Last weekend I saw two amazing performances at Central and Prospect parks, respectively. The first was a free summer stage concert by Diplo, A-trak and Santogold.
Diplo and A-trak were kind of super boring. It was easily 100 degrees out and nobody was in the mood to dance to dj's for 2 hours. One girl literally passed out from heat stroke onto Bay. It was ridiculous!
But Santogold was AMAZING! She only performed for about half an hour though and it left everyone wanting more. Equally amazing were her super choreographed, matching back up dancers. I couldn't stop watching their funky fresh moves.
The next day at Prospect park there was a free movie screening of "Enter the Dragon". They opened with a really great Taiko drumming performance. It was hypnotizing. There was this ultra cute little old Japanese lady in the troupe bustin' cartwheels who just looked so damn happy that my heart got a boner... (Umm, *ahem* just forget about that part :)
Afterwards they showed the movie on the most ginormous outdoor projection screen i've ever seen. And to top that off, they had a group of live dj's and a drummer playing their new remixed score as the movie played. It was pretty amazing. Sometimes you forget how fuckin' badass Bruce Lee really was. What a shame.
This weekend my friends Yousif and Kyla were in town seperately. I got smashed drunk and rode a mechanical bull at a western bar twice! And I saw the Dark Knight. That shit is every bit as good as it's hyped up to be. Go see it now! It'll change your life maybe.
Weekends are fun...
