The only good Cat

[The Ghost of Bob Starr]

Cat Stevens/Yusuf Islam will tour the US for the first time since 76, with an LA show in Dec.

 

Dude's voice sounds as good as it did back then.

 

 

[Tank]

he's dead to me and a whole lot of other people.

Yeah I get it.   I used to think the same way.

[Stradling]

I am unfamiliar with the story, forgive my ignorance.

Go on...

[TobiasFunke]

Soto, do you have a video of him singing recently? If he does have a great voice still I'd go in a heart beat.

 Bro, he was awesome at the rock n roll hall of fame, it was on HBO, and he did three songs I think.

 

Peace Train, Father and Son, and one other (I can't recall.)

Strad, we are pretty close on musical likings, but this was one that came from my parents, so out of my normal range of likings.   Mellow hippy peace guy.

 

He converted to Islam, and quit singing.   He's also been smeared a little.   Guy is starting to become secular again, after being urged by his Imam that singing is not a violation of Islamic principles or some shit like that.

I don't think I laughed that hard at a youtue video in a while. Is that the guy from Key and Peele?

I read his whole Wikipedia and still can't find why he's dead to Tank.

 

Tank?

Absolutly beautiful. If tickets aren't righteous I'd love to go see him.

Racist!

[TobiasFunke]

First I thought it was Jamie Foxx and/or Forrest Whitaker

[Taylor]

Isn't it Reagins?

It's Nokia theater and I think 59-259. Not outrageous.

[TobiasFunke]

Cheap seats

[Lhalo]

I'll pay good money to see him play this live at the Nokia Center.

Can somebody remind me why I don't like this guy. He's such old news, I don't remember any longer.

He's so vain.

Tank?

 

what i remember is that he mouthed off about the US as well as chiming in about salmon rushdie, comments that were inappropriate and made him sound ungrateful. i remember him being unapologetic, too. 

[TobiasFunke]

That's pretty contrary of what it says on his wiki. But it doesn't matter, you have your opinions on the guy.
