From reid at rdalland.com Wed May 2 06:06:47 2007 From: reid at rdalland.com (Reid Dalland) Date: Wed, 2 May 2007 09:06:47 -0400 Subject: [Didjeridu] Stephen Kent performance. Message-ID: <380-2200753213647906@rdalland.com> Saw Steven Kent perform last night in Rosendale, NY. He is doing more shows on the east coast, including NYC. See his website for more info. It was great to see him live again, and it was a very intimate show, maybe 40 people in the audience total. Saw a few didgers there, missed some that didn't make it. My wife and son finally got to hear what a didjeridoo should sound like. There was an article in one of the local papers, reminiscent of the Wall Street Journal article. Stephen actually stopped the show to defend himself because of what had been written.

I see some controversial possibilities in that article.......methinks Mr. McCarthy (if the quoted material is accurate) comes across as bitter and not accurately representing his own culture. I base that observation solely on having spent personal time with several Aborigine players, some of whom have participated in, and assisted us with school presentations. I wonder if Mr. McCarthy might be doing more harm than good with the kind of statements he is quoted as making....especially in light of his occupation? (see the article). I think Stephen is very respectful of the culture and the instrument, and isn't in any way involved in misappropriation.....but everything I have said is MHO.
