Ziggy Marley

I got word from my cousin lila that ziggy marley was going to perform at one of the casinos out here. Of course i jumped all over that and planned to go. I knew we were going to have a busy weekend because tuuta was coming back thursday then the concert was the next day. We all planned to go and purchase V.I.P. tickets. Lucky me,  one of my cousins who had already purchased her V.I.P. tickets could no longer go. Therefore i was able to buy them off her. Come to find out a few days later when the rest of the crew called to get their tickets, VIP was sold out =( They just bought regular seat tickets.
The morning of the concert we all went to the mall tuuta needed to buy some shoes i wanted to go see if anything would catch my eye (hey you never know if you'll see a nice top) and siate just went to go.  I was so tired from the night before welcoming tuuta and having a little eating at their house we didn't leave until about 1am. After the mall we headed home to get ready for the concert. We left 4 hours early because I  wanted to be front row. Yea i the boys actually agreed to leave that early (thanks guys). We made it to the concert area and there was a line of about 20 ppl so we quickly hopped in line.

Then when we finally got passed the entrance i hustled to the front row right in front of the stage to find out that those seats were reserved yes i was soo annoyed!! WHAT THE..i didn't even know you had to purchase front row seats..lol..oh well we ended up in 2nd row which was still really good.

Then my cousin simi came with us to the concert this guy didn't even have a ticket and he got the hook up through one of the tongan girls who worked there! Yes this guy got a VIP pass and then a front row pass!!!Yes i was so jealous ha ha ha I wish i was cool like him where people just hook me up cause they can.
If you can zoom up closer you could see his pass says front row
Anyways so there me and my brother are sitting in back of simi just chillin then i decide to take a trip to the regular seats where the rest of our party was it was so sad they were so far away ha ha ha jk
From left to right tuuta, penili, nese (taufa's girl) and taufa. I was laughing so hard because the look on taufas face was exactly how he felt. lol, but him and siate agreed to switch passes after the concert started so he can exprience it up close. Well Ziggy kicked off the concert singing tomorrow people and it was a good thing he did because the rest of the concert was so so.

I mean i enjoyed it because i was so close but to be where taufa and them were. I would've hated it. He really didn't interact with the crowd. He would smile and wink at all of us in the front and vibe with us. But for everyone else there was nothing. Like we didn't even get any "How you doing Arizona?" or  "Sing it with me". To be honest i only knew 2 of his songs "love is my religion" and "Be true to yourself". At least i made it to the front next to simi ha ha ha and made it on the screens to where everyone saw me lol. Oh and side note 2 people asked me if i was drunk what the?! just because i'm smiling, singing, and making motions to the words that makes me drunk??!?! my brother was like i'm a witness you weren't drinking..hoii people think i'm that weak well sorry ppl i'm a changed woman!! Okkk..lol...The reason i was so excited about this concert was because he's the only son who looks so much like his dad and sounds just like him! I mean when he sang his dads song "Is this love" my heart was literally melting!

 I closed my eyes and pictured Bob Marley singing to me ha ha ha. I'm so serious!! I did expect more from the son of bob marley but hey he winked at me so that made my night ha ha ha. Sadly my phone died during the concert slow me didn't think to stop texting and facebooking to save my battery life for pics. Siate got a text from taufa saying its ok i dont want to switch off, we're gonna bounce. I was like heyyy i mean you spent $$ on this concert try to make it fun at least. They ended up leaving anyways. After the concert we ran into friends and some family so it was nice to see everyone.
Soo after leaving the casino we met up with the rest of the fam at Inn-N-Out. We just hung out and talked about of ziggy wasn't as good as we thought ha ha ha.

 It was a good night. I just loved hanging with the fams mostly =) Just a very few clips of Ziggy singing his dads music the only part i loved! I was too busy dancing when he sang is this love i regret no recording it! he he he
