    5 Days with CAPTURE THE CROWN



    When the two international line up of JakCloth been announced, IKTPQ and VOM, I was like oh okay, I thought that I would be just helping the main crew, tbh I don't really listen to them, but doesn't mean I don't like them.. Well 4 of us (LOfficer ID) started to pick who will be in charged for each bands. Actually, I was not too hype. Then after a while, Jakcloth announced more lines up, aaaandddd, I was freaking crazy like yeaaah, finally.. you know the feeling when you live in your dream?? I will be assisting CAPTURE THE CROWN I took this band, no matter what.  Gosh, another Quantum Ikhlas has just happened again, throwback to when I was listening to their music when I drive my bike from home-office in daily routine, and now I would be able to see their live, even I would have to get to know them.. Fortunately, the other crews of LOfficer_ID were really really lovely,, I love you guys, you were giving CAPTURE THE CROWN to be handled by me..

    Basically I never write down all the feelings and experiences with other bands I assist before. But these guys of CAPTURE THE CROWN was giving me a thrill and moment that I won’t forget. Okay, let me start the story behind my full 5 days of happiness.



    Started when I brace up myself to text Jeff as I haven’t got any info yet for their flight itinerary, and I was sending a msg right before they take off I guess, what a right time hah! Then, when I get their riders, yeaah, I believe they are all nice guys, and of course I prove it right, they are not picky, even though there are 2 person in band are Vegan & Vegetarian. 


    Later on when the first time I met them at the airport, I was freakin nervous tbh. Jeffrey Wellfare (vocal), Mitchell Rogers (guitar), Maurice Morfaw (Bass) Alec Hoxsey (drum), Kendall Johns (videoman) were soooo friendly. I feel like met the old friends, I was not in the awkward situation at that time. 
    Capture The Crown was hanging around in FX, Jakarta

    Post Concert, Day 1

    Live in Jakcloth Summer Fest 2016




    Feel blessed when I could see their live twice and look after them..  Their 1st concert was lit, even though they were playing as the 1st band and had got a problem on the mic but the crowd was getting wild, succeed!! And got more blast on their 2nd concert. Seems that played 13 songs full set was never enough for us, hahaa..

    I also was so lucky got 1 free day off during their stay. Initially, I was asking  them to do river rafting in Sukabumi, but since it will take a long drive, thus I just brought them to hang around Jakarta, dropped by at Monas - Jakarta Pusat and Istiqlal Mosque, Jakarta, Respect!!  so glad they were enjoying the short trip around Jakarta.


    had an awesome hang in Monas, Jakarta

    The other thing is I never brought my kids when I was in charge before, but I have no idea why I decided to bring kids along with my sister, nieces & nephew to stay at the same hotel and introduce kids to them, you all can guess that the boys are all super duper nice guys, esp Jeff, the most caring person I’ve ever known so far, even he was thinking to buy a birthday cake for my niece which was having birthday on that time.


    my kiddos with Uncle Jeff :p


    The most unforgettable moment was when I got to ride a bike with Jeff in a pouring rain, haha, what a sweet day lol  and of course when Jeff got me on to the stage on the middle of their set. I was just like hell nooo, can I  just run away?  Seriously Jeff was so irritating, haha lol *jk* he’s too sweet I mean.. 
    jek ojek...





    Spending 5 days with them has been my amazing experience, got an early birthday present, lil koala from Jeff and their merch as well.

    Not a problem still working on the long weekend as I was spending my days off with 5 lovely guys. It was a pleasure for me and my team of @LOfficer_ID.. Thank you so much for coming to town CAPTURE THE CROWN, sorry if there was any inconvenience happened during your stay, hope we can meet again very soon. Best wishes for your next album.  Kita teman yah <3
