Gaia unravels two ancient streams of stars in the Milky Way
The two streams, named Shakti and Shiva, helped form the infant Milky Way. Both are so ancient that they likely formed before even the oldest parts of our present-day galaxy’s spiral arms and disc.
This image shows the location and distribution of Shakti (yellow) and Shiva (blue) stars throughout the #MilkyWay.
absolutely stunned to have just experienced nearly an hour of #BelaFleck solo, a peak virtuoso display of sheets of sound. which i did not know there would be an opening act, much less of that caliber !
and i still have the headliners to go ... #LiveMusic
Hey #Portland#oregon#pdx and nearby people, I have one extra very, very good ticket for Shakti tomorrow (Tues 9/5) night at the Schnitz. It's not cheap, in fact it's pretty expensive unless you compare it to Taylor Swift or Beyoncé tickets, in which case it's extremely reasonable - but we might be able to work out a deal of some kind if you're on a budget and would like to go. The upside is that #shakti is very likely to be some of the best #music you've ever seen in your life, or ever will.
@mrcompletely OmG just watched the Ryman #Shakti video that was astoundingly fabulous ~ I have to think they'll extend this tour and keep this rolling...they have to right? too incredible to stop not to mention they will fill auditoriums everywhere they go
Tonight #Shakti will host a #livestream from the Ryman Auditorium in #Nashville. John Scofield opening on solo electric guitar. Should be a spellbinding night of #music and well worth a watch - particularly for those who can't make it to one of these gigs. Neat and unexpected opportunity.
Hey #Portland#PDX#Oregon#music people, I know of multiple tickets available for #Shakti here next Tuesday, spendy but good seats, highly recommend not missing this show if you can swing it
Strongly cosign the #Shakti hype. Last time through twenty years ago was one of the best shows I've seen out of over a thousand lifetime. Peak #music experience. Seeing them again in a couple weeks and I couldn't be more thrilled. It is, as noted, pretty damn expensive, but if you can make it happen you should.
@mrcompletely@mikebabyak Shakti! Music doesn't get much more exciting, joyous, or impressive than this... This unit makes magic out there. Really enjoy the sound of John's guitar synth for this outing. Highly recommend catching one #music#livemusic#shakti
