I think that would be fantastic, The Bob Marley Biennial Art and Culture Exhibition..Great! but they need to back it up. it will increase the interest of non African in Mali. The missing link in African mass events are the title names, the Branding & Re-branding. They do not know or don't have the visibility magnetic devices to attract and maintain a crowd. America have thousands of Bob marley event titles. 'Because we do not study Entertainment Marketing we have NO clue how to make stars, how to host mass media events & canpainge. Today every event is like the World cup or the Olympics. Global attaction title is the key to success in todays world. I am planning a tour of West Africa with Roger Steffens the official Biographer of Bob Marlety and organizer of The Bob Marley day in Los Angeles to Africa including Gambia & the West africa region next year. Maybe after this tour I will live in The Gambia, Mali or Senegal. But I want to work for the Gambia in this area of artists and event developemernts. I will need you for more contacts or I will let you mail Roger for additional suppoort. Speaking Englisah is gonna be the problem in Mali, because I remembered when James Brown used to sing bottom-dollar and non English folks from Senegal, mali and Guinea would pronounce it BARAM BAMA (sama baram bama) in place of bottom-dollar! I think that we will get a translation device in text or in audio. ________________________________ From: Haruna Darbo <[log in to unmask]> To: [log in to unmask] Sent: Sat, November 27, 2010 10:03:19 PM Subject: Re: Bob Marley on African Unity Aye Aye Ace.
