Guca!!!

Ok, so the times are all wrong because I didn't switch to Serbia time yet. It's 18:19 on Friday here.

So I went out last night and met some americans who are following around the extra action marching band (from SF). We went and had dinner and then ran around Guca listening to all the bands. There are so many bands! And carnival rides, and booths with random things being sold. Mostly festival related gear, but also a random bicycle part booth, and an electronics booth. It was sort of a light fixture specialty booth. I picked up some parts there to make an adapter for my mp3 player (wire and duct tape and a serbian plug). Worked great, hvala bog. Now I can actually record stuff-- it sounds pretty good, though I haven't gotten up close to any bands yet.

The bands played straight through the night, as far as I could hear from the apartment. Then this morning it started pouring rain and everyone went inside for a while. My host dad gave me that strange jam and mineral water thing this morning (what is that called again?) And then I went out and found the Americans. We hung out with the Extra Actions, who were playing with some Roma guys.

Tonight: 20:00: Extra action
22:00: Boban Markovic!!!
