Wooo hooo, my third International gig (my first one was in Nepal and second in Singapore) in HongKong and i rawk the hausssss!!! My Standup material tonight included the reason i am fat, why Datuk Samy Vellu is still in office, why my wife decided to marry a fat boy, what is good about being fat, the problem fat people have shopping in malaysia, my fear of airports and immigration and why i love siti so muuch.
I swear to you before the show i was macam 'KALAU TOREH MUKA PUN DARAH TAK KELUAR' or dalam bahasa jermannya 'pucat gigi'. It has been a while since i've done a standup show kerana concentrate on my movie making jer. BUT I am back baybee!! the king isss Back!!!
Actually i even surprised myself, i was very calm and very fluid in my delivery. You could have thrown me anything and i could have turned it into a joke.... BEST GILA SIUT when you do a good show that people enjoy themselves, lebih-lebih lagi when it's an international audience.) I notice even the subtle stuff also they got. Best siut.
I guess this is why i love to perform infront of a crowd, i enjoy seeing their reaction, their smiles, their laughter and when i do good, the payoff as a performer is unbelievable... you feel like you could walk on water (but it is highly unadvisable)!
And the money is great too.
i have always believed that when you love what you're doing, it never seems like work, it's always fun and when you get paid it feels like "what?? and you're paying me to have fun too?"... "you people are out of your mind!!!"
SO WHY DO SOMETHING YOU DON"T LOVE?
Power to the people.

Passion is always the number one key that motivates anyone to do better. Well as long as passion comes before money, it's definately going to be a well worthy experience.
So it's all good :) Or atleast the reward is far greater :)
Keep rocking on Afdlin!

(i hope you don't mind... copyright issues and all!)

Boss,
i'm glad we had fun, great trip to Hong Kong. Let's do it again! boley shopping sakan, kali ni kita survey dulu kat mana halal restaurant k,
nite nite!
Tahniah untuk Bro. Kodok. Sejak menang Skrin ni, mencanak-canak pula jemputan datang. Sampai ke Hong Kong! Bila pula nak datang KK Bro?
* Chris, langadon no ot tulun Sabah montok di kodok nu! :)
El Kodok,
Unfortunately kat Malaysia ni doing what you love very rarely puts the grocery in the fridge.
What to do? :)
Le Kimster of Kuala Lumpur
You lucky cekodok you! You get paid doing things you love *grrrrrr*
*sigh* i wish i can say the same about myself *sigh*
i tumpang gumbira.. ( ada tak gambar kodok tgh menari.. heheheh)
Hi Chief Kodok,
Suggestion:
Why not produce your material in CDs? Buat la recording kat Actors Studio ke (get the 'live' audience 'feel').
There's no stand-up comedy CD release in Malaysia (setahu aku la...). Why not be the first? Maybe pair dgn Harith Iskandar ke, sure meletup.
The last one I heard was on cassette by Pak Jamali Shadat.
Afdlin, i luv your jokes, the way you joke it and the story of the joke. And i luve your acting, the way you act and the story you made.
BUT am still trying to like you singing...
oh man.. being fat owes have de fun. being thin really a bore sometimes. :(
hi again abg adflin. nak minta tolong u and sumer bloggers kat sini. PLs sign the SPCA petition kat www.spca.org.my .. we need at least 100,000 signatures ~ appeals for amendments to the law protecting animals in Malaysia. The animals need your help, pls. Tq again.
Abang Afdlin, list down kan lah the facts why you so fat for us yang tak berpeluang tengok you perform, boleh kan???
Hi Afdlin,
Keep on doing what you've been doing, cause you sure look very good at it.
As for your question, what do you like about being fat? I heard that today on a radio. Well, eventhough I am not fat myself, I do know that chubby people are really cute, very cuddly, mostly very funny yet a sensitive being and they are appreciative of everything that they have which makes them a good companion. Those are the most positive things I found in big-sized people.
syoknyer g obersi....
p/s: der terjumpa dgn sammy cheng dak? huhuh
adlin,
