es, the scene is set for gui - tar dynamite, Shafi, to Ymove into action, with his new band. The happening place will be the popular Rhythm & Blues nightclub, down Duplication Road, Colombo, on Saturday, May 16th, from 9.30 pm onwards. Although Shafi is being quite modest in saying that it’s going to be just another regular club night, one can vouch, for sure, that the music is going to be something dif - ferent and, of course, something to look forward to, with great expecta - tion. Gravity is NEW to the local showbiz scene. And something new is always welcomed. Also, with Shafi, at the controls, nothing is hafi impossible. S As was EXCLUSIVELY reposted, in last week’s “Star Track’ column, Shafi and Gravity plan to show music lovers their versatility by introducing a repertoire that will contain, not only English music, but also Spanish and, of course, our local Talking Body dance music.
