I was at a sort of sustainable, ecological trade fair today (hunting down some good organic veggies), and talked to a tabla player who was selling sitars and other instruments, including an Indian mandolin. I mentioned that I had heard of the classical indian mando player through Deep (where are you Deep?), and it turns out they had played together on many occasions... Guy has a shop in Barcelona. Amazing to watch a good tabla player up close, bought my daughter an indian mouth harp... Life is tolerable! Best Robin
