1 Utama 2010 Countdown Concert: One magnificent night of stellar performances


Thousands of new year revellers partied the night away at the 1 Utama 2010 Countdown Concert held on the eve of 31 December 2009 at the outdoor Central Park Avenue (1 Utama new wing).

It was one magnificent night of stellar performances by some of the finest local and international performers such as award winning hip hop artiste Joe Flizzow (formerly from hip hop band Too Phat), Asia’s leading hip hop rock band Pop Shuvit and Asia’s legendary music band Beyond from Hong Kong.

The steller performances ushered in the new year with the merrymakers celebrating the arrival of 2010 until the wee hours with the night’s star-studded performances and a spectacular international musical firework presentation when the clock struck midnight.



Moots (with his right hand raised) and four other members from local hip hop rock band Pop Shuvit had the audience in awe with their adrenaline packed live performance and electric blend of hip hop and rock. The band got its name from a skateboarding trick of almost the same name.


Pop Shuvit was once again chosen from 20,000 applicants to perform at the "South by Southwest Conferences and Festivals 2010" (SXSW 2010) to be held in Austin, Texas, USA in March 2010.
