3/29/2007 ~ Ziggy Marley

Listening to the Wizards vs. 76's game.

I went to the Ziggy Marley concert on Tuesday night with 2 American co-workers, and we started the evening off at the classic Blue Frog expat hangout bar. In true happy hour form, we got our 2 for 1 drinks delivered together, and ordered onion rings and nachos and Blue Frog burgers with fries.

The Yunfeng Theater was rocking! I didn't know there were that many westerners in Shanghai, but there were several Chinese fans dispersed throughout. The Jamaican flag was flying, rasta hats added color and from the very first note, the crowd was up and dancing and no one sat down all evening. Ziggy played most of his classics from his Melody Maker days, as well as playing a classic Bob Marley tune almost every other song - like War, Get Up Stand Up, Concrete Juggle, Positive Vibration, No Woman No Cry. His encore was 2007 Grammy winning Love is My Religion.

A fun evening was had by all. One Love!
