Last night Jay and I went to a Boney M concert with our Japanese friends Yoko and
Hiro. Never heard of Boney M? Neither had we until Yoko loaned us a DVD of some of their concerts from the late seventies through the eighties that she bought from a bootleg DVD stand in Korea. They are, how to say? Maybe something like pop-Afro-funk-space-travelers? We had no idea they were even still performing so when Yoko and
Hiro invited us to the concert we couldn't say no. The concert was really fun even thought Boney M replaced 2 of their original members and their costumes were a little toned down from what they wore in the 80s. We decided we should dress up a bit too, although we learned after arriving that this is not the Korean thing to do...apparently just the American and Japanese thing to do. Here is a Y
ouTube video of one of their famous songs, Daddy Cool.
