I just found out for you DC lites that Rahat Fateh Ali Khan will be performing in DC on Sat 18th August in some venue called LISNER auditorium!

It should be a treat for you DC-lites. Tickets are avaiable at ticketmaster. Please if possible can someone find out rahat is performing in Chicago? Ofcourse Rahat cant fill up his Uncle place lekin this would be a good experience. Especailly Ustad Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan admirers like me.

Please if you could find out more info. on Rahat performing in Chicago. Otherwise I am sure to fly to DC and attend this event.

This is what Eddie Vedder from Pearl Jam had to say about Rahat. I am becoming a fan of this guy. Some of his music is as good as Ustaad Nusrat’s. This was taken from Rahat’s website.

**
In the tradition of Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, his nephew, and prodigy, Rahat carries on the Qawwali message. The vocal spiritualizations of the Qawwali singer is an art that has spanned seven centuries. I hope Rahat will touch us in the way Nusrat has and continue on the Ali Khan legacy."
