urban jazz crossover 2012

it's here again! it was early! (compared to last year :p). when i saw the billboard on the road, i thought it was another jazz concert considering the late-coming concert last year. but when my colleague asked me to go it was confirmed that urban jazz crossover 2012: jazz the way you like it is coming to town!

first off, i'd like to take a paragraph to thank yenty for queuing up for tickets and begging for them when they were all sold out. billion thanks!

this year, the security got tighter. no cameras is allowed! can you imagine that?!? that's the reason why i don't have pictures to brag, just this cool mug picture. however, without that taking-as-many-as-picture activity, i guess i enjoyed the concert more.

jazz experimented with keroncong, indonesia's traditional music, this year. intan soekotjo couldn't emphasize it more, she's definitely  the queen. her voice is amazing. although keroncong was being highlighted, i feel more jazz. this year was jazzier than last year's, personally.

last night, dj odotto warmed up the floor with his club house music. then came kyriz boogieman rocked the house with his rap. followed millane fernandez, andien, barry likumahuwa (he's totally cute!), yukie "pas", the legend harvey malaihollo, indra lesmana, rieka roslan, tompi and bayu risa made the best jazz concert ever. and thanks to vicky sianipar and the band. it's awesome!

so glad yenty and i keep this tradition. going to urban jazz crossover concert totally will be a routine ^^
