Mawar Merah Tribute to SLANK; An All Female Ensemble

So it's still the same project as i used to be posted days ago. The All Female Ensemble formed on the initiative of Sashi Gandarum (DREW) and specifically to play a Tribute to some local or international legend musician. For this time, An All Female Ensemble named themselves as a "Mawar Merah" in regards to Tribute to SLANK (FYI, "Mawar Merah" itself is one of Slank's hit single on their 2nd studio album "Kampungan" released in 1992) get along with the young gun Music Director, Rishanda Wicaksono, we proudly presented us in UI Jazz Goes To Campus Festival 2010.

According to An All Female Ensemble previous concept, we gladly could hire some local female singer for took a part in our Slank-medley.
They are: Sashi Gandarum (DREW), Dira Sugandi, Kikan Namara, Ghea 'Idol' Oktarin, Mian Tiara, Yuyun and a 'lil sweet gimmick, FDJ DEVINA (1945MF)

Copeland Farewell Concert :(

Aaron (on something zine): "It’s just… I think the season is past for us. It’s been almost 10 years that we’ve been doing it, and it’s hard to keep the band’s profile up and have a life outside of that, have a family, have other interests outside of the band. In order to keep the band going it has to be all or nothing, and we all wanna move on and do other things and spend time with our families. Stephen and Bryan have a new band called States. And I’m sure Jon will have a band, I’m gonna start another band and do a lot of producing, so I’ll be home a lot more. I like being home."


Kind of heartbreaking. The day i heard Copeland calling them quit. HUGE BUMMER.

I have been listening to them dudes for about four years, their music had accompanied me through my early teen-ages (i was a hopeless romantic, only bunch of close peoples who notice that i am...... still, i said i was. and now you all know).
I have fond memories attached to each song on each of their albums. Thus, they are one of the reason why i would like to being in a band.

Again, to me, Copeland's music is sincere and moving. And now i have yet to see them live which has been a dream of mine. I will definitely come watch Copeland(if probably and hopefully held too in Jakarta:( ) this last tour and bid them a farewell.
I'll definitely be there.

Time and time and time will tell. Day by day. Sweet Lord! And here they are,Copeland, Thank you for considering a farewell concert in Bandung! Great pick!















Cried during the show. It wasn't a bitter goodbye thou.
It's incredibly soothing to know that it was a mutual decision between all of them and that they'll have a chance to pursue something that's entirely their own.
Aside from that,Copeland has supplied me with endless solace and constant admiration.

Xs & Os for Aaron, Bryan, John & Stephen. Bestest Luck! ♥♥♥♥

What Old is Gold : "Escape While You Can : Paramore"

Ancient Proverbs say, "Pursue Your Dream 'Til The China Land" So i substituted it to escaping for Paramore's sake. :D
It;s been almost 4 years since my first admiration for Paramore.
