Went to Indonesia Bisa (concert) last night. It was a great experience watching the great bands of Indonesia performing (Dewa 19 and Andra & the Backbone (AATB)).

Although Dewa 19 supposed to be the highlight of the show, I think AATB stole the limelight. The audience seemed to know AATB quite well and they responded to the band the best compared to the other performers that night. I think the highlight was the duet between AATB and Jessica Mauboy on Sempurna. I hope that they consider recording this song together.

I quite like DewiDewi, one of the vocalists got a very strong and husky voice, very nice rock sound. I’ve never heard AATB songs before, they sounded better on stage compared to their recordings (well, I only just watched some of their clips on the youtube ..), their songs are quite nice. Dewa 19 was ok too, Once was charismatic as always, Separuh Nafas was a fitting opening song for them, but the songs after that weren’t that interesting (I want to break free, Sedang ingin bercinta).

I went home with a back pain (3.5 hours standing) and half deaf, but I was quite satisfied watching DewiDewi, Mulan, Jessica, Dewa 19, AATB, The Rock Indonesia all for just a mere $10. Definitely value for money. Keep on rockin!
