The last free concert we went to in American Village was held at the end of September. We were very happy to go out and support Shum from Triple-P as he rocked. You may remember a previous post about how much we enjoyed the brother-sister duo Triple-P and their cute music video shot on Okinawa. Shum has a side project out right now that's much more Japanese rap/hip-hop.

He had a very good turn out for the evening. He did some sound-mixing, singing, and dancing. Quite the show! Here's a video clip of his intro.

There was a full-moon that evening, too, which provided an interesting sight.

I may have to use the photo in some Halloween crafts next year. :)

While many music artists Stateside often do side or solo projects, I haven't come across one that makes their name a clear advertisement for their band. He doesn't go by "Shum," he is literally going by "Shum from Triple- P!" Here's a video clip from his One-Two-Three song.

We were also very impressed with his dance tribute to Michael Jackson.
We really enjoyed his concert and hope to see him again in American Village!
