OUR NEXT SHOW::::::

A NIGHT OF EXCELLENT FOOD, DANCE AND MUSIC FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY

My band Drumsum will be playing at The Star of India Restaurant on Friday, June 27th.  Dancing to our music will be Dancers from Obsidian Butterfly.  The $20 cost includes all you can eat buffet (which opens at 7:30 pm) and the show (which starts at 8 pm).

FOR RESERVATIONS CALL   916 967-1550

THE STAR OF INDIA Restaurant:
Locate at 8121 Madison Ave. in Fair Oaks  (corner of Madison Ave and Fair Oaks Ave.).  This is the best India restaurant in the Sacramento area!  The food is varied and cooked in a healthy way.  Plenty of vegetables for the vegetarian and vegans.  Though this is a buffet, you can still order from the menu.
If you haven’t tried Indian food, this is the perfect way to start.  Sample everything!  Like most all Indian restaurants, the food has been ‘spiced down’ (as in HOT!!, not in flavor) for America’s love of the bland.
A very large selection of India’s finest beers are available along with teas and soft drinks.

Obsidian Butterfly     (www.sacredfiredance.com)

Obsidian Butterfly is a performance ART troupe that uses different modalities of ART as a form of creative self  expression, healing, and spiritual growth.
They create performances that weave our many talents into one production. Their shows are an alchemical blend of ecstatic expression through movement and dance, poetic storytelling, music, fire, ritual, ancient mystery, and everyday life. No show is the same.
The end result is a beautiful dance and a mind blowing experience. 
Their usual venue is to dance with fire props.  For this show, due to safety constraints, they will be using Glow Toys and other non fire props.  (For an idea of what glow toys can do, visit http://www.flowtoys.com/).

Blending ancient instruments with electronics, they perform songs from trance inducing rhythms to jump up dance beats.
