Trance is catching on now in Afghanistan.
Here's Habib getting down after a hard day of work out in the poppy fields to the amazement of an American GI who's been out making sure no Taliban are lurking around to bother him.
Heard that the opium production business is booming.

The Baluch are a people without a geography, a culture that has connections to India, Pakistan, and Afghanistan, and they are purported to have been influential in Iran in the 10th century. An argument could be made (and is in the liner notes) for their predecessors being proto-Gypsies, although there is plenty to suggest otherwise. But the music bears traits similar to Middle Eastern Gypsy music, as well as the music of Rajasthan. The ensemble here consists of singers, sorud (fiddle), tamburag (lute), and a unique mechanical dulcimer called benju. The central instrument is the sarud, a fiddle made of wood and a goat skin for a sounding board. It has a bright, thin, open sound that dominates the tone of the music throughout. The songs recorded for this CD include wedding and social songs and lively festival numbers, some danceably rhythmic, others slightly trancelike. The playing is often vivid and passionate, but a few tracks sound like they were walked though in a haze |

Dang, y'all are missing the point in the original thread, so let me spell it out for you. We (US and allies) are hunting down Taliban and protecting average Afghan way of life, which is back to farming poppy fields. Poppy is used to make heroin and it's production ultimately hurts our society (US and allies). The Taliban pretty much curtailed alot of poppy field production when they were in power. So what's wrong with this picture?
:cool:
