Back from Gatherings!!!

This year I (Tobias co-host of "The Drum" & "NSNV")  was able to visit "Gathering of Nations" Pow-wow in Albuquerque. The weather was awesome and a lot of beautiful native people. It was hosted outside this year and next year it should be back at "The Pit". Stage 49 was a place to be for contemporary Native artists. And the artists put on a great show, it was like a Native music festival and more!! The venders and art market was also amazing. I think there is something for anyone and everyone. This year I also made it to the "All Nations Skate Jam". It was a positive event and was something for the youth to participate in. I tried skating the half pipe as a teen and I respect them boyz who didn't quit. Albuquerque also offered plenty of resturants and other activities. One weekend was not enough time to do everything. Next year I'm gonna plan and extra day, because three days isn't enough. Anyway, its Pow-wow season and if going to a Pow-wow isn't an option, listen to "The Drum" on AIROS.org every Sunday night from 7-9 p.m. central time. A great place on the web for Pow-wow music with Tobias & Jessica!!
