Hi, this Alonzo Bowden, welcome to episode 65 of my podcast, Who's Paying Attention?

Now, some of you are regular listeners, and I appreciate it, and you may have noticed there wasn't a podcast last week.

Well, that's because Thanksgiving, I spent the weekend going to Jakarta.

Yeah, I was in Indonesia.

There was a huge wedding.

The entertainment was Peebo Bryson, Lisa Stansfield, and Incognito, and they hired me to host

and try to get the crowd going and into it.

I do jazz cruises.

That's where the owner of the Jakarta Jazz Festival first saw me and he invited me to do this.

It was great. It was an interesting experience. One thing, big surprise, I bumped into like a bike

hangout at a mall in Jakarta. Yeah, middle of Jakarta. Amidst three million scooters were a bunch

of Harleys and Ducati.

So that was kind of cool.

And the wedding was just unbelievable.

Check my Facebook page.

I have some pictures.

Let me tell you something.

If you have a million dollars to throw a party, it's a hell of a party.

This is what I learned about Jakarta.

Don't try to go without a blank page in your passport because they will not let you on the plane nor in the country now here's the upside of that lesson if you ever need a passport really fast

go to the federal building the day before a holiday i went on wednesday before thanksgiving

they had me in and out of their passported in 90 minutes
