Seu Jorge @ Bowery Ballroom, NYC | pics (part 3)
The Seu Jorge show at Bowery Ballroom on September 11, 2005 was like a play in multiple acts. The first and 6th were solo Jorge covering Bowie in Portuguese. The 2nd and 4th were Jorge and band playing Seu Jorge songs. The 3rd was an interactive stand-up percussion routine featuring the members of Jorge's band. The 5th was Jorge standing for the first time as he recited a mix of Portuguese and English spoken word to a background of music. I couldn't really understand what he was saying (except for a bit about New Orleans and 9/11), but the actor was able to make it moving nonetheless. Given the many parts of the performance, I couldn't help but separate the pictures into multiple posts. This is part three.

Off topic, but did the Japan Ska Orchestra ever play summer stage? I'll check this dude's album out for sure!

Wow - great pics!
Seu Jorge played two shows in Toronto…he did samba, funk, pagode, choro…it was pure sweetness…
I have a little blog where I translate some of Seu Jorge’s music back to english…if anyone curious…
