I really got a sense of what this means to you and the place of Dabke in your culture, and I wanted to know more, which is always a good sign.

Although I live in Australia I have Lebanese ancestors, and the Dabke was always an important part of celebrations amongst my parents and grandparents. Until I listened to your story I didn't really understand the significance of the Dabke in your society. In an age where young people in the West are more engrossed in Playstations and mobile phones, you provided a wonderful insight into the history of the dance and its important place in your cultural history. I'm full of admiration for a young man like you, at 14, understanding the importance & significance of something that should not fall into obscurity and should always remind the youth of today of their rich, cultural ancestory. Thanks mate! keep up the good work. PS: You have a great voice for radio! Hi Miras,

Never heard of Dabke before and not being much of a dancer, I'd never really thought that it could be so important. Interesting stuff. Keep up the good work. Also, do you have any videos of Dabke? I'd like to see it in action. Cheers, J Miras, thanks. Never heard of Dabke before and not being much of a dancer, I’d never really thought that it could be so important. Interesting stuff.
