Just got back from the Atlanta Civic Center where I heard Sufi music live for the first time. Pretty incredible stuff! The MC came out and talked about the need for universal love and understanding between all cultures and how music was such a wonderful language of communication. He spoke of the meaning of Sufi music, the letting go of the ego and how it enabled one to reach a higher awareness and love. It was a much welcomed message in these troubled times. The musicians played for about an hour, and when the lead vocalist sang, I swear I could hear Derek's guitar playing! After a 15 minute intermission the band came back on stage with the whirling dervish dancers. How they do it is amazing! I'd be like a drunk kid twirling around but they were so loose...yet in perfect rhythm and rotation. It was a very mesmerizing and meditative experience with a wonderful message in the music...kind of like some other bands I know! JNB
