What can I say...

It was amazing. Manu Chao and Radio Bemba Sound System at the Commodore Ballroom last night. So much energy, nobody standing still (in the audience or on stage). Not a brilliant idea to decide to wear sandals (think mild mosh-pit in the first twenty rows of people, minus crowd surfing) and apparently, the laws against smoking indoors don't cover marijuana, but nonetheless, a truly unique experience. Lara and I came out of there with tired legs and big smiles!

Here's a video that comes pretty close to what we were experiencing, although we were much closer to the stage. I love it, check out around 3:35, guys jumping on stage to dance with Manu and he turns the security guys away. He loves his audience, I don't know how many times he thanked and applauded the crowd, he shook hands, he came back four or five times for additional songs after they finished, the show lasted over two hours with no intermission!
