I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4
Primaeval "opened with an hanter dro; where everyone links together and grooves into an ever decreasing spiral and back out again, like a snake wrapping around itself. The drum starts to drive the rhythm and a sense of tribal oneness unfurls into the Arabic ambience cast by the hurdy-gurdy. The crowd dances and moves in unison as the pastoral oboe cracks into the stratosphere with its dizzy, electrifying sound standing up the hairs on the back of my neck. The music has a structure capable of inducing a state of trance, almost hypnotic, especially in the group dances where this feeling is channelled back through the communal rhythm of the dancers."

Poem 2 of 230, WalkaboutsVerse (please see my blog): WALKABOUT WITH MY PEN
Once drove an old sedan, up north, From a place in Sydney to Cairns; Then to Kuranda I went forth, By train, to look without set plans.
I browsed through the trendy market, With fresh fruits of tropical kind; Walked to the creek through lush thicket - Nature’s hand giving peace of mind.
I dined in a scenic cafe; Then, outside, as I wrote for yen, Some passing Kooris called-out: “Hey, You go walkabout with your pen.”
Request or question, I don’t know - Assured voices, elderly men. That’s now several years ago, And I’ve seen the world - with my pen.
PS: Sorry if you've already received this... with over 20,000 friends, its kinda hard to keep track!!! Nevertheless we'll do our best to keep our friends informed :D

We're playing at The Thekla in Bristol tomorrow night. We hope you can come. Its a special multi-media show with a vj mixing footage from Baka land with live film and effects. Come and dance and spread the word to your friends. It'll be a great night.
We'll be playing songs from our new album "Baka Beyond the Forest" as well as some old favourites. Its the 5-piece line up featuring Molara, Fela Kuti's niece and the original voice of Zion Train, joining Su on vocals.
