Noa and Mira Awad

ON SUNDAY NIGHT WE WENT BACK TO CENTENNIAL HALL
AND SAW NOA AND MIRA AWAD.  ERNIE WAS OFF AND CAME
TOO BUT I DIDN'T TAKE A PICTURE OF US ALL.  THE LAST
TWO TIMES SOMEONE CAME UP TO ME LIKE I WAS
FIRING A GUN.  BUT ALSO I MOSTLY FORGOT.

NOA AND MIRA AWAD ARE A SINGING DUET FROM
ISRAEL WHO ARE TRYING TO SHOW THROUGH MUSIC
THEIR BELIEFS IN PROMOTING PEACE IN THE REGION.
I BELIEVE NOA IS ISRAELI AND MIRA IS PALESTINIAN.
THEY COMBINE ISRAELI AND ARABIC LYRICS IN SONGS.

THEY ALSO DID SUCH CLASSICS AS "WE CAN
WORK IT OUT" AND "IMAGINE" BY THE BEATLES.

AS YOU CAN IMAGINE, THE ENTIRE AUDIENCE WAS
JEWISH PRETTY MUCH.  IT REMINDED ME A LOT OF
AMANDA SINCE SHE SINGS AS WELL.  I THINK SHE
WOULD'VE ENJOYED IT A LOT.
