Sounds great David!  Sorry I'm too far away to make it.  Got to admire
anyone who has the courage to perform on the sipsi in public!  A Turkish
musician friend gave me one but I've never been daring enough to bring it 
to
a gig.

One academic question for you -- is your "tar" the frame drum, or the
Iranian lute?

Great to see someone else using non-western instruments with looping.  Good
luck with the gig!

James

Dear Loopers,

My duo, Redondo, with guitarist/bassist Dave Burk is playing "organic
polytribal groove loops" at the Cedar Cultural Center in Minneapolis
this Saturday at 8 pm.  We use an EDP and a JamMan to build odd and
funky rythym loops with violin, guitar, electric bass, saz, Egyptian
tabla, oud, conga drums, tar, talking drums, saxophone, voice and sipsi,
incorporating global traditional tunes and improvisation.

We will be joined for this show by the great Ugandan guitarist Yusef
Shalita.

I hope you can make it!

David Stenshoel
