Spring is coming... Watch for Squirrels!

This past week was full of activity getting ready for Bengali New Year and the "Catch the Squirrel" CD release parties. Last Monday we took some time to attend a lecture at BU by Richard Bulliet on his book and concept "The Case for Islamo-Christian Civilization" - a much-needed and inspiring viewpoint that focuses on a new perspective to understanding the Muslim world and its civilizations as a complement to Western civilization. Looks like I'll be adding another book to my Amazon wish list...

On a less serious note, I've finally broken down and started my MySpace accounts...

Both events will feature a live band performing music from the CD. Currently that band includes some of the best musicians in Central PA: Dave Eisenhower (drums), Mark Tomeo (pedal steel), Joe Gaughan (keyboard), Dave Kessler (bass). We will also have contests, prizes, and of course - squirrels. Reservations really are recommended. Note - this is not a children's album, despite the colorful artwork... http://www.mindspeak.com/cts.htm

** A new place, small but powerful... ***

There's a new art gallery/performance space downtown that I'd like all of the local artists to know about: Open Your Eyes to Dream 143 W Main St (570) 239-7520. Check it out. I'm sure you will be surprised!
