Is it the whiskey?

So spent another 2 or so hours straddeling the furniture in my Chita hotel room, with Sir G bringing the whiskey and the camera, and a good dose of sillyness.
What was all sophisticated and mysterious in January...
... turned into Junkie-chique and breaking shower glass in May..


by the time it's end 2007 i fear where it will end.
Sir G, thanks for a laugh. Oh and erase all those other 300 'near-misses'..
Don't distrust your talent. ;)

The Summer Sun Mek da Music Come
gosh it's nice to be home.
a warm welcome, and the sun is shining. never mind the pollen plague, a little sufferin by contrast makes me enjoy more.
Takin a day off from work and lookin through what the next few weeks have on offer, and lovely it does sound:
- a good start with Reggae pon di Beach comin Sunday eve, starting with about 4 hours to go till the sun sets big and red one the horizon, the place where the sky hits the end of the sea in the very distance, location: our very own tropical Hage Beach;
- friday 15th, a choice choice of either some Portuguese/Friesian Fado mix-up, beautiful melancholic sounds, of the nostalgia type *OR* another visit to the Lion of Roots, always an inspiration, always healing food for the soul, always putting whats important back in perspective. And a chance to bring the lovely Dienster out once more? :) Burning Spear, live inna Amsterdam.. ay ay, what choice choice;
- followed by a little Puerto Rican/Belgian mix-up with Gabriel Rios on the 17th June, watch my sis' in law swoon over this cutie, am looking forward to that too!
- after that i don't even know what to pick from.. comin up in the neighbourhood: Israel Vibration, Wayne Marshall, Morgan Heritage, Anthony B (again!), Ziggy Marley, Stephen Marley & the Congos (nice!), Groundation, not even begginning to mention the all star line-up at this year's Reggae Sundance (also on a beach!);

anyway, was surfin, and feeling happy for all the music comin my way.
Felt like sharing the joy :)
Bless, saskia
