I guess the last line refers to the globalFest concert (http://bit.ly/1buvkr) - and I had attended it! 'Kailasa' was among one of a dozen so-called 'world music' artists / bands performing that night. And trust me they totally stole the show! The audience was completely mixed and I was thrilled to see how these guys could connect so well despite the language / cultural barrier. I didn't hear as much applause for the other artists (all v accomplished). Credit where its due - it's imp to mention that as much as Kailasa was good, the audience at globalFest also had the openness to take it in.
Btw, I heard about ARR's Golden Globe victory while I was listening to Kailash Kher LIVE!
