Malaysian singer Aizat Amdan, with 18 years in the music industry, expresses a preference for intimate, small-scale performances over large concerts. He finds that acoustic settings, often just him and his guitar, allow for a more genuine connection with his audience. Amdan believes these smaller stages foster honesty and deeper appreciation, making him feel more confident and assured. He stated, "If the concert is large or small, I will still give my best. For me, that is the satisfaction."

I am very happy every time I get to perform acoustically where that is my advantage. A small stage space is also enough for me as a singer and lyricist for a performance in front of fans.

"For me, fans can more easily feel the honesty in my performance even on a small stage," he explained. He added that even if only one person attends, he would still perform with his best effort, viewing the stage as his home.
