God of Songs Jacky Cheung will kick off the 20 show Hong Kong leg of his "Jacky Cheung ½ Century Concert" tonight at the HK Coliseum. All 190,000 tickets for the 20 shows have been long sold out. Due to each show being close to 3 hours long, Jacky’s concert organizer and manager Florence Chan encourages all fans / audiences to arrive early so that the show can start on time at 8:15pm sharp. In efforts to give fans the best experience possible, the concert organizers rebuilt a brand new stage for the concert that is completely different from the one used during Jacky’s World Tour in China and the U.S. -- one made especially for the HK Coliseum. The effect is that Jacky will be able to get more ‘up close’ with the audience – in fact, during one particular segment, Jacky will be sitting right in front of the fans, with virtually ‘zero’ distance between them, which is sure to make many Jacky fans very happy!
Earlier in the week, Jacky encouraged fans and concert-goers not to give him flowers this time, but rather donate rice instead to help feed the poor and also protect the environment. Mrs. Chan expressed that the responses from the fans have been overwhelming, so they decided that after Jacky’s 5th show on the 18th, they will arrange a handover ceremony backstage for the donations.
