Last night was the official start of the European Songs of the Soul Tour in lovely Zlin, Czech Repuplic.? Zlin is a relatively small town of about 50 000, but the welcome was huge and the crowd for the concert was 600+. Maybe it’s the proximity to the full moon, but it was one of the smoother and most enjoyable concerts I’ve had the honor of being a part of.
Set up on stage before the start
I think the team is really getting it’s groove on.? The technical people are working like anything and we’ve now done maybe 15 or 20 concerts like this one.? I hope that this is a preview of what is to come for the next 8 concerts.
I didn’t get a chance to hear everything but off the top of my head I think I Matthijs’ piano performance and Agnikana’s Group were stand outs for me.? The finale with Gandharva Loka was very fun also.? We played two songs and at the request (Standing O) of the crowd played a rocking (in the dynamic spiritual sense) third piece.? The said crowd seemed to indeed be very appreciative.? More posts to come (depending on Slovakian, Hungarian and Slovenian Internet).
Nice playing in Zl?n, thanks for your visit. More pics here…http://cz.srichinmoycentre.org/songs-soul-2009
