Salam,

Agar Afwan as ya nes, ech parwa nes bechika harakak-a u bikhi sahist. It doesn't matter where an artist is from, in this case the work is perfectly correct as testified by hundreds of natives. Ali Shah

We appreciate your comments whatever your beliefs. But from now, we will only allow comments that are not obscene, insulting or abusive. We will remove any remarks against political persons, entities or whatever or whoever they are whether right of wrong, good or bad. We will also remove remarks praising those responsible for cultural genocide through eradication of traditional arts traditions even if those those persons are widely popular so-called artists. Thank you, Dr. Lloyd Miller

Friends, it is important to realize that we in the West are releasing deadly poisons on the world so, like the Surgeon General's warning against tobacco, we artists must warn everyone against the poison Satanic 'music' and dance that big multinational corporations use to destroy all cultures, even ours. People are only backward if they don't see this worldwide conspiracy against us all. In this regard we are all helpless children with no ability to discern good from evil or to oppose the Dajal.

Salam. Ha sa'ib, ziad khub nest ka dukhtaran-e Afghani khodeshan jelo-ya mardom raqs konand. Mugur raqs-a asil-a sahi digar chiz ast. Muhem as ka tamadon wa kultur-a Afghanistan bemanad zira dar in ruzha hame chiz az bein mirawad. Hamla-ya elektroni wa qarbi dunya ra chatal w kharab mikona. It is important to keep artistic traditions of ancient cultures alive in the face of the western and electronic invasion in recent years. So as non-Afghans we try our best to help out. Dr. Lloyd Miller

Salam,

thank you for your kind remarks. We spend 24/7, sometimes up til 3 in the morning, working on trying to save the last tiny vestiges of dying traditional Eastern dance and music which is being destroyed by electronics and the sex craze. We appreciate your support; it will take a really big change in the world's situation and atitude to save these arts treasures. Dr. Lloyd Miller

Wow after reading all the comments. It is very sad!!! Art is Art!!!! Enjoy its beauty!!! Dr. Lloyd Miller I am an educated Muslim Afghan, just want to say you are all doing great work! Please dont take it to heart the ignorance of some idividual afg. Man breaks my heart to see the hate of afg...cuz that is why our country is in the state that its in. Keep it postive people!!!!

Salam zalemdel, bsyar tashakor bare gapha-ye shirinetan wa mo khosh darim ka be New York safar konim wa program ejra konim. Thank you for your kind remarks. We have visited the east coast for a few concerts. We had a No Ruz show on the Persian Voice of America and a concert for an Iranian group at Columbia University. For such events we have two musicians and four dancers. We have two of our dancers living on the East Coast, so we mainly need to transport 4 people from Salt Lake City. Thanks, LM

KUDOS!!!!

Excellent dancing! it's such a pleasure and honor to see someone who is non-Afghan to do such a phenomenal performance. I am truly humbled by your dedication and motivation to learn the dance and art of Afghanistan. Warm heart appreciation!!!

I look forward to your other videos, and perhaps a concert tour in NYC/NJ area.

@worldartsdocmiller Okay thank you. Just wanna be sure because the first is very nice music, so thought that maybe it was from a song :D

[worldartsdocmiller]

@shahid4ever12 The music is a combination of various typical Logari themes. The dancer is not native Afghan but was trained by various Afghan experts from different cities. Dr. Lloyd Miller

[shahid4ever12]
