Woke up early this sunday morning...my body still felt heavy since my energy is drained for the rehearsals in friday and saturday but I got up and went to my studio. There supposed to be a recording schedule at 10 am and I still need to set up something for it. But let's read my life in last week.
The start of the week there was nothing special, we continue our work to promote Jever and so on. One good news came to us on Thursday that according to IMport (the digital music provider in Indonesia), Jever's song got to the top of the download chart! The quantity wasn't much but the point is, with minimal budget and promotion, Jever's song could surpassed 3 Diva's, a well funded famous female trio. For us, the production team, though it's not over yet it is a sweet victory over the difficulties and obstacles we had during the start of this work.
Next day, Friday, I had rehearsal with Jever and the band for our upcoming appearance in Indosiar on next Wednesday. The rehearsal was much more better than the previous one but we started very late, plus our bass player had to leave not long after we start for emergency reason. So we continued without him and surprisingly turned out very satisfying.
On Saturday, again the rehearsal started late because my friend, the producer, had to go to his doctor. But after he came, the rehearsal started smoothly and we also had the chance to do some intermezzo by playing some other songs. It was fun!
The rehearsal ended around 6 pm and gosh...I felt so tired but happy. After everyone went home, my wife and I were still in my studio, cleaning up and setting the wires for recording on Sunday morning. At 12, I left the studio and went straight to sleep.
Sunday, 7 am, I got up and get done with everything else left unfinished the other night. I checked the clock and only 15 minutes left to 10 am. So I just wait, wait and wait, wait again until it was almost 11 am!
Uh well, I guess they just canceled the schedule without even bother telling me. Hahaha...typical indonesian and also negative eastern culture. To think about it, I've even wasted my cell credits to tell them exactly where to look for my studio...sigh...
Having nothing to do, I returned to my room and continued my sleep and woke up around 1 pm, having my lunch and dessert, then wrote this blog....
