Also....


Jose, Gilles, but no Camille?

NOTE: New York friends, go see these people (and many other dope ones) in Central Park for free- THIS SUNDAY!!!

I was planning to go to Serbia (Niš, to be exact) to see two of my favorite music people Gilles Peterson and Jose James in concert at the Niš jazz festival, but then the television blared with news of people rioting in the streets of Belgrade....which is a city I would have to pass through. The Captain is none to keen on my adventurous backpacking to Serbia trip anymore. Anyone out there got first-hand news on the situation? I hear it was just a bunch of football hooligans, but I am in no mood to be hooliganized.

I wouldn't worry about it too much. I hadn't even heard about it. I don't want to imply that violent rallies are the norm in Serbia but probably it was just a few people (yeah football hooligans) throwing rocks or something. The press likes to sensationalize and I automatically distrust the Telegraph, anyway. If you are still worried next week you could just stick around the bus/train stations in Belgrade and go straight to Niš.
