[Geralmente é durante a noite de Sábado, esta corrida apenas, porque na Malásia é de manha e a transmissão é em directo mas eles depois repetem. No entanto eu vejo sempre a transmissão em directo..] Yes maybe!

Looks like Sola may not do percussion in Idonesia? Also, looks like they are putting it in conjuction with some 'Rock the Vote' program or something...
Press conference about the gig and how they got Jamiroquai, etc.:
http://jazzuality.com/jazz-events/la-lights-presents-jamiroquai-press-conference/
Article is pretty long and talks about the venue and such..here is the interesting parts that I took from it...
Paul Dankmeyer said that he’s worked with Jamiroquai several years ago, and that show was one of the most exciting show he’s ever seen. Jamiroquai will come in the size of 12 personnels and 8 crews . The band personnel that will perform on stage are the iconic Jason “Jay” Kay, Derrick Ronald McKenzie (drum), Hazel Alexis Fernandes and Valerie Bernadine Agnes Etienne (backing vocals), Matthew Richard Johnson (keyboard), Paul Stephen Turner (bass), Robert Kenneth Harris (guitar) and Wiliam James Fry (percussion). “We have been trying to make Jamiroquai come for more than 5 years, and now it’s finally happening” Peter said. “It wasn’t easy. They asked for specific requirements in details. And since they have agreed, I’m sure all we provided has met all their requirements.” he added. “He will definately make people crazy, but not wild, just like how he used to do in every concerts he made” Peter continued. It’s going to be a very special and memorable concert, that’s for sure.
Jamiroquai concert will also be used as “Rock the Vote” program. Sachin Gopalan from QTV explained that music concert has been used as vote socialization in USA for a long time. “We can socialize the election, especially to first time voters through a concert like this” he said. Therefore JFP will urge everybody at the venue to vote at the next day. Another important thing, DIMI will be the opening act, starting at 20:00 and the gate will be open at 18:30 Jakarta Local Time.

The guy they mentioned to play percussrion - William Fry, is a member of Sola's group Critical Mass, so it could make sense.
I think he is a student of Sola's too,
Here's a video of him doing his thing at one of their gigs - http://www.youtube.com/watch?gl=GB&hl=en-GB&v=WLmrwmqEHxc
But I'm not sure why Sola himself wont be playing?? |

I don't know AZ. My guess would be that he had previous commitments with his side or solo projects, but I don't know.
Anyway, I don't suppose anyone could make it to Indonesia by Wednesday, but hey....the official site is giving away tickets:

Great report Deesh!
And look a competition! I hope all those in Jakarta have seen it - very short notice. Fingers crossed. (shame about the non-inclusive travel!)
