Jeff Satur Dazzles As Space Shuttle No. 8 Asia Tour Touches Down in Manila
Filipino Saturdayss have their fill of great banter and excellent music from Jeff Satur last March 2!
Jeff Satur brought his A-game as he staged Space Shuttle No.8 Asia Tour in Manila on March 2, 2024, at the New Frontier Theater. The supremely talented and multi-hyphenated artist from Thailand mesmerized fans as he serenaded them with songs that melted the audience’s hearts.
Showcasing top-notch vocal prowess, Jeff kicked off the concert with dynamic performances of “Steal the Show” and “Highway”. He then slowed things down with a heartfelt rendition of “Complicated”. Finishing off his first set with dulcet melodies, he enchanted the crowd with songs “Hide”, “Almost Over You” and “Lucid”.
The Thai star came back on stage with an enthralling cover performance of Beyonce’s “Crazy In Love”. He followed it up with “Dum Dum” and “Comedy”. As for the next song “Stranger”, he shared that he had written the song for the stage play Closer, which he was a part of. The song is melodic, displaying Jeff’s soulful voice and his playful wit as he ad-libbed and changed the words towards the song’s end. After the poignant number, he gradually sped up the tempo with “Black Tie”.
Jeff Satur started his next set with “Loop” and did a cover of BTS Jungkook’s “Standing Next To You”. For this number, he did a dance break, much to the fans’ delight (did it one more time at the audience’s request). He continued the musical extravaganza with songs “Ghost”, the crowd favorite “Why Don’t You Stay”, songs for fans “Saturdayss”, “Yellow Leaf”, and “Fade”.
He came back wearing Barong, the country’s national costume and performed “Far” and “Moment” for his encore stage.
In between sets, Jeff was very animated and indulgent, exchanging banter with the audience. He greeted the crowd and expressed his gratitude for the warm welcome. He said that seeing and hearing the fans’ screams made his heart so full. He acknowledged the crowd at the balcony stating that even though he couldn’t see them, he could feel their energy and their love.
When he saw a fan dressed in a wedding dress, he asked her where the groom was and the crowd pointed at him. At this point, he burst out laughing and said “There’s so much joking around (flirting) but all in good fun. He revealed that he sees fans’ posts/ comments and that even though he couldn’t understand the words, he learned quite a few through the translate option. He specifically mentioned “Ang pogi ko” (I am handsome) as the most common comment he saw.
Jeff said that a lot has happened since the last time he was in the Philippines for the KinnPorsche World Tour. He admitted being surprised by how many fans went to see the cast at the time, and for that, he was so touched and thankful. He remembered singing Ben&Ben’s “Leaves” for the fans back then and it was such a good time. He said that some things occurred after that but he was glad to be able to come to the Philippines once again.
During the fan event, the VCR played has no audio but Jeff took it in stride and quipped to just send him the original video with sound. Despite the technical mishap, Jeff showed appreciation for the fan project. He promised to come back, even if the fans liked it or not, and the next time he sees his Filipino Saturdayss, he will perform a Filipino song for them.
After singing his last encore song “Moment”, Jeff Satur capped the night off by taking photos with the crowd, asking them to take care as they go home, and bid the audience goodbye.
Special thanks to Live Nation Philippines.
