Playing music for adoring crowds in Yaletown, Vancouver
On the mean, drunken streets of Granville, a belly dancer and some rhythm to accompany the late night parties. Dangerous combination.
Woke with friends Zamir and Mariko, we all went for a beautiful run through the forest to start our days energized. The sun is beaming like it was spring, tricking all the flowers and cherry blossoms into their seasonal bloom. Our first official day street performing was yesterday...what an experience. People from all walks of life...Chinese, Indian, Dutch, Italian, English (it's the Olympics so I would hesitate to list all the worlds cultures here) roaming the streets searching for a connection. We chose to experiment performing with two mindstates: first where we were the flowing rivers, and if the fish were thirsty they would find us and rejuvenate. Secondly, when night struck, we were in search of the fish. Our search yielded juiced up and rowdy crowds, willing to watch and share in the excitement, but less willing to donate! We are trying to pay for our album here! That's ok, we had an adventure...performing for the world.
