In the dead of night!
You know it's really amazing that in this little country of violence, where people shudder and drive painfully slow when it rains, that they would come out of their house in the dead of night! Well yesterday when Jamaica experienced its all island powercut (God knows why), the plans of many a night owl Jamaican were changed...well maybe not so many from what i saw. There was Special Delivery out at Caymanas for $3500 preseold and $4500 at the gate (conveniently for the promoters all the persold tickets were sold out; well it was convenient before the powercut), and there was Arabian Nights featuring the amazing Tessane Chin and Rootz Underground.
I was so uncertain if anyone would even consider having a function in pitch blackness that my brother went out first to see if it was really going on, then he called me. Well to our surprise, Norbrook had light (where the concert was). They also had Police and security and tonnes of cars on the sidewalk. I guess u can't cancel or postpone a Tesanne Chin concert can you...or Special Delivery for that matter. And i guess certain areas will get back light first (bitter huh).
But i was happy nonetheless cuz i was gonna see Tessane perform and that's always a treat. An you know any all- inclusive function put on by these people is gonna be legit! Island Grill, Curry goat, Chocolate fountains with dipable fruit (yummy), and a nice audience and Copppershot on the 1s and 2s.
But now that i'm telling you about what i didn't intend to, the focus of this blog is dat people in Jamaica will do almost anything for their entertainment. This country nuh boring at all. An for all those who tink it is, is you mek it boring for yuself. Nuff tings here fi do, and nuff nice peole to do it wid. Da country ya full a vibez and mad peole weh love lef dem yaad in all islan' powercut. But God bless Jamaica...wi vibes lan' out a many one people!
