Hellow

Watched Java Jazz for the first time March 1 yay! Exchanged my Sunday tickets with someone so that I could go with my friends. I got to watch Maliq n d'Essentials, Raisa, some-unknown-foreign-musician, Indra Lesmana and RAN. That day was like a "finally" day haha. First, that was because I finally saw Nicholas Saputra for real! XD I saw him when I was queuing to enter the venue. Back in 2010, I (and all the other female freshmen) was kind of fooled, thinking that he'd come in public lecture at freshmen orientation in UI. But he only came out in a pre-recorded video shown and make all of us disappointed haha. Second, finally I can saw Maliq live~ Actually when they released their new album and held free a showcase, me and a friend planned to attend. But we have to canceled it because of the bad weather. So yeah, finally! I wasn't their fans though, just curious. Then RAN was like 'finally' too. Back in my 2nd or 3rd year of junior high, we'd like to invite them for our school anniversary celebration but can't. At that time we don't have enough electricity for sound systems they inquired and it was pricey to rent and such.

Oh I still have another story actually, but my introvert trait forbid me to post. So :( and that's the story~

Bye!

PS: I'll try to write more. Only 30 posts within a year is unacceptable. This year have to exceed that yeah! Plus seems I need to fix my grammar.....

XIA Junsu 1st Asia Tour in Jakarta

It. Was. Totally. A.W.E.S.O.M.E!!!!

Seriously, did he eat his CD before the concert???? Flawless performances! My only complain for him is maybe his make up was too thick? lol. He has great stamina, performed dance songs back to back, then ballads. He talked in Indonesian several times too, and he didn't sound Korean when he talked.

He said "Saya XIA. Apa kabar? Saya senang bertemu dengan kalian" (I am XIA. How are you? I am happy to meet you.). In other talking time, he asked "Apakah kalian senang? Senang?" (Are you all happy? Happy?) totally cute!! Then he also said "pohon kelapa" (coconut tree), told by his translator hahahahaha. He smiled a loooot. When he said he'll grant our 3 wishes, he did his xiah cheonsa pose, sexy dance and said "bambaiya!" hahahaha. He also said that he's been wanting to come to Indonesia, and surprised by fans know many things about him. He said he'll come again here. (YAAYYY I demand JYJ concert!!!. Ah. dammit my money T.T)

Nah, the negative things from this concert is.... it was delayed. For 2 hours. Fans supposed to enter the venue at 5PM and the concert supposed to start at 7PM. But we entered the venue at 7PM and the concert starts at 9PM. The concerts ended around 10.45 PM. Plus, I can't give my gift to him. I can't seem to find a kind-hearted crew who was willing to tell me that I can give my gift. But my friend successfully gave hers to a crew (we didn't go together though), Other disappointing things is the tickets price. Firstly, the tix sold in kinda expensive range. But seems lots of people are not buying it, so they did several promotion so we could bought the tix in lower price. But I kinda pity those who bought first, especially in festival one (I bought mine later, in cheap price). The one who bought immediately when the tix are just sold, with the one who bought with cheaper price, received same treatment. My friend regretted she bought it quickly, since the difference is much. I bought mine at Rp 300.000, while she bought hers at Rp 1.000.000. Both of us in festival. OK, I stop my complains here.

Please wait for my fancams~! 

AKB48 x JKT48 Concert

Now, I'm gonna make concert report from Japan Pop Culture Festival!

I have several fancams, but I haven't uploaded them yet. so... fancams later^^;; Not a good ones though.

IF any of someone who read this and starting to get mad, annoyed, etc just because I violated the concert rules which prohibited any recorded video or photo taken, I don't care. If I'll get banned from any AKB48 or JKT48 concerts in the future, well that's my consequences. I don't care anyway, I'm not their fan. Indonesia will not be blacklisted only because such fancams. If you think so... I think you are new in fandom world.

Okay, that's my statement (?) continue to read if you want to~


At February 25, 2012 I watched AKB48 x JKT48 concert at Balai Kartini Jakarta. I came at around 4 PM and saw there's already a long queue to get in, while the gate would be opened at 4.30 PM. I searched for my friend, D. He's that wota friend of mine, got a ticket from me. He already queued since 1 PM -.- I texted him to reserved a seat near him in the venue. He said OK. After I got into the venue, he said he can't reserved a seat.. Seems he didn't think smart huft-_- Then I asked him where he was, he said he's on the left side of VIP seats.  I thought he got a good seat in front because he queued way before me. Since I got seat at the right side of VIP, I thought our views to stage weren't that different haha. Actually I want to sit near him because I don't know much about AKB48 songs, so I can asked him about it. I aslo want to see how he fanboy over them, since I never saw that side of him though I knew him since we went to same junior high and senior high. If only I saw it.... I can make fun of him with our other friends *bad friend* hahahahha.


After getting in the venue at around 5.30PM, well I had to wait for the concert to start. Each seats (except VIP) got a glowstick. I got the pink one. Then the concert started at 6.30 PM. Or I thought so. The MC came on stage, greeted the audiences, talked about the rules, said this and that. Then she introduced Ambassador of Japan for Indonesia. He said blablabla *opening speech* then the MC let Indonesian Minister of Trade (?) to give her opening opening speech. After those speeches, the stage turned dark once again, but AKB48 still haven't appeared. So some fans provoked (?) audiences to chant "AKB! 48! JKT! 48!" (that's what I heard) on and on, till it get really loud.


Finally at around 7 PM the concert started! Everybody stood up and cheered. AKB48 opened the concert with Flying Get and sang 2 other songs (I'll list it below) then introducing themselves. After that JKT48 sang a song then introduced themselves. Then AKB48 back on stage, sang 5 songs, each sang by 3-4 members, continued with the another MCing with 3 members of JKT48 and 3 members of AKB48. Then AKB48 sang other 3 songs and close it with Ponytail to Shushu. So the concert "ended". After several minutes fans started chanting for encore, then they appeared once again, together with JKT48. The audience cheered. AKB48 and JKT48 collaborate to sing Aitakatta and Heavy Rotation, and that's it. The concert was over.

Short right? Even I haven't drunk all of my water yet, my phone battery and memory still left a lot. I looked at my phone and it was just  around 8.15 PM. A really short concert. But well, it's quite satisfying.

This is the song list. I got it from D.

2012 = Kpop concerts year?

Up till May, there's lots of confirmed and rumored concerts of Western, Kpop, Jpop and Jrock.

February 25 is Japan Pop Culture Festival, it's AKB48 + JKT48 show only I think.
March 17 will be BEAST's Beautiful Show.
MBLAQ also gonna come, rumored date is March 16.
Kim Hyun Joong *kyaaa*, I don't know it's fixed or not. Rumored it's gonna be in late March or June.
Super Junior in April. It's fixed if I'm not mistaken. On April 29.
In May, there'll be Music Bank World Tour . This one of course will consists of lots of artists. No confirmed date and lineup so far. I hope there's no artist I want to see there (so I will not want to come haha)
Shinhwa, KARA, Infinite, Big Bang are going to have a tour..... Well,  it's not like they are going to come here. But there's a slight chance they will.
May 2 is L'arc-en-ciel concert. Whoaaaa I really want to come actually. But I'm not their hardcore fans, also I don't know much of their songs. So I don't want to waste money on something I don't really like. I'm hoping to get ticket for their concert screening  in XXI (part of Jpop Festival). Let's hope if i watch that screening, I won't be tempted to watch the real concert u.u"

Okay, that's all I know so far. Gonna study for the last exam in this week *argh so lazy actually*
Bye~

[UPDATE 120302]
There'll be Korean Music Wave too! kyaaaaaaa XDDDD The line-up and date aren't announced yet, but we can ask whom we want to see to their twitter at @KoreanMusicWave @KMWinJKT.
Pray for me to be allowed to watch it, since my CN BLUE concert tix havven't refunded yet-_-
Well, I'm gonna watch it only if there are artists I want t see u.u

Live n Rockin with 2PM

last March 19, i watched Blackberry Live n Rockin Concert with thya. karena dapet gratisan~~ emang tiketnya ga dijual bebas sih.. nah performer di konser itu ada 2PM (alasan utama gw kenapa nonton), Shontelle, Taio Cruz dan Suede Gw cuma nonton sampe lagu kedua Taio sih... ya karena gw kpoper jadi yang gw ceritain dari awal ngantri sampe 2PMnya aja yak~~

nyampe venuenya di JIExpo itu jam setengah 4an.. dan itu ngantrinya udah panjaaaaang gila, padahal gerbangnya baru dibuka jam 5.  jadinya ya kebagian belakang deh nontonnya-_- setelah gerbang dibuka pun antriabergerak dengan perlahan maju. sebenernya ga perlahan juga sih, karena berantakan antriannya jadi majunya lama. selama ngantri itu ada beberapa orang yang pingsan. setelah berhasil masuk venue pada sekitar pukul 6an, di dalem tuh udah banyak banget orang. kan selama nunggu mulai konsernya ditayangin video gitu. tiap tampang 2PM muncul para Hottest teriak2 gitu. konsernya mulai jam 7 dan 2PM yang perform pertama~ kan ada beberapa kali gitu gerak maju ke depan. tapiiiiiiiii yang daerah belakang gw dorong2 gitu. pokoknya Hottest2 itu *gw ga nyalahin semua ya. yang ngerasa dorong2 aja*  eh jangan bilang Hottest deh nanti pada ngomel2 ke gw lagi. apa ya? kpopers ababil?? yah pokoknya mereka2 itu dorong2 banget. hiiiiiih pada rusuh banget deh-____-

oke jadi mulailah 2PM itu pada jam 7 lewatan. karena ada basa basi MCnya dulu. MCnya bagus sih.. Daniel Mananta sama cewek gatau namanya siapa. jadi pas 2PM muncul. langsung deh semua histeris karena ITU MEREKA SEMUA CAKEP-CAKEP YA ALLAAAAAH!! ASLI GANTENG PARAH! PUTIH-PUTIH JUGAAAA. terutama Nichkhun itu putiiiiiiih banget gw mau kulitnyaaa. oke gw ga nyante haha. dan itu bias gw JUNSU GANTENG GILAAAAAA. padahal jarak gw jauh men jadi gw liat pun harus jinjit2 n ga gitu jelas muka mereka. tapi tuh gantengnya mereka itu keliatan dari jauh! dan gw lupa di lagu apa si Taecyeon ngangkat2 baju gitu. langsung gw teriakin BUKA WOI BUKA! hahahaha yadong abis gw.

Pertama 2PM perform I'll Be Back. dan mereka perform pake kostum I'll Be Back mereka *yang tidak terlalu gw suka* sepanjang acara, walau atasannya ujung2 nya dibuka menyisakan kaos item. *ngarepnya sih topless /plakk*. selesai I'll Be Back, mereka ngomong "Selamat Malam. We are 2PM!" *eh atau kami ya? maklum jarak jauh kali aja gw salah denger* dan mereka ngenalin diri masing2 pake Inggris. "This is Taec" dan sebagainya. terakhir Nichkhun yang ngenalin diri "Selamat malam. This is Khun." terus Taec, Junsu tuh ngomong2 entah apa lagi gw ga inget n ga denger jelas karena audiencenya rusuh teriak2 mulu. Setelah itu mereka perform Heartbeat, disambung sama I Hate You. terus mereka ada ngomong2 lagi n seruin yel2 gitu. terus terakhir deh nyanyi 10 Out Of 10. dan selesai sudah performnya 2PM. mereka perform kurang dari 30 menit totalnya. bener2 kurang puas. *tapi kalo kelamaan nanti gw jadi Hottest beneran lagi. lol*
gw sih udah ngaplot semua fancamnya di youtube gw, tapi goyang2. goyangnya itu selain agak kedorong tangan gw juga pegel hehe. please check them out at http://www.youtube.com/user/codestorm501

nah sekarang giliran gw complain soal konsernya. *gratis aja ngeluh terus ckck*
gw kasian banget sama 2PMnya. mereka itu berangkat dari Korea pagi2, n pesawatnya delay jadi baru nyampe indo setengah 5 sore dan langsung ke JIExpo. udah gitu mereka perform cuma bentar n pulang lagi ke Korea jam 12 malem itu juga. gw gatau itu emang EOnya pelit atau mau JYPnya begitu. but helllooooooo itu orang gitu kerja.... capek banget kan..... kasian abis gw sama mereka. dan pas gw ngeliat foto mereka bareng Aura Kasih yang heboh di timeline gw itu, mereka tuh tampangnya keliatan capek abis.... senyumnya datar. malah ada yang ga senyum. dan di foto Daniel bareng Nichkhun tuh keliatan banget face skinnya Nichkhun jelek gara2 kecapekan *yeah kecapekan bakal mempengaruhi kondisi kulit muka, karena Youngsaeng biasanya gitu, langsung bad skin kalo capek* bahkan Junsu tuh sampe ngetweet long time no see korea gitu pas udah nyampe korea.. saking mereka mondar mandir beberapa negara gitu kayaknya.

dan please ya kpopers indonesia. tolong dong jangan brutal n rusuh dorong2 gitu. malu tau diliat artisnya. tweetnya Nichkhun hari ini tuh "Btw Thank you IndonesianHottest for such a great feedback! I hope no one got hurt!" yang artinya dia liat kita nontonnya ada yang rusuh seenaknya dorong2 ke depan. semua juga pengen liat 2PM. tapi kita kan mau liat dengan nyaman kan. jangan egois sendiri mau liat jelas. posisi gw pas nonton juga ga enak kok, ga bisa liat jelas. ga mungkin semuanya bisa ke depan kan. yah semoga kalo ada acara kayak gini lagi kita semua kpopers indo lebih tertib nontonnya. jadi para idol kpop itu pun seneng ngeliat kita, bukannya malah khawatir karena rusuh.

okay that's all my story about 2PM! wish me luck to be able to see other korean idol concert, especially when it's SS501 or CN Blue!
