Whew!

Other than a couple of show-stopping, teeth-grinding music foulups (Whoever hired that DJ is fired!), the hafla was awesome! I was a bit worried, I admit, since there were a couple of other drumming and dance events going on the same weekend. It turned out that I had a perfect amount of dancers and a bunch of drummers, not to mention the best audience I think I've had in a while! I only got one picture during the show because I was running the music (see above.), but now I know to hand off my camera to someone else earlier.

Here I am after the show, getting the hookah properly smokey. My dreads are getting long! Also, check my bitchin' hat, yo.:




( more women sucking hookah pipes here! )

I had a lovely time, and want to thank all of you LJ-ers that came out for the fun! We may do an indoor party of some sort during the winter, I will let you know more when I do.
