JAKARTA - Behind the many Indonesian musicians who participated in talking about politics on the music stage, Fiersa Besari and Nadin Amizah opened their voices about the existence of concert organizers who forbade musicians to voice their aspirations on stage.

As is known, recently a new phenomenon appeared on the Indonesian music stage, where musicians displayed the Garuda Pancasila symbol with a blue background with the caption Emergency Warning.

This phenomenon is a form of musician anxiety that sees an effort not to respect the decision of the Constitutional Court (MK) regarding the Regional Head Election (Pilkada).

Fiersa Besari, via Instagram Story, displayed a screenshot of where the event organizers asked musicians not to show things related to the latest political issues.

Message from the event organizers. Sorry, friends. There is the fate of the band, crew, vendors, and other stage workers at stake. Alias hadeh," wrote Fiersa Besari in the caption of the Instagram Story upload.

In addition, Nadin Amizah also expressed his frustration with the event organizers who tried to silence musicians not to talk about politics.

"To separate art from politics and politics from art is a repressive and stupid endeavor," wrote Nadin Amizah on Instagram Story.

As has been predicted by @wordfangs (Baskara Putra/Indies) that several events through his committee prohibit performers from displaying multimedia material with political elements. Shame," continued Nadin.
