JAKARTA - Agustinus Gusti Nugroho or better known as Nugie, chose not to question the riders too much or requests from musicians to the organizers or promoters of music concerts.

As is known, riders are excessive from musicians or bands, especially for those who are young and currently famous, it has become a hot topic of conversation on social media.

This stems from Ari Lasso's upload on social media which said that several young and well-known musicians actually became 'aji while' when applying for riders to the promoter.

Nugie himself claimed to have heard of several musicians implementing quite difficult riders. But he sees it all depends on the agreement between the organizers and the musicians.

"I've heard that there are some people who, for example, have to have their own plane. Yes, it depends, if the committee wants it, please. If you don't want it, that's okay," Nugie told the media crew in Kemang, South Jakarta, Monday, July 14.

"Actually, the riders can be fulfilled or not fulfilled, depending on the agreement with the committee. And if it's for me, I don't want to be like that, I want the deal to continue, don't let it be a deal," he continued.

The younger brother of Katon Bagaskara also saw the implementation of excess riders, perhaps the musicians applied it to see the readiness of the organizers.

For him, the way these musicians do not need to be questioned, considering that everyone has their own uniqueness.

"Maybe that's a way to sort out venues that are ready to call him," said the soloist who is also a member of The Dance Company.

"For me, there is no problem. It depends whether you want to be called or not with the committee. So, there's no need to make polemics, because each human being is unique," he added.

Although he did not blame the riders too much, Nugie admitted that he had never asked for anything that made it difficult for the organizers.

"I myself sometimes called an event where the place is very exclusive, so there is no smoking area, so I have to find a solution, the important thing is that I can deal," said Nugie.

"The important thing is that there is a solution, especially for 90s children, we are used to it... the important thing is to perform," he concluded.
