At first I didn't know that these guys were gonna take a
concert in Jakarta. My sister in-law told me that they'd be holding a show at May
22 this year. Boyzone is one of my favorite boybands when I was a teenager. I
looked for the tickets but it turned out we run out of presale tickets (yea off course, you were late to know the news as well so yeah) so I had to look at
kaskus forum to get the tickets. Luckily I found the buyer who sold the
tickets as affordable as the presale ones. Yeayy!!
I went to the Istora Senayan at 6.30 pm. The crowds were
already flooding. It is funny since the audience who watched the concerts share
the same age with us hahaha. Probably they also wanted to reminisce good old
days as we did when they were in the 90s. We already got into the venue at 7 pm
and the show started soon.
Boyzone brought several new songs and many old songs as
well. The show went into sorrow when they sang several songs that were sung together
with the late Stephen Gately. Unlike their golden era where Ronan Keating
dominated most of the singing parts, now they share equal parts of singing. They
brought like 22 songs, including 2 of Ronan’s hits Life is a Roller Coaster and
When You Say Nothing at All. I, and probably most of the audience just couldn't go back to the reality that we missed those good old days in the 90s after attending this very concert. I rate this show 7.5 out of 10 since they still
maintain good vocals and are still solid.
