JAKARTA - God Bless is ready to hold a concert on November 10 as the culmination of a series of gold age celebrations in the Indonesian music industry.

With the title Indofood presents God Bless, a 50 Years Gold Concert with Tohpati Orchestra, this concert will take place at Istora Senayan, Central Jakarta.

Achmad Albar said God Bless would appear different from the previous concert. The reason is, the concept with a full orchestra has never been done before.

This concert will be something different too, meaning that God Bless this time performed fully, and added an orchestra from Tohpati. This has never been before," said Achmad Albar during a press conference in Senayan, Central Jakarta on Wednesday, October 25.

Previously, we played with the orchestra several times with Erwin Gutawa and others, but yes, only one or two songs. Same as Tohpati, we will use the orchestra from start to finish," he continued.

In the concert later, the formation of God Bless who will appear are Achmad Albar (vocals), Ian Antono (guitar), Donny Fattah (bass), Abadi Soesman (keyboards), and Fajar Satritama (drums).

Several big names will also appear with God Bless, namely Anggun, Nicky Astria, Kaka Slank, Band Box, to guitarist Eet Sjahranie.

Kaka Slank said that she did not want to be involved in God Bless's concert this time, until finally she was asked by the management of God Bless.

"Incidentally, I was asked by God Bless' management to appear. But actually there are special signals that I sent to God Bless's management so that I was called in the 50th anniversary," said Kaka.

The 49-year-old vocalist also expressed his admiration for God Bless. He called Achmad Albar cs his role model in music.

"Great God Bless, people are still hoarding to watch the concert. And God Bless is still cool on stage," he said.

For the music arrangement that will be shown in concerts, said Tohpati, there are several differences from the album version Anthology 50th Years Anniversary. There are adjustments to the arrangement, especially when the guest musicians appear.

"When it comes to arrangement, there must be changes, for example, Kaka or Nicky Astria will play, the treatment will definitely be different," said Tohpati.

"But basically the arrangement made doesn't change the sacredness of the song, important parts must be maintained. God Bless is full of cool guitar riffs, it won't be eliminated," he added.

In addition to the names mentioned above, Padi Reborn will be present as the opening performer.
