You wouldn't have believed it. A concert in a hotel room. Goh Nakamura and friends played music to over 20 something folks in a room. I can't believe it didn't cause problems. They played till 3am. There's a lot to say about a room concert like this and honestly, I could never give it it's due here.That's Goh

You wouldn’t have believed it. A concert in a hotel room. Goh Nakamura and friends played music to over 20 something folks in a room. I can’t believe it didn’t cause problems. They played till 3am. There’s a lot to say about a room concert like this and honestly, I could never give it it’s due here.That’s Goh I didn’t catch their names but they sounded great. The latter part is Goh doing Wouldn’t it be Nice by the Beach Boys. When I get the names of the folks in these pics… I’ll update it. (Sadie and Han from The Invisible Cities)She was great too, and in a room so tiny, I should have caught her name, but songs were going back to back. But she was a runner up at Kollaborration. She sounded great. (Jane Lui) Anderson Le from HIFF gets in on it and sings Rush’s Tom Sawyer, using his Blackberry to get the lyrics. This is what the room looked like. I got there at 1am, and stayed until 3am.

This is the outside of the Castro Theater in SF. That's the Toyota Matrix. Parked in front. I swear the rims on this car are huge making those tires look tiny. This theater seats 1400 and Dirty Hands, the David Choe film will be showing here Saturday. I'll be there. Tonight I saw My Dear Enemy, a Korean film that opened up the film festival. I don't know if I loved the film, but people had a great...
This is the outside of the Castro Theater in SF. That’s the Toyota Matrix. Parked in front. I swear the rims on this car are huge making those tires look tiny. This theater seats 1400 and Dirty Hands, the David Choe film will be showing here Saturday. I’ll be there. Tonight I saw My Dear Enemy, a Korean film that opened up the film festival. I don’t know if I loved the film, but people had a great time. This is Sheldon, my director of The Dwelling.That’s Cynthia Otteson on the left. What were they looking at? Shinae Yoon and Anderson Le, part of the film festival world of party people. Do they actually work? I swear a drink is always in hand. Anderson from the Hawaii film festival and the LA Film Festival and the VC Film Festival is looking rather dapper. Shinae has powerful dimples. This is what film festival programmer types look like. Janine who once worked at GRSF. She reps really great candy, from uhhhhh. Forgot the name of the brand. Damn… I can’t say I’m part of the team. But this is the HP Mendoza posse. He has a film in the festival called Fruit Fly. Click on the link to see a trailer. It’s an Asian American musical! It’s sometimes the Rich Wong posse. He’s the cinematographer, but he also makes films. Last year, it was the actress, Ling Li posse. What a trippy link, I guess she also models. She looks smashing. (old school word). My cousin Goh Nakamura. Glad to see people loving his music. He handed me his new CD. Click on his link to hear him. CHECK OUT this post from last year. I’m alarmed at how long it is, but it has some of the same folks in it. One year flies by so quick. CHECK OUT the post from opening night last year. One big difference was no dim sum. Budget cuts? There were tons of people at the Castro theater tonite. Minor video. But you can see the organist at the Castro with the Giant Robot slide popping up.
