I'm not driving a Lexus yet, probably never will. I'm just not seeing all that money people are talking about. I must have overlooked some of that bilked cash I've been skimming off the top, because the last time I checked we were in the red. In fact, I've spent far more than I've received back. It's a complete loss, if you want to know the truth.
The problem in a nutshell ... everybody wants to get paid for their art, but nobody wants to buy the final product.
Yes, times are hard-- Unemployment in Indiana tops ten percent. Young people are struggling to stay in college because graduating is terrifying... Been there before, in the middle of another painful recession in the 80's-- The answer was reggae music-- I brought reggae bands to stages from PA to Iowa, and points in between. Those years were spent in the groove, poor but irie! Now, we need music more than ever before-- Even with hope on the horizon, it's going to be a long haul this time. Mumbai Taxi is trying to ease the pain-- Yes, there will be weekends when a cover at a club, and the price of drinks, will be a bit dear... Our solution: HOUSE PARTIES!!! We need to play, and you need trips, Taxi trips-- A cosmic convergence of positive iration! Let's declare a new SUMMER OF LOVE-- Of Mumbai Taxi psychedeclic Mambo, Tropicalia, Soukous, Soweto Beat & Rockin' Raga Reggae in living rooms, back yards, deep woods, concert halls, gardens, festivals-- Wherever there is a need to tune in, turn on, and take a (Mumbai) Taxi trip! Contact us soon-- The calendar is filling up.
Phila Phil & Mumbai Taxi-- Baba Akinwala Yudiddiyuh Griffin-Sledge Kevin & Bill.
