unforgettable moment...



I'm falling in love right from the first time i heard this music
there's a digeridoo..groove..funk..acid jazz..vintage jazz funk..even disco!

wow..that's something!
only one band can blend it into something really great music
and it's Jamiroquai...

from the first time I heard, It was on 1997..
the more I heard them, the more I fall deeply in love with them..

Jamiroquai, as in Jamming and Iroquai...with Jay Kay as their leader

they not just making some great music they also care for this earth
and their music not just about love...but also about all things that happened on this world..the war...the hunger over the world..political message..love
for the human and earth..
I collected all their albums..from the first album till the latest.

And it's not easy to found a friend with same interest as me back in that day.
I have nobody to talked about this band..just kept it to myself,

until one day on 1999, Dolly Pasaribu, a new friend in college had not only same sure name with me, he also love Jamiroquai!
We like to listen to the music together in his car and discussed the
latest news from the Jamiroquai's site..we both a huge fans of Jamiroquai.
I even always use "cosmic_girl" as my nick name on the internet,
on my email too

And after 12 years of waiting, I heard Jamiroquai is coming to town!
I almost jumped from my chair and I booked the ticket right away..

I don't care how much it'll take to watch them live on stage!
I booked ticket for the show, I booked airline ticket and pack my things and go


It held on this new stadium Sentul City Convention Center on Jakarta, April 8th 09..
Fortunately I have my junior high's friend, Dita, watched the concert too..but she on F-class, I'm on D-class...well, dat's okay..as long as they don't cancel t
he concert because on day after the concert there's an election day..
But, thank God...the
show still go on...


When I finally sat in the stadium, I still can't believe it...!
It's just a moment away I will watch him liv
e on that stage!


And the time is come!
There he is...take my breath away...
the show opened with the song "For the kids", this is the list ;
1. For The Kids
2. High Times
3. 7 Days In Sunny June



4. Allright
5. Little L
6. Black Capricorn Day



7. Use The Force
8. Travelling Without Moving
9. Cosmic Girl
10. Space Cowboy
11. Canned Head
12. Love Foolosophy

13. Deeper Underground
(Too bad he didn't sang "Virtual Insanity"..)

It was quiet well at the beginning...but when they reach the 3rd song, people on the E and F-class get hectic and they trespassed the line and go to the front row!
Wow...what a crowd there...
well I'm not suprised because u know the ticket is not cheap for some people it's expensive especially for students..so I didn't blame them for trespassed the line..
and the crowd get more crazy when Jay Kay sang "Cosmic Girl"
Well, it's officially a theme song...=)
I saw the crowds go forward and it seems that Jay Kay like it that way...
he seems prefer a crazy crowd than a polite one ;)
because he said "that's more like it..!" to the crowd in front of the stage...
And when he finished "Love Foolosophy" they all go back stage and said "thank you"
What?? That's it??


Then the crowd yelled "we want more..we want more!!"
It's take 10 minutes more then they all come into the stage again and sing the last song "Deeper Underground"...then Jay Kay wrapped the show with said
"thank you, Jakarta..! See u on my new album next year!!"
And still it felt like a dream for me saw him live on stage...
I just can't get my eyes off him..watched Jay Kay dance
What a performance..and I just can't stop dancing too...didn't care about the people surround me...I just wanna dance away with Jamiroquai,
coz I thought.."well..I didn't come all away here for just stood and watch..I just wanna enjoy this concert, no matter how crazy I am for other...well I don't care..! I've been waiting for this for 12 years!"
If others still have a chance to take picture, well I didn't...
It's too precious for me to skip the moments
I only take a few video just because
my friends, Dolly and Lia can't make it to the concert and they asked me to upload the video on the internet..
well there you go, guys..enjoy this =)
And for you, Jay Kay...I am sure we'll meet again, maybe on UK??

Cheers,
