Here in Corvallis we just had a Solstice weekend jam-packed full of great kirtan. Atlanta-based Blue Spirit Wheel played a Yoga class & a kirtan concert as part of their six-week tour, which includes a set Saturday noon at Midwest Bhakti Fest. The band stayed with us, and it was such a great time -- the pic for this week's show was taken in our living room during a kirtan jam last Wednesday night. Then Sunday night Shantala with Bansuri flute master extraordinaire Steve Gorn played to a full house. The beautiful Corvallis kirtan community turned out to support both bands, and we spent the weekend surrounded with Bhakti love -- so blessed.

Enjoy the deep soulfulness of Blue Spirit Wheel my friends, and until next time -- Namaste.

Left on Blue Spirit Wheel's van before they departed Saturday morning. Does the Corvallis kirtan community rock or what?

P.S. As I mention in the podcast, I'd very much appreciate your input on what artists you'd like us to record live at Midwest Bhakti Fest, and also a bit about podcast direction. Here's the link. Thanks so much for helping the show to better serve you <3
