The Indo Endo

This morning I made my traditional avocado smoothie so super-thick that when I accidentally knocked the glass over onto my computer, nothing spilled out.

With that said, I’m feeling lucky today. It’s our last day in Asia as well, adding one last performance in Indonesia onto our lengthy country-hopping sing-a-long showcase.

I had never been to Taiwan, Hong Kong, Malaysia or Indonesia, but somehow they all felt like home. The reception we received everywhere was astounding. More than that, it was downright weird. And not because I saw monkeys dressed in clothes riding a moped, but because I never thought my little love songs would translate into such large arenas. And I never would have guessed I’d be able to travel the world as an ambassador for peace and love, leaving the lessons of gratitude in my wake.

Here's a picture of the arena in Kuala Lumpur before it was filled with friendly faces. It was originally designed and built for badminton.



Thanks to the many thousands in attendance for bringing your singing voices and your dancing shoes. Thanks to my gorgeous Lucky duet partners across Asia: eVonne Hsu in Taiwan, Penny in Malaysia, Fiona Sit in HK, Joi Chua in Singapore, and Dira here in Jakarta. I'm so Lucky to share the stage with so many.

Thank you to all the hardworking crews who make these shows possible. And thank you to all the office nerds who put in long hours back home to keep our little saucer in orbit. We’re a rag-tag group of musicians and techs who are so lucky to have been given this opportunity. Not only do we not want to let you down, we would rather not come down at all.


谢谢 & Terima kasih banyak,
Jason Mraz
