got mentioned quite a lot in the papers as my dad explained to the crowd this was her favorite song:

  We also got harassed alot about our upcoming wedding. Seems everybody knows, but we're married already...or our we?...mua hahahhaa.

  While the whole show was a success it was unfortunate that one person passed away just before the show started.  A middle aged woman was taken to the hospital after not feeling well sitting in her seat and passed away.  Treasure and cherish one another folks....

  Enjoy these pics for now, don't forget, tomorrow, many, many more:

  

  The trio.

  

  Lettin my voice be heard.

  

  Ryan and I  were told to use these lollipops on stage....umm yea.

  

  Ok, I have the story on my guitar.  Yes, I did use the guitar from guitar hero.  Our part was a combination of singing 2 songs together. I really had nothing else to do, so I figured I can play along with the family.  Thanks Xbox...do I get a new free one now after smashing it on stage??

  

  Sometimes I do this pose at home when Justin is screwing up on a zombie level in Call of Duty the videogame.

  

  There goes my knees...and Ryan rockin it!

  

  You talkin to me??

  Yep.  I attempted the Homer Simpsons spin move:

  UPDATE:  Thanks to Chung for sendin me this article from The Standard:

  

  If you can't read it: Hong Kong took to Samuel Hui when he first broke into showbiz with his winning smile and good looks. Forty years on that flame burns birght.  The 'God of Song' thrilled packed houses at Hong Kong Coliseum over four nights last week.  He maybe 61, but then isn't youth and age like Half Catty and Eight Taels, the title of his immortal song.

  01. Fans reach out as Hui dishes out towels with his signature leopard print; 02 The King is dead, long live the king, Hong Kong's Elvis; 03 Hui and Song Ryan play backup as younger son Scott belts out a number; 04 Model Coco shows who her hero is witha a sexy outift.
