”I turned back to see his hands playing the drum, right then and there everything else in the world melted away and I was drawn into his space - a powerful space - I forgot everything else I knew and I stopped, my body stopped moving. Maybe it was a trance, maybe it was shock, maybe I was simply in awe, I genuinely knew I was entering what I could explain as another dimension
I felt he had opened the door into another place in time. I could see and feel ripples around the drum, like you would when throwing a stone into still water.
Whatever and whenever this was, I knew he commanded it, he manifested it and took me there.”
