Peter White Concert with Greg Karukus, Michael Paulo, and Spencer Day

We love our jazz and were so excited when we found out that Peter White was going to be here in concert.  Not just here, but at the Samsung Hall right across the street from our apartment!  We began the evening at Greeka Kouchina for dinner.  It didn’t take as long as we thought, so we had some time to spare.  Meandering along we found that a Barcino’s Resto Bar had just opened, so we opted to step in and have a glass of wine.  Turns out, they really had just opened, and we were their very first customers.  We had a really nice time sitting at the bar enjoying our wine conversing with the bartender...




Time was up so we headed up the escalator to the venue as the concert was at 8:00.  We should have known, however, that we are on Filipino time…the concert did not begin until 9:00 (we could have had another glass of wine J).  The music started with Michael Paulo a Filipino American from Hawaii who plays the saxophone – he could really jive with that thing!  Greg Karukus joined him on the keyboard.  I love watching him play as his face is so animated – he is feeling his music!  A Filipino singer sang two songs, and Spencer Day from the U.S. sang two songs, and then it was time for Peter White.  As always Peter White delivered – he is incredible on that guitar!  Great crowd, great performers, great time!








We walked back to our apartment near midnight not having to pay a parking fee or fight traffic.  It was a beautiful thing!
