The colorful Polartropica residency continued at the Bootleg Theater. Lights were bright, which is unusual for the Bootleg Theater. Of course, it helped that Polartropica brought floor lights along with reflective panels that were on both sides of the stage. And the fashion of the musicians emphasized the colorful, as well.
The Colour Coast opened the night with their Latin dance music. Their music had their lead singer Marley dancing away. She did so much dancing that she tripped and stumbled at one point. She recovered quickly and replied, "That's the first time I've ever fallen on stage." Well, hey, there's a first for everything. It is always nice to catch this band's dance tunes. The band is always in action, which makes for some fun photography.

This was my first time seeing
Holander. I was previously invited to catch her set a couple weeks earlier at the Moroccan Lounge, but had other plans that night. One has to love her energy on stage. Her 30 minutes were spend putting on a stage performance worthy of praise. And that pink stretch outfit of hers reflected the stage floor lights, turning her into a bright star.

Polartropica mixes in Asian sounds with Western pop. And kept the pink fashion going. There was an amusing moment in the set that came in the very first song. Ihui came up on stage with a trumpet. Now she was using it as a prop for the back-up sounds. Well, during the song she put the trumpet down. As the song was coming to an end, she picked it up just a split second too late. She was going to do a prop blast of the trumpet, but the back-up sounds beat her too it. You could tell from her facial expression that she was thinking, "I missed the beat." But hey, onward and upward.
