Spider Unplugged In A Class Of Its Own, Fans Satisfied

KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 27 (Bernama) — Spider proved they still have what it takes when the Mega Star Arena here roared with cheers from fans who expressed their joy and longing throughout the Spider Unplugged concert held last Saturday.

More than 3,000 fans filled every corner of the hall to witness their four beloved members perform in an intimate setting — a clear testament that Spider still possesses a timeless magic and genuine music that continues to live in the hearts of many.

Comprising Tam (vocals), Aie (drums), Iss (bass) and Pown (guitar), Spider delivered a soulful two-hour performance filled with emotion, humour, and camaraderie with the audience.

At exactly 8.30 p.m., Tam opened the show with Rasakan Resapkan, followed by Kau Saja, Kacap Terlabik, and Sumpah Tak Buat Lagi, drawing thunderous applause from fans clearly nostalgic for Spider’s unplugged touch.

Tam then reminded the crowd to continue sending positive energy and encouragement to the band for their performance that night.

“Assalamualaikum, as we’ve promised and planned for months, we finally get to meet all of you tonight. This is a historic night for Spider because this is the concert we’ve been dreaming of for so long.

“We’re grateful that after discussing with our management, they approved this idea (to hold an unplugged concert). We hope you’ll cheer us on,” he said jokingly, adding that those who got free entry were simply “blessed with good fortune.”

That night, Spider performed 22 songs, including their iconic fan favourites such as Laukku Cukup Masin, Bila Nak Saksi, Telinga ke Tulang, Mabok, Ngam Ho, Mama, and Kekal, immersing the audience in deep nostalgia.

The most touching moment came when Tam performed Jangan Kau Berputus Asa, accompanied by a heartfelt message: “Before I sing the next song, let’s not forget our brothers and sisters in Palestine who are fighting to survive. Don’t give up—keep praying.”

Spider also introduced a new song titled Sungguh Ku Telah Jatuh Cinta (SKTJC), composed by Tam and Firdaus, with lyrics written by Ahmad Farqi from Indonesia.

“This is the first time I’m performing this song — it’s very special to me. Thank you to my family for coming today; let’s share the love together,” said Tam.

The unity among the four Spider members after more than two decades was evident through their energy and harmony, greeted with endless applause.

The hall later turned into a festive party when organisers opened the audience barriers during Aladin and Cinta Dewa Dewi, allowing thousands of fans to dance and sing along in front of the stage.

The concert drew to a close with Mungkinkah Terjadi, with Tam expressing his satisfaction, describing the crowd as incredibly “sporting.”
