International Secret Agents SF

Leave a reply

The International Secret Agents (ISA) Concert in San Francisco was crazy last night. Long lines were flowing out of the Palace of Fine Arts with fans eager to get in for the concert. The ISA lineup included Passion, Paul Dateh, Wong Fu Productions, Far East Movement, and Jin tha MC. Highlights included Passion singing a original song about cherishing the ones you love. Paul Dateh’s vocals and the violin were on fire. (Girls really like his hair too.) Wong Fu Productions showed a video montage of their past few years, an hilarious extension of the “Up In Da Club” short, and the new cut from David Choi’s new music video. Glow sticks lit up the Palace of Fine Arts as Far East Movement took the stage with the songs like Animal, Girls on the Dance Floor, and Fetish off their new album Animal. Jin took the stage with a mix of his songs both old and new with Learn Chinese and ABC rockin the SF crowd. (check out the latest with Jin here.) Far East Movement took the stage again with Jin doing collab joints like Millionaire, Food Fight, and For the City. The ending was great with everyone taking the stage. Asian Americans artists were definitely supporting each other with what ISA is all about. All the artists appreciated their fans taking the time to meet them after the concert with a line that went out the door. ISA can’t happen without the fans. Next ISA stop is back in Los Angeles in late 2009. Look for more info coming soon. Also pictures have just been put up check them here and here.
