@jkalpram - Oi lucky you!. You're like me. Everytime I am home I just have to catch one or two or more Bamboo band gigs.... and I am always right up in the middle of them. Sometime I think folks back home don't realise how sweet their music is. I guess they live it. Its addictive, uplifting and when played in the right setting..simply unforgetable! Hey, get some videos and post them from there...Em nau, Enjoy your holidays!
