......... if you really know me, you know that I can now die happy.
Really though, it was awesome. It was this group called Timshel (look them up on youtube or wherever) and the lead singer was super energetic and sang in English, French, and Wolof, and he was wearing these awesome harem pants and now I want some. Also, the lead guitarist was the African version of Lil Wayne and he was so good and super crazy. It was just chill and awesome and Marwa (my new friend from centre baobab) and I danced with the Senegalese and French people and just yeah, it was great. I also have a strongly renewed desire to dread my hair.
Going to attempt to upload a video... or videos... not sure how well this will work, so fingers crossed...
and pictures of course...
Nikki! It has been a long time since I last saw you but as I read your blog I just got very excited for the adventure you are on! I don't know where the time goes, I have a vivid memory of you and my son Drew racing around your pool table when you were little and now you're in Africa and he is in Russia! I will keep you in my prayers. I think your courage to step out of your comfort zone is inspiring and will change your life in wonderful ways! Hugs from the Duncan Family!
ReplyDeleteYour video came through GREAT Nikki! Keep them coming. Now that I found where they are I look forward to seeing more.
ReplyDeleteDread your beautiful hair? Oh My.......
Have FUN and be SAFE! Love, Donna
This is so dope! wish I could have been there to see it!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat language were they singing in? My guess was Wolof and maybe a little English. Can you guess how many people were in the audience?
ReplyDeleteA lot of English actually, and then a mixture of French/Wolof as is customary here. Probably not more than 75-100 people, it was in a small amphitheater and very calm.
