...as a bassplayer of wajiha and farid rastagar.
so if anybody wants to listen to some afghan live pop music, go there:
see flyer!

the troxy is one of the most beautiful art deco buildings in london. built in 1933 as a cinema it was renovated and now is a concert and event hall. visit their website: http://www.troxy.co.uk/

so if anybody wants to listen to some strange afghan-live-pop-music :wink: , go there or send a pm.

EDIT:
so, I was there. a turbulent, chaotic trip for a concert in a very beautiful hall.
3000 afghans celebrated their new years eve.
poor soundcheck due to typical not existing afghan organisation.
good show but instead of being the main act we had to open the show, what we did not do too bad.
because of not existing afghan organisation we had to stay until the end (4am in the morning).
because the promoter did not pay the band in time we missed our flight: an extra not extra paid day in london.
nevertheless an adventure and some great moments, but somehow I will look for another band ... non afghan :wink:
here a slideshow for your entertainment (click then on fullsize):

Yeah but they're not going anywhere. :cry:

maybe you should not keep them in cases but take them out more?
:wink: (green in envy for the 902, :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: )
can't afford one at the moment, so I had to let go the last one on ebay a few days ago, but it did not sell :(

yeah, who would ever think this a few years ago, that a bass would take me with afghan music to some very nice places in the world?
I am very grateful.

...and to meet some very nice people :wink: and some also in person?
