copeland the farewell tour

 

this day was a busyyyy day -_-”

in the morning, i went to Gedung Sate and Monumen Perjuangan Bandung. i went there to took some pictures, pictures for kemana.com competition..it took me from 9am to 1pm..then i went home, and my mom asked me to drove her, and soo i went to Yogya Kepatihan, from 2pm till 5pm. and yet i had this sched to watch COPELAND at 8 pm.oh ya,while in my campus, i had this Pagelaran Seni Budaya, which i wasnt attending at all… :(

i will tell you about the COPELAND part, after Magrib pray, i went to ITB,,and somehow, i just got stuck and went to the venue at 7.45..the road to the Venue was a total traffic,, and we decided to ate in the way,,which took almost 30 minutes. when we got to The Venue, the parking lot already so full i must wasted some time to drove around the Venue just to found out that i could’t park inside and should find park outside, on the side of the streets. *SIGHS

officially, we reached inside the Venue at 9.30, and COPELAND had been playing since 9pm :((

the Venue was sooooo full, i tell you. i was AMAZED, there was soooooooo many people inside! and this is what i called crowded :

1.Priceless

2. Take care

3. Careful Now

4. I’m a sucker

5. Grey man

6. Chin up

7. Control freak : this was the song they played when i got there

27 March 2010

last Saturday, i tried to walk on my ankle boot.

here’s the picture of what it seems like :

ankle boot

 

Seriously, i love high heels, although i havent find any confidence of wearing one on my daily life. hahaha :D

im only wearing it on several occasion, like wedding, or if i walk with my parents to the mall. im embarrassed if i have to wear it when i am walking with my friends. because i will look excessive, besides i  think im kind of pretty tall among my friends, so it will only make me looks taller (bigger). haha :D

though,, that Saturday i finally wore it.. 

I love this ankle boot from everbest, but the price was soooo expensive, i dont remember what time that was,, hmm, maybe in 2009. The price was almost IDR 700.000 for a shoe, phuihh.. i saw the shoe at Metro BSM, and since then i always checked the shoe. Metro BSM do a lot of sale, you know.. so, one day, the price dropped to, hmm let say between IDR 400.000 and 500.000? i dont remember. my mother allowed me to buy it, but i didnt, because it still so expensive :(

one day my friends opened an online store, for shoe, yupp, and she told me she could made a shoe exactly like what i want *like the picture above. i could get it for just IDR 150.000, of course i didnt want to miss that chance, and so i ordered from her. in maybe a month the shoe was finished.

hmm, what should i say? sometimes if you buy things online, you can only tell how it looks, but you cant tell how it is. I mean, the thing is about, how you feel it in your hand, how well the material is, how soft it is, how fragile it is, how hard it is, how big is the real thing, and so on.. you can not tell how it is based on your senses. you can only tell when the stuff arrived, and it will be too late to cancel and you will only feel regret. hmm, it happened to me when i bought clothes online. and so i am not going to buy clothes online anymore ;D

about the shoe, since i am the one who decided on the model, i had this vision of my about it. and here’s the other disadvantage of online shopping. you could be the one who decided the model, but when the stuff was completed, there are only two options, it is fit in with your vision, or it is not. and,, if it is not, you will be disappointed, and vice versa. so, hmm, let say the shoe was good, but it wasn’t fit very well with my vision. there.

and sooo, yess, i still had this fancy to everbest’s ankle boot.. :(

but you know what? another sale was coming on Metro BSM, and yess, you’re right, the price was reduced (again) till IDR 269.000!! waaaw, i was afraid there would be no other time, and yes i did buy it :D

and last Saturday i wore it… hihihi ;)

hm, this ankle boot, i guess the heels is around 12cms tall, yes it is very tall (according to me). people tend to say that “beauty is pain”. that Saturday, i really really was going through that. hahaha.. ok, ok, personally i think it is not right, i mean, “beauty is pain”?, come on… beauty is about feel comfortable being who you are, wear what you love to wear, just being you. so it is not pain. but my feet was hurt, yes it was, because i didnt accustomed to wear 12cms tall shoe. that was it. :p

soooo happy finally have my evb* ankle boot  -rock-. i guess i will try to use it more often ;)

fyi : i already got my Copeland ticket for the Farewell Tour! yay !

the farewell tour

 

“you are my sunshine, you are my only sunshine“

as Copeland said here

and there was this announcement on 29 October 2009 :

Dear friends,

We have come to an extremely difficult decision. It has come time for us to move on from Copeland and follow other paths in our lives. We are absolutely grateful to have been able to make music for as long as we have. In the last 9 years we’ve been able to see parts of the world that we never dreamt we would see. We have shared the stage and built friendships with immensely talented artists. We’ve been afforded the opportunity to make 4 records that we’re extremely proud of. Most of all, we feel honored that people have cared so much for our band and for our art. We appreciate every listener who has allowed our music to be a part of their lives. We want to offer our deepest thanks to every individual who has supported us on this ride. It has profoundly impacted our lives.

To put your minds at ease, we assure you this is not a bitter break up. We all individually feel Copeland has run its course in our lives and it’s time for us to pursue what is next. We couldn’t end things without a proper goodbye, so we are planning a final farewell tour in the US this coming Spring, as well as one final jaunt around the world to some of our favorite countries. We are really excited about seeing you all one more time, and we hope it turns out to be the best Copeland tour ever.

It has been discussed and we are not ruling out the possibility of recording one more album sometime in the future. However, this spring tour will be our last.

From the bottom of hearts, thank you for all of your love and support.

Aaron, Bryan, Jon & Stephen

The Farewell Tour this year -as they said- will be their last. And Indonesia has come as one of their international destination. Which city you think they will attend? Yes, of course you are right, it is Bandung. 

The concert will take place on 8th May 2010, at The Venue Concert Hall – Eldorado Bandung. The ticket will cost you IDR 175.000 -no presale or early bird tickets-. And you can buy them at : Disctarra, Societie and JakartaConcerts.com

For more information : nadapromotama

actually, i feel excited since it seems that international bands are going to come to Bandung. yes because i can watch them live. although i do not know much of their songs, but i love to watch bands -that i like- on live concert. i feel rush of adrenaline while i become part of the crowd, happy, crazy, exciting. btw, that is why i prefer to watch kind-of rock bands, so i can jump, scream, sing, and dance :D

btw, if i am going to watch Kings of Convenience of 27th March, the ticket is soooo expensive i couldnt afford it.haha… so, beside the bands, what i will see is the price, the place, and then the time.

hmm, remind me to buy Copeland tickets will you? ;D
