One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
At one point while I was in India, my parents, their students and I were sitting at a train station in Varanasi waiting for a train to Kolkata. I started playing guitar, my dad started on the harmonica and my mom started singing, "The Varanasi Train Station Blues." A massive crowd of people surrounded us, stunned and amazed. I doubt they had ever heard The Blues before.
I also played soccer with Robert Downey Jr. in Sting's kitchen once.
