Diana Ross kicked it all off here in LA on Saturday and set off a chain reaction… and we’re not finished yet as we get Ziggy with it.
It makes sense that the City of Angels draws those who are blessed with the voices of angels.
And in Ziggy Marley, our entertainment for our last day at our American Travel Fair, IPW, his dad Bob is here with us in spirit.
Ziggy, you’ll remember from the One Love biopic is the cute kid Bob wrote Three Little Birds for.
Who went on to carve out a Grammy-winning career himself.
And truly we don’t worry about a thing here this week as our LA hosts have taken care of it all.
Wyld about Keanu
Diana, of course, is no warm-up act for anyone but the entertainment which has followed could easily pack an auditorium.
With Keanu Reeves’ band (no, not Wyld Stallyns) but Southern Californian schtick combo Dogstar bringing the house down.
And left the Italian delegation in particular weak-kneed as they shouted out their love for him from the floor.
While the legends that we so loved and lost couldn’t obviously be with us we were treated to the next best thing.
Regards to Broadway
With a Michael Jackson tribute act heading up the MJ musical which he gave us a taster of.
All part of a Broadway Musicals hour.
Where the casts of Chicago, Six, Back to the Future and new sensation Water for Elephants all featured.
Kicks on Route 66
We’ve been treated too to the best hip hop and jazz in Louis York to promote Travel South USA Y’all.
And house and blues to project Chicago for next year’s convention.
There is a synergy to all of this with Route 66 which connects LA to Chicago celebrating its centenary.
This week has as it always is at IPW been about one love… for travel.
And we have of course been getting Ziggy with it.
