Macy Gray

On Friday night was the Macy Gray concert here in Riga. It was great. I have never heard a lot of Macy Gray's music, but her concert was nothing but funk. She even played a George Clinton & the P-Funk All-stars cover of One Nation Under a Groove. The definite undertone of the concert was peace and love with anti-war chants. The only problem with the concert were the mosquitoes that were noticeably affecting the performers. It is very rare that we get that kind of caliber of performer here in Riga, but I hope that her enjoyment and the large number of tickets that were sold will encourage other groups to come to Riga as well.
