Adidas Street Party:

This is what I noticed being set up early morning on my way to work, Friday morning, at the Piazza at McKinley Hill. Of course back then, it was just the tents and the framework for this stage.

By lunchtime, the Piazza'a place had been converted into a busy hub of tents and my colleagues and I were wondering who's concert it would be?

As it turns out, we were wrong - not a concert, as more sports fashion event organized by Adidas to promote their classic line designs. Guess it's back to basics for this line... which somehow explains the VW Combi occupying a big chunk of their small stage; back to basics being like going back in time - hence, a retro feel... and you can't get retro and cool any better than with a Combi.

As Friday's evening came, my colleagues and I hied over to our favorite watering hole for a few bottles of beer - and it was just coincidence that said place afforded a perfect balcony view of the Adidas Street Party/Fashion event. Unfortunately, this event was scheduled to start around 9PM - too late for our taste - but we already had an idea of what would transpire, since we watched them go through their rehearsals.
