Can You Say Busy Bee?

Oh my goodness. I wrote a blog about the African World Festival but somehow it disappeared.

Oh well..

I decided to re-draft the entry.

A vendor has a nice selection of books and novels.

*Testing the video application on Blogger, so please forgive me if the quality isn't the sharpest.*

Last week I attended several different concerts.

Tuesday: Java Jazz at the Main Library... The concert feature Karriem Riggins and company. The musicians combined a rich blend of classic sounds with hints of hip hop and funk.

Here's a link to Karriem's website...

Friday: I headed over to the Chrome Lounge to rock out to the sound of The George Brothers. George Brothers played a mixture of blues, soul and rock.

Check out the link below..

Saturday: Rocking and winding at the African World Festival. I could not express how excited was to hear some reggae, eat plantains, and see tons of my fabulous friends.

Sunday: Finally, a dream of mines came true..to meet Dwele in flesh.

 After winding, practicing on my

punta skills as well...

 I knew that I could not attend another concert this week.

However after viewing online that Rachell Ferell and Dwele would appear at the African World Festival. *screams*

I had to muster up some energy.

(There also was another band performing called Universal Expression. .)

Of course it was worth every ache in my bones...

Here are some moments capture by my little camera:

I didn't mean to take this photo but it made a cool effect....
