Living in Peru : your everyday companion

It’s been a while since I’ve attended such a wonderful and intimate concert like last night.  Three Jacks entertained me and about 500 other guests in the concert hall of Colegio Santa Ursula. I had “only” expected to enjoy some Irish/Scottish Celtic music and see some beautiful dancers, but I got much more that I had bargained for, when the band, 4 women and two gentlemen entered the stage and offered us a journey full of wonderful music, dances and great stories. Despite the fact that the performance was in a concert hall, the band was able to turn the environment into something cozy, and during the concert I started thinking of a bar in Killkenny back in Ireland that I visited more than 10 years ago. There I had the privilege to attend a night (not an evening) , where all the city’s musicians met at the bar of my hotel and started playing/jamming together as they arrived. I’ll never forget that night and the Three Jacks reminded me last night why.  Ireland is beautiful.

There is a good reason why some of the best musicians like Van Morrison, U2, Sinead O’Conner and others have been able to conquer the world with their music in the past – last night it was the Three Jacks that conquered Lima and I can only recommend you to attend this evenings EXTRA concert (almost SOLD OUT).

Tickets are available from S/. 50 to S/. 135 at Teleticket

Where When : 7 PM tonight at the Concert Hall of Colegio Santa Ursula, San Isidro

I almost forgot. Not only do you get an excellent concert, but all the money you pay for your ticket is spend wisely with the help of Rotary Club Lima Sunrise to build a clinic in Pisco, where the inhabitants still don’t have a hospital after the big Earthquake back in August 2007 destroyed most of the city.
