GREETINGS FROM NEW YORK !
This past week restored our faith that great unhindered events can still
happen
in our "culturally captive" city and for that we give major props to all
who
were involved in:
Body & Soul's amazing Central Park Summerstage outdoor dance party of
parties
a spiritually uplifting magical day out that reaffirms the possibilities !
and hats off to David Byrne and the Luaka Bop crew who celebrated their
10 years
with enchanting and wonderous performances from Susana Baca and Waldemar
Bastos
under the stars
RESPECT !
with that in mind we have a few events of our own in the works for the
late Summer
season and into the Fall.
Please join us !
