Java Jazz Festival


Java Jazz 2010
Held at Pekan Raya Jakarta (PRJ) - Kemayoran. Different Java Jazz Festival situation here. I've Came with my friends Nico, Vivi, Adi and My sister Leny. There're lotta people and really damn crowded, not absolutely good JJF at those year. Indeed, I didnt really like stertorous situation like that. Because we've got tired with the tremendously stuffy crowds and couldnt feel what jazz music really showed to us. wasn't like JavaJazzFestival before at Jakarta Convention Centre, the situation was really couzy. And at that moment, President SBY had came to the festival, he and his wife with all the bodyguards were made the situation more and much messy when they watched Toni Braxton live! Pshaw!


Toni Braxton with us, rightmost. lol

Java Jazz 2008
Was a great feelin to saw Java Jazz Festival 2008 live. The Artists were so wonderful incognito, Kazumi Watanabe, Great Guitar Maestro Lee Ritenour, and so many more international artist playin some wonderful music there. Not only from international, very talented local artists were participated such as Ran, Maliq D'Essentials, Ecoutez with their nice song "Percayalah", Glenn Fredly which has done some tribute to Chrisye, they are enough to make whole my body until my brain moved..yeah! absolutely 'godamnsupermega foxyawesome!!'
My friends and I have a really pleasant day to watched a bigest Jazz festival in Indonesia. it was different Java Jazz Festival between JJF 2008 with JJF 2010 or 2011, because at 2008 JJF was held at Jakarta Convention Center same like JJF 2009, but JJF 2010 or 2011 was held at PRJ-Kemayoran, and make the Jazz felt lil bit different. I dont know why, but i just think that is too crowded in PRJ, doesnt make a good Jazz feeling, like Satchmo said when inflatable his trumpet, all the music streaming through his sense, body, until release sweat to flow and fly in the music rhythm. 
I was really felt lil bit like "eargasm" when the music start.

I've taken some bad shot, taken too far away from the gigs.
