All good things must come to an end and after performing in 13 US cities to packed halls and converted fans this team of musical minstrels will return to Nepal after appearing in one last mega-concert – where else but in the DC area – where it all started!Having learned some lessons from the ANA Concert please note the following features:
1. A dance area to accommodate hundreds without blocking the view of those who prefer to remain seated
2. Deep Shrestha will come in after 2 opening numbers by the band and will perform many of his classic hits.
Time permitting he will return towards the end.
3. No alcohol will be permitted (by campus law)
4. Concert will start on time
On the request of the musicians, this Farewell Concert will donate 20% of the net ticket sales to the Pashupati-Buddha Mandir/NECC.
