“What you can’t say on Earth, say it in outer space” is the theme of R&B veteran David Tao‘s world tour, DT in Space: The Rock & Talk Show 2010 (陶喆上太空說演唱會), slated to rock the Singapore Indoor Stadium on Jan 8, 2010.
After an exciting 2009 with concerts by Mandopop artistes such as rock band Mayday, homegrown singers Stefanie Sun and JJ Lin, talented singer-songwriter Cheer Chen and first season One Million Star winner Yoga Lin, Singaporeans can look forward to David Tao, or DT as he’s affectionately known, to kick start 2010 with his R&B magic.
After a 3-year break, the talented music producer released his sixth studio album Optus 69 on Aug 21. About 2 months later, DT started his new solo tour from Taipei, and will be travelling to cities in China such as Beijing before arriving in Singapore next January.
The 40-year-old has done major ‘live’ performances in front of a 10,000-strong crowd before, but this time he opts for a more down-to-earth style. Although the title of the concert suggests a futuristic theme, it’s actually related to the title of his new album. “69” refers to 1969, the year DT was born, and also the year that Man first set foot on the Moon.
The concert promises to bring the audience on a musical journey full of fantasy, love, peace, chaos and Rock ‘n’ Roll.
DT will be delivering a range of English classics by the likes of Led Zeppelin and The Beatles, as well as his own chart-topping hits like “Love is Simple” and “Normal Friends”.
