What do you do when the crowd wants an encore, but the band is already packing up the instruments?

The song Waa sang is 飛鳥 from her 2011 album, 不允許哭泣的場合 No Crying, and this is just gorgeous!  Lyrics by Waa, Music by Waa & 韓立康 Likang Han:

魏如萱 waa wei and Lovely Baby band (Achino Chang 張瀚中 (阿雞)-keys/accordion, 韓立康 Likang Han-guitar/synth, 賴聖文 Peter Lai-drums, Jack Ko 柯遵毓-bass, supplemented by cellist Hang Liu 劉涵, and that is 徐平 Lobby Boy on guitar. I think that is a new nickname for 徐皮 Lazybody aka Lazy Hsu.) 

This song (lyrics by Waa, music by Likang Han) is a imaginative new arrangement (by 徐平 Lobby Boy) of the original from 2011, which just goes to show you the versatility of a great song:

Take 25 minutes and go to Instagram and enjoy a very informal rehearsal of Waa Wei and Lovely Baby Band. =D

That gorgeous voice, that infectious laugh... And wow, she is more beautiful than ever. Just turned 39 earlier this month. 0_0

Kinda interesting that they use a click track for part of a couple of the tunes. *blip-blip-blip-blip-blip-blip* Just getting used to playing at the correct tempo for the tunes.

Also, no drummer or bassist at this rehearsal, maybe they are getting ready for a short set somewhere, not a full concert.

魏如萱 waa wei is about to open up her 花室 maison de waa store/showroom, directly across the lane from her cafe (forgood 好多咖啡)  Very convenient!  =D

(Previously, she only sold her maison de waa goods at an online store)
