The show last night in Chico was truly awesome. Go see them if you get the chance. I can't remember the last time I smiled that much at a show.

Dittos from the Berkeley gig

What an enjoyable time. Habib was amazing, I didn't realize how good a guitar player he is until now.

It was great to see the (almost) 80 year old Kélétigui Diabaté on Balafon too, he's a cultural icon in Mali.

Gotta admit, it was the first time I've seen a 'talking drum', but the one Mahamadou Koné played sounded really really cool.

ENJOY THIS TOUR IF YOU CAN FOLKS!
