Loco Sosa about his stay at the Royalton in NYC with Curumin
By urbanjungle on Feb 26, 2009 | In curumin, TOURS
It has been almost 15 days, 5 airports, vans, 8 different cities in 7 states, 8 different hotels, wake up, play, pack, off to the next gig…
NYC was our last stop. I was already used to share the room with our good looking snorer Tour Manager but I was happy just for the fact of being able to stay at the same place for more than one night.
Follow up:
Then we got to 44th Street and I suddenly realized that things were going to be a little bit different this time.
We arrived at the Royalton Hotel for check in and we were told we all were going to have our own individual rooms!!!!
- What floor are we staying at?
- Penthouse.
- Oh, ok…
At the first night we weren’t able to catch much sleep. The schedule we were on for the past 2 weeks made its effect on us. However, the rooms, the bed, the shower!!! Probably the best treat we could have after everything we had been through during the tour.
We had Saturday off and so we had time to look for Curumin at the PH. It was a little hard of a task due to the size of the place, but we used a sonorous communication system we’ve learned from the Caiapos Indian tribe, that turned out to be really useful.
Sunday was the video recording day with our loud games throughout the hotel. We started out playing soccer at the PH and came down exchanging passes in the elevator. At the Lobby, Andre 3000 almost joined us during the performance, which was dragged along with our soccer, also artistic, to the streets of NYC. We ended up on 44th Street hearing far away voices from the video shooting crew telling us we could stop.
The grand finale was a magnificent dinner at the hotel restaurant, where we shared a table with the entire crew, treating ourselves with delicious shrimp cocktails and tuna in spicy sauce. I’ve heard all that happened when Superbowl was on, but I couldn’t care less about it or anything else. I was the happiest guy in the world just for having that meal in such a wonderful place.
