What a great way to end the weekend before I prepare to work 11 days in a row (working the Memorial Day and Thanksgiving holidays this year, but that means I don't have to work any of the other federal holidays). The evening started with a nice catch-up over Ethiopian food in Silver Spring, MD with a friend from grad school. We had the same advisor and he is now based out of the US but still has an orangutan field site out in East Kalimantan (Indonesian Borneo). One of these days I have got to get myself back to the Indonesian forest and would love to visit Wahea.
After dinner we headed over to The Fillmore Silver Spring for a live Scott Bradlee's Postmodern Jukebox (PMJ) concert. The group takes modern songs and gives them a throwback twist that can really only be properly appreciated by watching some YouTube videos.
One of PMJ's many encore performances of the night was "All About That Bass":
One of my favorite vocalists was Maiya Sykes; here is a live version of PMJ's cover of "I Believe in a Thing Called Love" featuring Maiya:
