David Guetta Live in Concert in DC

January 12, 2019 by KChie Leave a Comment

David Guetta came to DC and I just had to go see him in concert! He played at Echostage. I saw Tiësto there in March 2017. Why is it each time I’ve gone to Echostage it’s freezing cold? Sigh. Unlike with Tiësto whose work I do respect but don’t necessarily love, I’m a true bonafide […]

Tiësto at Echostage

April 20, 2017 by KChie Leave a Comment

Braved the cold last month to go to Echostage to enjoy “the greatest DJ of All Time“, Tiësto, perform. He’s legendary. It was a crowd a bit younger than myself, I will admit, and given my chronic fatigue these days from a too busy workweek, it was a crowd with more energy than I could ever […]

Stromae Live in Concert in NYC

October 3, 2015 by KChie Leave a Comment

My cousins in Belgium tipped us on Stromae a couple years ago and then about a year ago told my sisters and I he would be coming to the US and that we must go to his performance. I bought my tickets for his Philadelphia September show back in February, only to learn in August […]

Dancing with Angelique Kidjo

March 1, 2014 by KChie Leave a Comment

In the midst of a busy week, I decided to take a break and go see Angelique Kidjo in concert. She’s a Grammy award winning singer from Benin to whom I was introduced by way of her song Batonga! back in the early 1990s while still in Ghana. I remember thinking back then that it […]

Recuperating in Boston

March 16, 2012 by KChie Leave a Comment

Afternoon Tea @ the Taj The last several months have not been going according to schedule at all. There was supposed to be a light at the end of the tunnel – a blueprint of sorts for the grand escape and so far all I have is disappointment. To make matters worse, the work-place is […]

Randomness Music

December 31, 2007 by KChie Leave a Comment

Weird and KChie are essentially synonymous – at least family and friends make it seem so. As I surf the web and record my thoughts, I’m listening to my fave songs on random shuffle on my YP-T9, yet to fill up all 4GB I have available. What? No Ipod? Nope! I decided I wanted to […]

Sgt Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club

June 3, 2007 by KChie 2 Comments

Friday, June 1, marked the 40 yr anniversary of  The Beatles greatest album, Sgt Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band, recorded as Beatlemania was waning. I got introduced to The Beatles at the Havel School, a British school in Germany for military kids, in the 1980s where we sang songs like With a Little Help From […]

The New Wave of Feminism?

March 9, 2007 by KChie 1 Comment

I must be growing old. Is there a new wave of feminism in America? So I was watching TV and I saw an ad for the new Pussycat Dolls reality show – The Pussycat Dolls Present: The Search for the Next Doll. For those who don’t know, the Pussycat Dolls are a 6 member scantily […]

A lover of mangoes. A woman - smart, without pretense, lefthanded, Afropolitan - navigating this thing called life. An unapologetic believer in social justice and karma. Choosing to radiate positive energy and be true to myself. Here, my musings.
