Zakir Hussain et. al – world premier of “Tabla Beat Science“, Stern Grove, San Francisco, CA 8/12/01

Unpredictability is often the soul of a live performance, especially when it arises from
an entirely new fusion of genres and cultures. So it happened that on August
12, 2001, in this same spirit of the unexpected, a group of high-caliber musicians
under the name Tabla Beat Science convened outdoors among the towering eucalyptus
trees of Stern Grove in San Francisco. Melding traditional Indian rhythms,
African vocal styles, modern electronics, low-end dub bass and DJ breakbeats
into a two-hour sonic experience, the music of Tabla Beat Science left an
indelible mark on the thousands of people who were there to witness it.”

    WOW~! I wish I had a list of all the concerts I’ve been to. What fun! I do have lots and lots of ticket stubs so maybe some day I will go through them all and make one.

    yeah i think at one point several years ago (2000?) i did exactly that; i went though my ticket stub collection and made a list, and since then i’ve just kept updating the list. i no longer keep the the ticket stubs…
