Albuquerque 'Gathering of Nations' Powwow ends after 43 years

THE GATHERING OF NATIONS (Powwow) will end April 24-25, 2026. It was once considered the largest powwow in the world. It is that way no more. The reason is because of Indian Casino powwows across the United States. They have grown considerably within the last decade. More money given out to contest drummers, singers and dancers. Some casinos give out brand new trucks and cars as prizes.

The controversy surrounding the "Gathering" has always been commercialization and exploitation of modern traditions. The powwow has been around since 1983 and it brought in tons of cash for Albuquerque. "The Final Dance" is the end title for this years, "Gathering." It will be no more after April 25, 2026.

No matter what you say. The "Gathering" has always been commercialized. The organization that runs the powwow has not given the public a reason for the end game. It is very clear that it has become too expensive to run and there is no net profit. Everything costs too much. I recall when a ticket for a single person used to be 7$ dollars. That was back in 1995. That price has blown up to $25 dollars in 2026. It's just way too much for me. I haven't attended in 5 years for that very reason.

Nonetheless.... The powwow community will attend and then move onto the next one. The "Gathering" always kicks off the powwow "trail" for those who compete all spring and summer. That includes drummers, singers and dancers. Is this the end of an era? No, because powwows come and go every year. It's just that the "Gathering" has been around this long which was once the largest powwow in the U.S.

Opening in Movie theaters on Friday April 24, 2026 'Micheal'

MICHEAL is a bio-pic about Micheal Jackson who is portrayed by his nephew Jafar. It is receiving bad reviews - but for fans it is awesome.!

As an MJ fan. I can't see anyone playing him. I'd rather watch the documentaries like "This is it" and "Journey from Motown to Off the Wall."

Cool Movie News 'Miami Vice-85' reboot for IMAX in 2027

MIAMI VICE from UNIVERSAL. The film reboot had rumors swirling with Tom Cruise as "James Sonny Crockett" and Micheal B. Jordan as "Ricardo Rico Tubbs." That was wishful thinking of course with Cruise because of his price tag. It would've been cool though.

The Hollywood talk has ended. Michael B. Jordan (Ricardo Rico Tubbs) and Austin Butler (James Sonny Crocket) have both signed onto the the remake of "Miami Vice" (IMAX 2027). Filming begins in 2026 from Universal pictures. Joseph Kosinski will Direct. As a fan. I can't stand it.!!!

Facebook - "Let's Talk Movies" 2025-26.

This is based on the popular NBC TV crime show, "Miami Vice" (Series Run from 1984 to 1989). Back then, it starred Don Johnson as "Crockett" and Phillip Micheal Thomas as "Tubbs." Both are undercover detectives. It was executive produced by film director Michael Mann. 

The show was set in Miami during the 1980's with more style over substance. Fast cars, beautiful women, luxury boats and colorful clothes - worn by the men. Sonny Crockett set a fashion trend with his eye popping jackets, pants and shoes. (I had a few of his jackets. Hah.!).

Michael Mann developed "Vice" into a gritty film (2006) starring Colin Farrell (Crockett) and Jamie Foxx (Tubbs). It was far removed from the stylish TV show. Miami and the illegal drug trade was the hard focus. I'm a big fan and couldn't wait to see it in movie theaters. It also starred the beautiful Asian actress Gong Li. (I was her number #1 fan back then. (I still am - I guess).

"Vice" 2006 grabbed $164 million at the world-wide box office. It was more popular in Foreign countries than in North America. It has made a resurgence over the years and has become a cult favorite. It is still one of my favorites.!

Let's see what 2027 will bring.

Below is from NBC Classics. The original TV trailer for "Miami Vice" 1984.


Below is the 2006 movie trailer for "Miami Vice."
