A concert in Siem Reap!

It’s always a good thing when you get to experience a culture and community while traveling.  In this case, Granzberg Beer held a concert in Siem Reap for International Women’s Day.  It was a free concert that had a ton of food and a very chill crowd.  One day 2, I saw a single police officer.  Otherwise, there was no security and seemingly no need for any. 

As Meta said, the people were all about enjoying the night with no drama.  I was snapping photos “in the pit” both nights and despite the crowds and the heat, I don’t even think anyone bumped into me!  It was the most peaceful “pit” I’ve ever seen.  

The performances were all very good.  The first night we saw 3 pop performers.  The 2nd night had a bunch of Hip Hop MC’s, which was certainly a better night for me.  I thorough enjoy experience the culture in different contexts.  In addition to the MC’s I met in Bolivia, I can add Siem Reap MC’s to my “yeah they’re dope” list.

Here are a bunch of photos from two great nights.
