Ted and I just spent the month of may in Istanbul and Ankara. You can find pics and a travel journal on the Turku site at www.TurkuMusic.com/blog.htm
Ted took saz lessons while we were there and is selling the saz he bought for the lessons. I'll try to get a picture of that up soon.

Tue, July 17, 2007 - 8:53 AMGreat Blog! Thanks for sharing your experience over there. I feel your pain on missing Gogol Bordello, Rajni and I missed them by a day when they played in Arlington last year. "Start wearing purple" is sort of our unofficial theme song.
