Went to Caribana, although I had no ticket. How is that possible? Well, my father and I were walking down to the port and met a neighbour along the way. She said she had just been and whether I wanted her ticket and bracelet. It was a "sponsor bracelet", which means you can go into the VIP "lodge". So I accepted and went in, no one noticed that I hadn't bought it. You sure have a great view from up there. No more mingling with the common folk. Just kidding, but at least no one smokes Pot up there! Filmed some of the concert. I knew ONE song, which is more than I usually do. It was Patti Smith and I have one thing to say: the main guy looked more gay than Elton John!!! The songs were good, but due to the over-the-top Bass calibration, it was rather difficult to understand what they were saying or rather singing... It was cool, missed Evanescence though; she was on yesterday or else I'd have filmed some for Stef. Oh well, if Sting, Elton John, Gnarls Barkely or James Blunt would come; I'd BUY a VIP ticket!!! I mean Genesis played so why shouldn't they? Oasis canceled a few years back, but that's "famous" people for you or was it Genesis who canceled and Oasis who played? Either way, it's bloody loud and you can hear it clearly all the way up here.
