    Last Saturday,(Nov/26th),I was again invited to play with one of the top Ethiopian singers, which come to Houston every year,Neway Debebe,at one point there was a rage in front of the stage,I thought we were going to get in trouble but, I have to give credit to the Ethiopian people for good behavior,(not fighting),but and excellent response to the band,and a lot of Ethiopian beauties.Their use extensivebly the 6/8,and 5/4 time signature in their music..Dr. Zaragemca
