The Next Table - Edited

I rewrite this after edited by my soon to be brother. Thank you Sam, now I owe you a favor.

How would you react if you and your best friend had a chance to sit so close with favorite band. Yup, our table was side by side with Valerius table . What!! Waaaaaaaaah;
I screamed silently with happiness. Peeking into my heart at that time would show it beating louder than the drum. Believe me; I was happy but nervous at the same time. 

Do you know them? Valerius is a band from Amsterdam, Netherlands. Search the name and Voila! I'm sure you'll love them just as i do. You will fall in love with Jesse, Kay, Xander, Jelte and Klaas. and you'll become addict to their songs. Just try it!!
Google yourself and i'm sure you'll agree with me ;) 

This is my favorite video clip: 



*back to that day

Two hours before heading to the Backstage Cafe in Ancol, I had a reservation for a table for two. Can you believe it, i called the restaurant and i told to the employee on the phone that i am a friend of theirs. Yes, you can laugh! I was semi laughing when i called them; Its free to giggle after all! The truth is, i felt completely crazy that day and i wasn't completely completely dishonest. After all, i am one of their facebook friend and their twitter followers. Sometimes, i send message to one of the members too. 
So, i wasn't guilty to say that, right!?

That Monday, after working, my dear best friend Dinchus and I decided to go to the Valerius show. Even though, we'd watched them the day before on September 30, 2012 at 12.00 am at SNF 2012. Do i tell you, we were on the front row? Yup, happy to standing on the front row again, again and again. 
Sound crazy huh! But that's what we are. We've waited them for over a year, so don't blame us when it comes to Valerius. We will always try our hardest to watch their live performance because it's always worth it. 

We met at TJ Bus stop, since it was near from my office and Dinchus's home. We should hurry so as not to be late. On their socmed, they said they would perform at 9pm. It was 6.3 and my friend was late.. I knew it! After maghrib prayer, the street were deserted and that means no ojek* either. (*motorcycle taxi) 
And we had to travel through half the city to be there, with all the Jakarta traffic!!
Ahhh, we didn't want to be late,  "God, please help us", we prayed.

So we took the TJ Bus at 7pm. We had to transit and changed buses for a different direction. It felt like forever on the road and our nerves worse than before. 

We did think of other ways to get there; "why don't we take a taxi, so we can be there on time". Dinchus said.
I looked at her and simply replied, "I am ok with that". 
I'd thought about that before and suggested it, but in the end had decided to drop the idea as we remembered it's the beginning of the month. We had to be wise with spending our money. We knew that we'd be broke, if we ride on taxi, hahaha.. but for them, i told you already, we always try our hardest. 

Finally, after what felt like the longest we'd travelled in our life, and I'm not exaggerating, we made it. We were almost there, we just had to take one more ojek   and voila, Backstage Cafe. Yeay!!

Dinchus, reminds me about my reservation. Hahaha, silly. I knew that, i should ask an employee, where our table was. 
The place is nice with the tables sets up on sand. The stage is huge and we can feel the wind from the beach. But don't ask me about the food, their food was awful. 

The employee gave us a nice table, not to far from the front of the stage. 
Automatically both of us looked around at the table next to ours. Empty!!!
I could see them on the balcony. I told Dinchus that maybe they wouldn't sit there, while pointing my finger to the left.

One by one, the Valerius members walked onto the stage. "Voila!" I caught them walking and showed Dinchus with my eyes.
