Date: Saturday 22nd November 2008 Location: African American Museum. 701 Arch Street. Philadelphia, PA Promotions: blissphilly.com & caribbeanbeatz.com Click on thumbnails to see the big picture/entire gallery I am just updating the website when my phone rings. I look at the clock ... 10 o'clock. Shiteeee, smallie done reach. I tell smallie to meet me there. I gotta run now yes. Good thing I only going to center city.. about 10 mins away. Bliss was held downtown Philly on 7th and Arch. There is no real parking unless you want to pay an arm and leg to park the car. Taxi is only a $5 and so I can get drunk if I want!! Well smallie just call me and tell me she gone because she doh like to stand and wait on man. Say what, you win some you lose some. There are more fish in the ocean. I get there and the lines cool and I can see the 2 people at the front desk. TJJ reporting for duty. They give me my stamp and I am on my way. Bar is always first order of the day, even before coat check. I done spot one upstairs and one down stairs, very nice. I check in my coat and head back upstairs ... it's now 10:45pm and food locking off at 11pm. I done cook one sweet curry duck, not by a river, but I get a free ranging duck and I run my sink on cold water to get river vibes. In any event, I have to taste the sweet hand of the Caribbean people here in Philly ... belly full or not. Finger licking jerk, peas and rice and my all time favorite plantains. I get a nice cranberry to wash it down and now time to meet and greet the lovely crowd that came out to support. You have to understand that Philly is $10 party kind of town. The kind that you get on 52nd Street where police doh come and shut down your party even if you want to go till 6am. So now we here downtown, well dressed in an all inclusive ... food, drink and dessert. Nice of everyone who came out to support, raising the bar of our culture to a higher level. I had a nice time. Our people were friendly, the woman love to wine. This is the second time a woman call me shy in 2 months. I guess this tiger getting old or my claws getting dull??!! Big up to Dion, the wining camera woman, Stacy and Dave from radiowestindies.com and our promoter an ex Saints man doing his thing here in Philly, Kerwin of CaribbeanBeatz.com. Much love and success now and in the future. I rate this party one with loads of potential. Original
