Someone let me on stage! The View from Fez just posted my thoughts.

Not surprisingly, the Assawis put on a show.

Hot damn, this thing just keeps going!

The View From Fez used a few of my comments on their article about Fes Café’s concert last night.

They also let me add some meat to their Youssou Ndour article, explaining a bit of the unexpected ending that highlighted the performance.

For the duration of the festival, I’m going to try to upload some of my favorite photos each day or so. Since I’m fairly lazy, and just putting up a long series of posts here of only large pictures would drag down the entire page, I’m going to go ahead and use Facebook’s photo uploader. If you don’t have an account or are not my friend (why would that be?), you can access the constantly expanding album here. Check back often!
