Reflection
DJ Biz Markie
As in Day 186 (Decades Rewind), this
show, “Decades Collide” brought back my personal memories of the fun that I had
in the 80’s and 90’s. This time the music had 3 different styles of DJ's spinning and scratching the vinyl record producing the rhythmic sound of the record moving back and forth. Markie mixed the songs and introduced them with
humor and the hip hop beat boxing rhythm.
Crowd danced, sang and remembered |
Markie unified the crowd who just loved him as he emulated a positive light. He mixed a variety of songs and genres, covering a lot of music with the use of “hooks” or portions of songs. At
one point he said, “I bet you didn’t
know that country could be so hip hop? We are all in this together”.
Everyone (including me) seemed to be singing, dancing,
and bouncing to the music. We were having a blast as the songs took us back to our memories of the 80’s and 90’s.

Gospel Brunch
The House of Blues Gospel Brunch Myrtle Beach was a bit different from the one in
Chicago. In Chicago there was a specific time for a gospel show but in Myrtle, the group “Glory” played continual sets as people ate and stayed as
long as they liked. It was a more intimate experience.

"Glory" which is made up to two groups “Jazz Etc.” and “Special Blend” were fantastic and engaged the audience sometimes entering the crowd for participation. Everyone enjoyed the positive energy.
So much good food |
The brunch food just like the food in Chicago, was bountiful and fantastic. Since it’s an all you can eat buffet, that is exactly what you do-eat it all. I met the interesting Executive Chef from Columbia who opened the first House of Blues in Boston in 1992. He was very proud of his brunch -as he should be.
