Backstage at a concert of Peter Pan
Posted in Other on December 26, 2008 at 2:42 pm
In Jakarta I was invited to visit the concert of Peter Pan on 19th of october in Ancol, Jakarta. And not just visit……. I could go backstage, and there would be an opportunity to meet up with the musicians. So I went there early evening, accompanied by Sandy from Delta FM radio. Upon arrival it was immediately clear that this was a large event: a huge open area, spotlights, camera’s, the crowd slowly moving in while the band was still doing soundcheck. The entire show would be broadcasted live on RCTI tv.
Directly after the soundcheck the musicians went to a press conference, but in between there was a short opportunity for me to talk with Iwan Fals. And seconds before the concert the manager of Peter Pan arranged that a picture of me and Ariel was taken.
It was a great privilege that I had the opportunity to witness this event from nearby. My next Indonesian cover will be a Peter Pan song of course …… so don’t forget to subscribe to my blog in case you haven’t already done so.
The entire RCTI broadcast of the concert can be found on youtube, for example here
Below you can see some of the backstage pictures that I made, including the press conference of Peter Pan and Iwan Fals.
