04
"Majek is an absolutely amazing and incredible performer. His is the

--kalakuta3000
*** We agree Kalakuta!
That's why Majek Fashek's performance at the Temple Bar is our PICK of the WEEK.
Folks, celebrate Christmas a little early and treat yourself to some choice
Afrrican Reggae from Nigeria out of New York. The chance to see someone like
Majek at an intimate club is one not to be missed. He's been out of the
line-up these past few years and we hear he's coming back strong. Let's
support our world-class African musicians here in Southern California.
Happy Holidays Everyone!
