"F-ing Native Jamiroquai"

That's exactly what Hubby said last night about 15 minutes into the Pamyua (pronounced BUM-yo-ah and is Yupik for "encore") show. We were excited to go to the concert, but we really had no idea what was in store for us. Leaving the kiddos behind with auntie was our assumed height of the evening. But then there was the great First Tap Moose's Tooth beer which can't hurt any event.

First it started with all of the Girdwood, music-starved-hippy-chicks to move down front in their swishy skirts and tiny tops with dirty hair. Always entertaining. We couldn't get a good view, so we moved to the wall where we were completely unobstructed except by the incredibly people watching. There was night-at-the-roxbury guy right in front of us who did not move his feet at any point the entire night but jerked his tall body around in every direction possible in rhythm. I'm not kidding - he literally did the Chris Kattan head bob!

My favorite part was during the intermission when Eminem played on the speakers and people were still dancing. Somehow this song inspired the 50-something couples in front of us to get jiggy and a couple about twenty feet away to have a dirty romp while the lights were up. I mean, come on! We're at a funky native pop concert in a small theater and you're grabbing him WHERE? So funny.

Here's a good way for me to help you visualize what last night was like. Add all of these things and what do you get?

Beer
Throat Singing
Funky guitar
Bob Marley
Prince
Great Bass playing
Song in Yupik
Justin Timberlake (I'm not kidding - they did a cover!)
Rastafarian Bongo player
Fan Dancer
Jon Lennon
More hot dancers
Hot singers (seriously - hubby admitted to having a man crush. And the only other guy he's ever admitted that for is Bradley Whitford. Which of course I can FULLY support.)
And no kids!

If anyone ever wants to hear a clip I'll have the music, cause Hubby just told me he's going to buy all of their CDs.
