That's just wrong...

I've mentioned before that every Wednesday bands come and play in City Center during lunchtime. Today was a pretty good band that sounded like a sort of Punk/Ska/Reggae mix from what little I heard as I walked through.

They finished up their set with "No Woman No Cry" by Bob Marley and did a pretty good job of it. Yes they were white, but it worked. No slo-mo-Irwin happened on stage from what I saw.

What I did get to witness though were two obviously gay guys dancing along and enjoying the song a just little too much...

White people + reggae = funny!

Every Wednesday, City Center in Oakland, CA hosts a live band to play during lunch.  Today it was a reggae band from San Francisco.

Reggae music makes you want to move.

White people can't dance.

Fortunately I was able to escape with just a few taps of the toe.  Unfortunately there were several of my fair-skinned bretheren who fell victim and were ensnared by the rhythm.  It reminded me of Steve Irwin dodging the attacks of a dangerous pit viper played back at about 1/4 speed. 

I need to remember to bring my video camera on Wednesdays...
