Last Thursday, I went to see Gogol Bordello at the Ogden Theatre here in Denver. Best decision ever. 

I first heard them seven years ago as a freshman in college. My roommate played "Start Wearing Purple"- I thought it was great but that was about where my interest ended. A few years ago, my dear friend Beata reintroduced me and so my love affair began in earnest.

Gogol Bordello is amazing live. So fun! So much energy!

I can think of few things better than the combination of Romani music and punk. Never heard them? Take a listen!


Want more? Here you go!

Not only was it a great show entertainment-wise, but they reminded me what I want to do with my life. I want to work on immigration policy/minority rights (ideally in Eastern Europe). It will take time, and I will have to work my butt off to get there, but I will do it. It's worth it and I'm committed to it.
