Hi Patrice,
You forgot to find out the following from your source:
Was there really a young deaf-mute girl, Idalina, in Anjuna, who
supplied tea and local snacks to hippies?
Is there a Flea Market in Anjuna on Fridays? We know there is one on
Wednesdays.
How could a deaf-mute girl scream at Bob Marley whenever she saw him?
Full moon parties were held on a full moon night and not specifically on
a Friday night.
Silviano Barbosa is a wonderful fiction writer (to know him more, please
read his book 'The Sixth Night' (Sottve Rati); his was a humorous
response. You didn't have to go to that length to find out if Bob Marley
was indeed in Anjuna, Goa.
Now I say: Tannem bob marli ani ami aikoli! (He shouted and we heard it!)
As far as Konkani is concerned, many foreigners who lived in Goa from
the late 1960s through mid 1980s spoke Konkani fluently. Of course,
their children spoke better Konkani. Presently, foreigners' children are
learning Konkani in our schools.
Have a good day!
Moi-mogan,

LOL here too at the purported Anjuna adventures of rasta Bob, yet I
asked an oldie who should know (one of the early 70 hippies). He wrote me:
> But was he ever in Goa? You should know...
Simple answer is no. I would have known, if he was, surely. I remember
driving huge distances across India, in the early 80s, to his music on
the stereo, though :-)
Neither was Pete Townsend, BTW, which was the prevailing rumour, at the
time, because The Who had donated a drum kit, which Trumpet Steve had
brought to Anjuna.
Cheerio, p+3D!
