Red Baraat at Barbès Brooklyn
Posted by Troy | Filed under Music, Travel

You can’t visit New York without catching some live music, and you can’t catch live music like this anywhere but New York.
Cram an Indian marching band, a jazz ensemble, a funk band and 100 audience members (of every race and creed) into a 200 sq. ft. room.
That is Red Baraat at Barbès in Brooklyn.
Thanks Paul for encouraging me to attend.

It is Brooklyn

This picture could have been taken anywhere.
Catching a bit of air conditioning and cold beverages on a hot August day in anytown U.S.A.
But it isn’t anywhere.
It’s Brooklyn.
Diversity everywhere.
Flea markets (with tall guys that refurbish bikes and small guys that hand-print t-shirts).
Life-changing corn and rainwater toilets.
It’s Brooklyn.
More pics on my portfolio blog.
