oh at the prospect park... mmm? maybe even Paul Auster was there, my favorite author from 2005 and the whole 2000's for that matter ;)

it was really something, near the end they had a vocalist come out and solo the piece from the album. no music, just what sounded to these untrained ears to be a lament, fully in an arabic tongue, and barely a rustle from the crowd of thousands(?) rapt. it was just one of those moments- middle of brooklyn, hearing a beautiful voice sing strange words and feeling that people were celebrating this
