Greetings,
Hope you full joy the fact that many are trodding through the crushed ice laiden paths to and from work. Imagine a frozen Margarita about 9 inches deep
Walk, skip, skank and jump good on your holiday.

Brasi January 2012 Trip Report #5
Jam Can, Killing it in the West End

hey!!!

OMMGG. This is a great trip. I have partied hard the past two days. I have probably only slept 4-5 hours a nite. I need a vacation from my vacation. Jk. HOW OLD AM I? and where do I start? I am IN NEGRIL. I love saying that.

Blur...rewind...um...ohhh...Jam Can Bar, just a few minutes walk from Seastar! On my first night I was walking by, and it was just after sunset. I ordered from the menu, curry goat. The hostess said "we don't have it tonight" and then the owner shouted out "yeh mon" from the back...a scramble ensued......they let me know I'd have to wait a bit longer for the goat...all good mon. Wow it was worth the wait. Delicious. I sat with owner guy "Crazy Nacka" after and had a few smokes and beers. He told me about the show the next night, featuring Jamaica original artists...I grabbed some video (some bad lyrics, and swears...fyi):



As I was recording this, I realized the DJ was blowing me up, in fact---they all had been killing me--I don't what it the exact lyrics are but it is political....owww...chh...boom in my face!!! haha. Some definite street feel haha.......I wish he'd offered me a chance to get back at him. You'll hear me ask in the middle, it trails off..."If you're gonna talk about me, then..." Give me the mic son. I'm not even close to a rapper, but hey. Fair is fair. LOL TIC TOC WHAT ARE THE RULES? I was too drunk anyway. haha.

This turned into a great party(9).This stage provides new acts a place to play, and I know I'll be back. Met a few musicians from town, chatted, got plastered (3-3 BABY), craziness. Anyway the shows are very Mon and Thur...guy who runs it is "Crazy Nacka" ---band was great and it's a real "jammy" thing. I even got a chance to sing in Jamaica---how cool is that? There was a guy Daniel from South Africa, jumped on guitar, and he played a mess of tunes with the Jam Can Band. Good stuff.

Enjoyed the day today chilling at the pool (1), hanging a bit with the boardies, now gonna take a nap(1).

RANDOM: The chicken fingers(1) at Seastar were my lunch today, really good.

I have two more days here....then on to Belmont.

I'm sliiiiiiiding in to this thing. haha.

I have not gotten "in."(0)
