Bruno Mars Live in Malaysia 2011

Bruno Mars Live in Malaysia concert is organized by Scenique Concerts & Events. Music fans are in for a blast as today’s hottest pop phenomenon, Bruno Mars, recent winner of the Grammy Award for ‘Best Male Pop Performance', gears up for a live concert at the Putra World Trade Centre in Kuala Lumpur on 10 April 2011, from 8.00pm onwards. Get your tickets early!

The concert coincides with the Asian leg of his ‘Doo-Wops & Hooligans’ World Tour, which kicked off late last year and saw him shuttling back and forth between major U.S and European cities, in conjunction with the release of the similarly-titled debut solo album (released locally by Warner Music Malaysia and now available in record stores nationwide). With his massive cult following, it’s not surprising how this multimedia superstar has chalked up sold-out concert performances worldwide.

I wish I can go! Too bad I won't be in KL during the concert. Oh well! Have lotsa fun if you're going. :)
