The other day, I attended a small concert by a band called Dhun, which plays Hindi rock.
Good stuff, great talent.
And India is FULL of such talent.
But all this talent is being killed by repressive and kleptocratic policies.
Live music has been virtually banned in all our cities. Further, each and every time that a bar license is refused, a musician suffers.
Yet, they call this the ICE Age: Information, Communication and Entertainment.
India has excelled in both “I” as well as “C” – but whatever happened to the all-important “E”?
Note: Singers, Musicians and Dancers Don’t Need “Education.”
They need Liberty!
Indeed, the blacks in the USA produced a Nat “King” Cole, a “Duke” Ellington and a “Count” Basie – all “superstars” – long before they had “civil rights.”
Only because of Liberty.
After the show, I went outside to smoke (ramadoss’ tyranny) – and was fortunate enough to find the band there, smoking as well. We talked about AMSTERDAM!
And I told them:
Sing songs of Freedom – like Mr. Marley.
(There are too many love songs anyway.)
