The Story Of The Experience Of Rocket Flying Groups When Appearing In Cipinang Prison

JAKARTA In an interview session on The Maple Media's YouTube channel, the Rocket Aviation Group shared their experiences when appearing in the framework of launching the Dead Muda single at Cipinang Prison, Jakarta, some time ago.

Viki said it all started with his interest in celebrating new songs in an unusual way.

"So at first it was the same as the children thinking. It's stale if, for example, make a showcase. All bands must be like that, right. We just make it different, where do we play. For example, in prison. And it turns out that we can get there," said Viki, drummer for the Rocket Flying Group.

In addition, Rey guitarist added, the process of appearing in that place is quite complicated to get permission.

"It's complicated to take care of it. The initial process happened to be inviting someone at that time. But they couldn't provide tools. Incidentally, Viki used to have a musical instrument rental, right. Yes, we just brought our own tools. It's okay not to pay either, the important thing is that the camera can enter," said Rey.

"Well, what's difficult is to put the camera into it. If you can't, dear, why do we play inside if there is no documentation. Then in the end, we make a letter of application to the Cipinang prison and the Ministry of Law and Human Rights," he continued.

When they arrived on the day of the performance, they admitted that they received various responses from the inmates at the place.

"When H-2 was like that enthusiastic. Eh, when we got to the prison parking lot, we just felt nervous. 'We played in prison, it was all the inmates who watched it'. When we entered, it was true that the band kid was made a 'wah, it's red eyes'. Yes, we're just ignorant. Luckily the atmosphere melted when we appeared," continued Viki.

"Then when we finished performing, someone said, 'Wow, it's fun, bro, because here the entertainment is dangdut and wayang. I'm also a band kid," he said.
