Jamiroquai’s Concert
Thursday, April 9, 2009
Today was a literally long day for me. I went out to Karawaci at 9 AM, gone back home by 4 PM, went out again to Sentul for the concert at 5 PM, and I just got back home around 1.30 AM. Hell, I’m at tomorrow right now! But it was all worth it, and seeing Jamiroquai’s live concert in person should be considered as one of the unforgettable moments.
Today’s concert started out late, when they said that the concert starts at 8 PM, well no, Dimi was performing the opening act at that time and the real concert starts at 10 PM, and it spans for two hours straight with ten songs.
While listening to Jamiroquai’s CDs or MP3s is something that we often do, seeing them perform live is even sicker than I ever imagined. The band played everything flawlessly as if you’re listening to a sound loop. Manual sound loop. With two background singers, there are only eight of them but they manage to shake Sentul City’s Convention Center with a scale that’s off the chart. Too bad they didn’t play out Virtual Insanity, but as long as my all time favorite driving song—Cosmic Girl—is played, everything is just perfect! It is too bad, though, that we’re not allowed to bring cameras inside (WTF!) and I was only able to take photos from my iPhone.
On a sidenote, I met a plentiful of friends and old friends there, including Mande Austriono, Marthin Nayoan, Andira Pramanta and family, Steny Agustaf, and saw Pandji’s face on the big screen LOL.
This is definitely the best concert I ever attended, the atmosphere was splendid, we had really great fun. And Yero, thank you for the birthday present!
