Around 600 people crowded the Taman Budaya (cultural centre) in Karang Panjang, the Karpan hills outside of Ambon city. The show started 45 minutes late. The band played one inspiring set of 90 minutes  and drew many responses from the crowd through hand clapping and singing along with certain Moluccan passages from the band’s Lagu Lagu album.

On he day of the concert their press conference made the front page of the Saur Maluku newspaper. The picture clearly shows how tired everybody is of the little sleep because of the travelling.

I helped out selling five Boi Akih t-shirts and some 30 Lagu Lagu CDs
