Bob Marley in Kathmandu

We went to a restaurant in Thamel last night for some live music. It was a Nepali band doing a variety of Western cover songs. Their repertoire included Marley, James Blunt, John Mayer, and even Hoobastank - that one-hit wonder from last summer. They were actually quite good, but it was just surreal to be sitting in the middle of Kathmandu listening to Western music!

I suppose the cliche is true, music does connect us all :p

if you see a bunch of american teenagers walking around Thamel in a big row two-by-two... they're Royal Servants... a missions organization. That's who Tanya and I went to Nepal with. I'm so excited that you're there!!
