    I just picked up Orchestra seats for Faux Rillz and I. The wine spritzers will be flowing. Believe that.

    Damn! Where was the Fruko show? Too bad I missed it, oh well...

    So far I caught the Richie Havens (not bad for an old man), and Rewind: South African Cantata (taken from testaments to the Truth and Reconciliation Comittee after apartheid, really powerful, a lot of people cried listening to the testimonies) bill. I saw RAMP and Cinematic Orchestra, wifey would've rather sit under a tree and drink beers at Central Park than watching 77 drummers, too bad the pictures looked interesting. But it was the better move as I doubt my wife and kids would've wanted to stand in line for a long time, to then maybe not be let in. Saw the Brooklyn Philharmonic on Saturday night, they were good, really cohesive.


    Next up:
    Saturday July 28, Boricua Festival with Tito Rojas and the Joe Cuba Sextet! and some other people

    Sunday July 29, Wild Style 25th Anniversary Reunion
    The Chief Rocker Busy Bee
    The Cold Crush Brothers
    GrandMaster Caz
    DJ GrandWizzard Theodore
    Fab 5 Freddy + special guests

    August 4: Spanish Harlem Orchestra
