Urban Jazz_crossover







An hectic week must be ended with some fun. It was good idea to say yes to my friend who asked me to go clubbing, spending late night on some small room with some Indonesian famous singer.

Arrived Empire Place on 9pm, it was quite late as Humania was singing for two songs already. The show started about 8pm actually but my friend was very busy so she late picked me up. Never mind! We were still have million minutes to enjoy the music party.

Entered the dark room, like big hall, but became small as so many young guys came, with friends, partner, associates, even with lovers. No dress code thus many style of dress could be seen there. It was time to express ourselves on outfit. Cigarette smoke was flying around the room, touched our dress, body, hair and eyes. It was quite short winded and smart in eyes. Again, never mind! Enjoy the party. Dji Sam Soe was the sponsor of this program. Urban Jazz Crossover 2009 was!

Lighting and sound system was very good. Good work! I was satisfied.
Even though we came late but we could move between the density of audience, from back to front, close to the stage, close to the speaker. Oops, loud music! Faster heartbeat too. Kept standing up between so many photographer. Thanks God for not use high heels but my friend did (quite pain? Stiff, Diiii..)

I loved Andy Rif,” andai ku jadi raja…” and Candil “ beat it…” Bravo Gleen Fredly! ( little deep share for your family problem, hiks..!) Thumb for Ari Lasso, Edwin-Coklat guitarist and new comer, Lala, beautiful singer. Lately I noticed she was half Indonesian-Philippine. Applause for Daniel, cute guy who sang classical as background song for some singers. It was called crossover so the jazz melody was combine with rock, reggae, rap and pop.

For sure, we did not forget to be “narcis” for a while by taking picture in front of cigarette billboard. We felt we were artist as well. But it had to be patient and on queue as many “narcisholic” too.

Went home on 12.30, not too late, really? Diii, were you sleepy or you were not ready in moving your car? Surprised for a little stretch on your car, you kissed your car on the park wall. Good job! Smile! (26May09)
