FOUR BEARS casino, Newtown, ND show

[Tasina]

Just checking to see if anyone is going to this show? I have Dakota ONDA gearing up for this show, but they aren't on here. . They really worked during the Rosebud show last June, so we've been planning offsite again. . .

Anyone else planning to go to this show??

I'd love to go, but I'm afraid it's just a little too far for me. But I know you'll have a good time with or without us, Tasina!

My cousin Marcy and her hubby Phillip, & Beth saw them here at the Fillmore back in 2004. My nephew/son Sinte Numpa and Beth had seen them at the Masonic in feb. 05. So they were fired up to see them again, this time in Indian country, onda rez as we call it.

So they called me right after the concert and were whooping and hollaring, saying the show the best ever. . and the swag made it a great experience for them. When Numpa was passing out the buttons previous to the start of the concert, he was saying "you can wear this IF you're going to dance. . if you aren't going to dance I can't give it to you". . good plan on his part. .

When the show started they were saying 21 and over only, which was a drag because my niece Cuwe (Chew way, which means sister) couldn't come down to the front. . .and security was making everyone sit down. . .finally after a few songs, my family just stood up and starting dancing, and Numpa looked around motioning for everyone to stand up and dance. . and you see the result.

When the crowd rushed the stage (around 30 mins into the concert), kids came down to the front, so my neice did also. They rocked out for the whole time, and she was thrilled that during Heaven Henry handed her a pic. He also touched her hand when they were leaving the stage. It is her 16th birthday today, so THIS was her present. My whole family LOVED the concert.

After the 1st phone call, Beth called me again once they were outside, and I asked "have you seen IAN yet?" and they hadn't thought of it. I told him last weekend that my family would be there. . and they had a blast with him. Of course as soon as they mentioned my name, he gave a big hug to my son. They bought all kinds of stuff! and hung out with Ian, sharing jokes, etc. Y'all know how fun he is. .

Tonight when they called me again, they were still high from the show, and are talking about making it to Kansas City and Council Bluffs shows this summer. More of a reason for me to get out there :)

God bless Ringo, Henry, Jojo, Ian, Ish, Glenn, and all the crew. keep them safe as they bring happiness and healing to people all over the country.
