Toto @ Bandung, The Return of The Old Kings


Toto's Live Concert @ Bandung (courtesy of Mr. Budi Rahardjo)

Last weekend, at Bandung. Toto, the old kings, had returned and cheered up a lil bit of this broken heart. The concert was quite OK for a small venue like Sabuga. The sound and lighting system was just awesome, even though there was a slight problem with the keyboard's sound. They played old and new stuff and the crowd kept on applausing each songs. Rock on, Bandung! Me and some of my friends from Jakarta "managed" to get the VIP seats, and even moved closer to the stage at the end of the show for singing along "Africa" with other fans. Other great songs they played were "Gypsi Train","Rosanna", "Stop Loving You", "Pamela", "Don't Chain My Heart", etc. More concert reviews (in Bahasa) and pictures from Mr. Budi Rahardjo can be found here.

The only drawback is that they didn't play "I will Remember" and "Lea". I had been waiting for these songs throughout the gig, they must have forgotten to put them in the setlist (here goes I whine again..hiks). I noticed a very kewl moment on Greg's solo session. He played "I'll be Over You" in a medley style and the audience sang along with his keyboard-playing. Then suddenly, Steve joined us sang the song together. It was just lovely. Another one was when Steve "happy birthday"-ing each member of the band. It was very funny. We knew Steve fooled all of us when he did that. Big THUMB to the old rockers! But.....still doesn't cure my Incubus tragedy.
