Guess what?:  Slank prepares to rock Jokowi

J

AKARTA: Slank has prepared a special song for the Salam 3 Jari (Three-Finger Salute) concert to be held on Monday at the National Monument park to celebrate the inauguration of Joko '€œJokowi'€ Widodo as president.

The venerable rock band'€™s guitarist, Abdee Negara, told tempo.co in Jakarta that he was optimistic that the song would resonate with the public. '€œI think it'€™s really cool,'€ Abdee said.

Abdee hoped that Jokowi would join the band to sing the special song. '€œAt the Bung Karno [Stadium] concert [in July], Jokowi said he would not sing on stage, but he did anyway after we gave him the mic,'€ Abdee said, laughing.
