We came together to honor and remember, Floyd Red Crow Westerman.  It was November 13, 2008, in San Francisco at the Palace of Fine Arts during the American Indian Film Festival.  The concert was all about Floyd, his music, friends, how he lived his life and how he inspirited others to live theirs.
 
The evening was magical, the Frybread sisters wore flowers in their hair, Javelinas Jammed, Jack Rambled, Bonnie Prayed, John drummed, Jennifer danced, Jeremy Drove, Charlie laughed, Katari cried, Max crooned, Dennis appeared, Michael Spears, Pete Sears, Melanie Stormm, Rosie Spoke, Floyd’s Carla, Quiet Shea, Loud Micki, Mike Smith, rock and rock, the boys in the band: Jimmy V, SevV’s, Chad the Man-dolin, Roberto.  Floyd’s handpicked misfits. In the distance, seals barked, and heels walked to parked cars near the Wharf with graffiti saying, “honor an artist by singing their songs.”  We did that night, 18 songs in a 7 song set on 11/13/08. 

Thanks Floyd.
Keith

I just have to say that I was there in Spirit. I met Floyd the first time at our high school auditorium in Pine Ridge, SD. He sang Custer Died for Your Sins & B.I.A. I'm not Your Indian Anymore. We were so happy to met him. The second time was in Minneapolis,MN-Floyd had white hair by then. I always enjoyed his singing & his songs. I loved all the movies he was in too. He's from my tribe & I could be related to him as I am part Dakota too. I will miss him too. He was going to do a docuementary on the Dakotas but, he passed away before he had the chance. I heard he suffered from an illness. We will see him again in the next life. & yes, I am happy for him that he made his Journey to the Spirit World. I am very happy that you did that for him, Keith. Lots of Love, Rosemary

Right on... make way for a mist of spiritual arising in music that is so fine with warmth and compassion for the one who has rode with the riders of the storm and is with the spirit walkers only to be seen in the tobacco smoke that follows the great wind who are keepers of the creation of time...Niawen:kowa/thankyou bigtime...for all that happens in the secred sounds of music of our friend,brother,and maker of real life history through his music and his voice that we will always remember when we hear his songs...Floyd Red Crow Westerman will catch us on the other side and none of us will be late for that time and place full of Spirit and song!
