I don't blame them. Zamfir is a polarizing figure. So what did he do besides be annoying?
To: Cinnamon Girl
I've heard the strangest stories about this guy and international intrigue, but I also thought he was dead...

My God! What is going on here? Is the Zamphir some insideous form of the "Stalin Organ" of WWII fame? What can be the implicit threat of reed pipes to Israel?

Thanks...... now cleaning up a mouthful of chianti from the keyboard and monitor.

If they try that same crap with Lou Rawls, I'm gonna be in their face like nobody's business.

I hear that the promoter is offering a last minute substitute, Michael Jackson and his latest balcony dangle act!

I have a friend who does an incredible impression of Louis Armstrong on the panflute.
I can't describe it. But, it is damned funny.

LOL! Oh, believe you me, somebody's going to come along on the thread really soon to declare they love Zamfir more than life itself, and that I'm wrong wrong wrong.
That's OK though. I know in my heart that Zamfir is a menace.
To: vikingchick; hole_n_one
I have a hunch that Israeli security was on to Zamphir for something a little more nepharious than his churched up kazoo.
To: hole_n_one
FOFL ....
OK .. Rawls I've heard of .. but who is this flute dude??

The ministry later noted that Zamfir was denied entrance because his music sucked.

It's a pretty sad commentary on the state of the world when an internationally renowned master of the Pan flute like Zamfir can't travel unimpeded.
Sad bump...
To: Cinnamon Girl
Is he one of them religion of peace guys?
To: vikingchick
Yeah, dude, gimme Zamfir, John Tesh, Kenny G. (if that's his real name,) and Barry Manilow, and I'm in pop heaven!
By the way, have you read the latest Danielle Steel yet?

..He should have played the Jew's Harp.
