Sorry, haven't been checking here much lately. Been hectic!
Anyway, I'm flying to Cali, Colombia tomorrow, and will over the next 3 days make my way by bus to Bogota for the concert on Sunday! If anyone reading this will be there, feel free to email me here: yoderm AT gmail DOT com
Would be very cool to meet up with someone beforehand.
It's pretty crazy, I almost couldn't make it. I had to get a new passport, a new Ecuadorian visa, a new Ecuadorian censo (like a US green card), and a new salida (permission to leave). I just got my passport last Wednesday. Turned it in for the visa Thursday morning. Just got it back this morning, and I spent all day in a stinking immigration office to get the censo and salida! Aaaargh!!!!!
But praise God, it all came through, just a few minutes before the place closed at 6PM! So I think all hurdles have been cleared for departure.

Have a great trip, Micah - make sure to introduce yourself as one of the Admins for the INFAMOUS Zone!

With Micah gone...there will be a power VACUUM! OH NO!
Ok, remain calm...just go about your business like he's always there.
Yes...that will do.

I spoke to Greg Bailey after the show in the Netherlands (December 4th) and he thought the show in Colombia was cancelled... I hope for Micah this is not the case. Of course management knows these things better than the band, so there's a good chance Greg was misinformed.

OK....
I assume Sue would have some idea of that, and she just emailed me something to give John.....
I also heard someone in Ecuador say they heard some advertisement or something for it there. And that was just a week or so ago.
Anyway, travel is going well. I just spent last night in a nice mini resort on a coffee farm!

Aaargh. The number given is a cell phone, and they didn�t answer when I tried.
Worse, the H2O page of Petra concerts lacks this one .... and the Google cache has it! So apparently they removed it from the list! That is seriously uncool ... I would expect that H2O has the authoritative list, right?

GAAAA.... was at the Plaza de Toros 20 minutes before the scheduled start of the concert, and no sign of activity.
Is there a prize for traveling to guerrilla infested countries to see Petra, only to have it cancelled when you get there???

That is rotten.
And a PR blunder.

Oh Micah - that is terrible.
No, I didn't know it was cancelled... management doesn't relay any info to me.
I'm SO sorry.

Unfortunately she is.
It's good to "see" you (or your posts anyway) Brian; it's been awhile.
