I saw Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan and Party perform at the Museum of Civilization in Gatineau sometime in the mid-90's. I can't find the exact year, but a truly amazing concert. I remember many CKCU ers in the audience clandestinely recording the concert. Anyone have a bootleg to share?

Hi Neil Just tuned in. I was out with my running group in Richmond ON doing a run—it was like running on pie crust today. I’m back home enjoying a coffee and tuned in to This Island Earth.

HI Shelley Ann, its a beautiful afternoon to be out, but not great for driving. I hope you get to relax for the rest of your Sunday.

Thankfully I don’t drive (smile). I’ll leave that to someone else. I love the hushed sounds when it snows. Our running group has visually impaired runners and sighted guides—we all participate together and have a lot of run. Yes I am enjoying a coffee and relaxation and the music, too.

Sounds like a lovely way to spend an afternoon S.A.M. A running group with fun people might even get someone like me to start running!
