Wow, poor guy can't even get a lame Daft Punk comment.

maybe that's because people under 14 don't know who he is, and therefore aren't interested in leaving stupid comments.
the OM set was really nice. i loved that he asked us to sit on the floor (although sitting cross-legged for that long on concrete was not very easy), and that he alctually talked with us, discussing the kora.
it's beyond me that he could make such layered sound using only 2 fingers and 2 thumbs on one instrument.

the bowery show took a little while to get going, but the second half was fucking amazing. he played a solo on the kora that was really beautiful.
