Hi CyberGoans, It is black-out time in NY City and in Toronto (and reportedly along the Eastern part of US and Canada). But here in upstate NY all is well except for a few split second blackouts at the work-place.
I had written the following post a few days ago. Are there any cyber Goans in Goa and Bombay who could answer the questions in the post?=:))Gilbert Hi Helga, Thanks for your polite response and for clarifying the culture /music scene in Goa. You are right that we wrongly compare and get defensive. We need to compare and look for any learning lessons / opportunities to improve. In my post I was not talking about jazz in Goa and not even Jazz in Bombay. I am an authority on neither. My taste (and I know little about it) is just good-old dance music. I was not talking about the music /art greats in Bombay, Goa or NY. I was talking about how to get there (to the top). And what can the Goan community do to help our youth to get there and in the process enrich Goan culture for the masses. Does Goa (and Bombay) currently have any music (solo and band) and singing competitions (like 'Teens and Tunes') in the various villages and talukas - - Not at the state level for the 'Greats'? Regards, Gilbert. ########################################################################## # Send submissions for Goanet to [EMAIL PROTECTED] # # PLEASE remember to stay on-topic (related to Goa), and avoid top-posts # # More details on Goanet at http://joingoanet.shorturl.com/ # # Please keep your discussion/tone polite, to reflect respect to others # ##########################################################################
