8/21/2011 FIDA's Sunday Supper @ The Coffee Cave!

There was an air of peace and tranquility during this musical supper at the Coffee Cave.  We dined on everything from The Player's Association to Mos Def to Sylvester to Sergio Mendez and Prince.  Everyone was in a festive mood and we fellowshipped, sang, rejoiced and remembered a time when.  It is a blessing to see that we are still together after 10 or 20 years (for some of us) and that we are on this journey together.   Thanks to the FIDA Members who came out: Stephanie & Tony (As Long As You Love Me-True Example), our new member, Tammy, lil' sis Edie, Renita and guest, Vanita, Ms. Mina, Sajadah, Kyeatta and daughter Layla worked the dance floor! B-Day Boy Polo (without you WOW! Thanks! Love ya much), Gabe D. (who came in on one of his tunes!), Kevin & Nadyrrah (Wow...you made another one!), Anetra (wifey got her life on da floor!), Billie (sorry for cutting off "To Each His Own"), Linda (YOU LOOK AMAZING!), Rabine, the legend Naeem Johnson (think you can drop the antiques for us one day???), Sekou & Troy (we gotta sign y'all up to FIDa and make it official), Deidre Covington for holding down the door (Sorry Tracey...I forgot to contact you for this one), Mr. Ras Anthony for being Ras Anthony hosting like none other.   Drew and Mikeal (the nephews...hope we gave you the "break beats").  The NYC crew: Lisa, Ruthy, Lawrence and my two new musical brothers...thank you, thank you, thank you...much love to you all and just WOW!  To Donna Edwards, our guest story teller, she reached into her bag and pulled out some goodies.  Thank you my dear, it was such a pleasure.   To all the guests especially Darryl and the Mrs. they got out of their bed to come and fellowship with FIDA...thank you, thank you, thank you...We missed you Roc Santiago (you were supposed to tell your story on da decks!!!), Rahbu and a slew of others...no worries...prayerfully the next go around.  Thank you John & Crystal for believing in what we do and supporting musical diversity.   If I missed anyone, I'm deeply sorry.  I trust all had a great time and got home safely in the rain that night.  Remember to always walk in love and peace.   May Yahweh bless you and keep you close.
