a number of years ago i went to bali in the early 80's to be exact there were batak bands playing in almost every hotel bar and resturant. there members were interchangable but however all wonderful for entertainment. one particular band that played at the bali sanur bungalows were a favourite of mine. ( ONLy because i fell in love with the singer and at one stage contemptated leaving australia and pernamently living in bali) heard over time that they also were at Nusa Dua in the indra hotel. was wondering if anyone has heard of them since i have been back to bali many times but each time do not hear of these bands now. mostly they sang and played the guitar. am particularly interested to see what happened to someone called Freddy Amato, i know this is not a balinese name but it is unique.
