How can a 70 year old man dance and jump for 2 1/2 hours non-stop !!!! He played a 15 minute version of Funky
Kingston that was the best I ever heard.!!!
A real mix in the crowd from young people,a lot of Asians,old guys(lots of them),the rastatudes with their
tickets,locals, just everybody .I would love to see all performers put shows like that on !!!!It's hard to
believe that he was nominated for his 1st grammy in 1968.I didn't realize that it was Toots that founded the
word "reggae". '
Thanks for sharing this ot! I had no idea, of toots age, how he is full of life, and that he founded the word reggae. Learn something new everyday.!
It's too sad to hear my once beloved DeBus, turned into Bourbon Beach, and I can see in my head what you are describing how it looks now. I feel for the tourists that do not have a clue, as to the money they pay for the ticket, goes more than likely up in smoke under the blue tarp.
