my very first concert

maybe you'll say, 'where have you been?!' well for one and other reasons, it just happened. so last night was the very first time i see a real concert, performed by my favorite artists. kings of convenience it is. they came to jakarta about years ago but i didn't get a chance to see them. so last night was a big night for me.

when i saw them on stage, it was like 'is this for real?' i'm afraid my eyes have betrayed me. yet they were there, playing guitars and singing. i sang along in some songs, in other some, i just stood, closing my eyes to listen carefully to their voices. when i opened my eyes, i stared at them as if there were only the three of us in there.

i'm so glad they sang cayman island. it was their first song i listened to. i will never forget the clip, so beautifully made that i fall for it.

after show, after the crowd was less-crowded, erlend oye wandering at the foyer. he played with his ukulele, rejecting fans' request to take photograph. while playing by himself, he drew near to jens leksman who was busy giving autograph and taking pictures.

he then sat on the table, still playing with his ukulele, singing.

he sang more

his face was getting closer to mine.

his nose was only a finger from my cheek.

hah! i really didn't know what to do! should i kiss him? should i not? should i ask for a kiss? should i not? so i just froze there. and then jens lekman sang along with him. that was a real great closing for the concert.

please watch the video here if you want to see the dynamic duo.
