Jakarta –
As the end of all the performers on the first day Pestapora 2023, NOAH, presents his old persona. Nothing else and nothing else, Peterpan.
“Tonight the theme is Peterpan. We play all the Peterpan songs, there is no NOAH tonight,” said Ariel from the stage, Friday (22/9/2023).
The main stage at the Gambir Expo Kemayoran was immediately packed with shouts. And yes, everyone piled up on that stage, although, along with NOAH, there were other main performers, Hindia, Denny Caknan, and Barakatak.
Returning to the stage, because the theme was nostalgia for their birth 20 years ago through the album Taman Langit, there was a bit of a gimmick on stage.
Ariel, wearing a t-shirt with cut sleeves. Yes, even though the T-shirt has the logo of the product for which he is the Brand Ambassador.
Rio Alief as drummer also did the same thing. In fact, his T-shirt says Reza.
Because of that theme, the repertoire chosen also makes it interesting to go back in time. The album Taman Langit was released in 2003, there are people in the audience tonight who have not yet been born, some are toddlers and teenagers.
Some may just feel heartbroken. There are also those who are enthusiastic about being in a band with high-level fantasies of being successful Peterpan.

Perfect Dream, Sky Garden, Erasing Your Traces, played with the original arrangements. On the screen, his old music video was playing. Inserting the faces of the old players, Andhika, Indra, Reza, and Uki.
A Bright Day for a Lonely Soul, Though Out of Light followed later.
“We want to sing the longest Peterpan song on the first album,” said Ariel again before playing the song Satu Hati.
“I’m getting older,” Ariel took an acoustic guitar and started Sally Alone. Even though the audience was of various ages, the majority knew the old songs that Ariel called ‘ancient’ by heart.
My Dreams Are Far Away. Stars in Heaven, and Friends sound a lot more fun tonight. I don’t know what the reason is. The audience was in groups, embracing each other, jumping, singing cheerfully as if everyone was in the park.
“This is another song from 20 years ago,” Ariel continued the revelry with Mask and Above Normal.
The acoustic sound of Maybe Later bewitched the audience from the front to the back. Again, memories are forced back to the heartbreak of 2004.
What’s Up With You and Can’t Be, songs that are believed to have been popular in band studios during that era. Simultaneously with middle and high school students trying their luck at various music festivals.
Try to Understand and High Level Imagination is asked to close. While saying goodbye to the audience, the song Aku & Bintang was played over the loudspeakers. Completes all of Peterpan’s repertoire.
No more dreams, because tonight is the perfect night to close the 2023 Pestapora on its first night. See you Saturday (23/9/2023) and Sunday (24/9/2023).
