Amely comes to American Samoa

Last week these guys came to American Samoa. They are called Amely, they wear skinny jeans, they play rock music, and for some reason they came to the island. Amely performed at the stadium along with Fiji, J Boog, and Lost Coast Sound.

The concert had a huge turnout. Here we are walking along the line of traffic.


The long line of concert-goers.


The crowd waiting to be rocked.


The concert wasn't bad. The bands were decent and there is very little live entertainment here so it was a nice change of pace.


It did start to rain at one point. Here are some people fleeing.

The rain eventually stopped but not before my digital camera broke down. That's two digital cameras the island has devoured.

Pictures from the weekend

We lost 2 more palagis over the weekend and had a goodbye get-together at the Peck chateau that overlooks the golf course, above.

This one featured a homemade pinata that was wrecked by John, below.
Scott, who is leaving the island, got a Samoan tattoo on Friday and here was the result.

Random shots

Chase e-mailed some random shots of me that he has taken over the year and since life is a little slow these days, I thought I'd post a few. Above, me pretending to know how to read.

In Western Samoa, Chase and I went on safari and hunted wild beach dogs, here I am with one of my trophies.

Not sure what is happening here but I seem to find it entertaining.
