Mayday (consisting of members Ashin, Monster, Stone, Masa & Guan You) held their 2009 D.N.A. World Tour Hong Kong stop, from May 20 to May 22, 2009 at Hong Kong Coliseum. Wyman Wong, Hilary Tsui, and Eason Chan attended the last show as audience members.

Eason arrived midway through the show and caused an uproar as he entered. Mayday entered into a yelling match with the audience to see who would yell louder and Eason had much fun during that segment. During the show, Ashin said, "I do not know Eason well, I just admire him the way you guys (the audience) do." Eason got up and yelled back in response. During the post-concert celebration, Mayday was asked why they didn't invite Eason onstage. Ashin answered, "If we invited him I'm certain we would have to prepare $100,000 HKD [for fines due to going over time at Hong Kong Coliseum] and would be blacklisted. However, band member Masa was extremely excited just seeing Eason in the audience."

During the show, the audience wanted to see Mayday dance, so Ashin joked, "If you guys want to see dancing, go watch Fahrenheit (飛輪海); if you guys want to see good-looking guys, go watch F4; if you guys want to see a bad dancing band you've come to the right show! There is something wrong with your mindsets, why would you want to watch bad dancing?!"
