Yesterday evening, after 5 days of fasting, I stopped the hunger strike, with a dinner with friends here at home and so much solidarity for the Palestinian people in Gaza. Lobna Al Lamii, a Palestinian girl who lives in Istanbul, took my place and is now fasting with Ahmet Faruk Keçeli who lives in Bafra on the Turkish Black Sea. She will continue untill sunday night, when, during the tribute concert to Fabrizio De Andrè, with a kind of ceremony, she will pass the baton to another boy.
Meanwhile, yesterday we held a press conference here in Istanbul and today the news of our campaign has appeared in newspapers in Turkey. Here are 2 links to websites who reported the news: haber7.com and radyomix.fm.

While today I was interviewed by Radio Onda D'Urto.
So now I'm trying to return my forces to the concert on Sunday evening. Here's the poster of the concert.
The concert will be held in the 10th anniversary of the death of Fabrizio De Andrè. I will sing his songs and playing classical guitar, while Ceyun play the clarinet, the sax and bouzuki, Özgür guitar and acoustic bass and Çağdaş the accordion. Özhan will help us reading in Turkish some De Andrè lyrics.
As I said during the concert there will be a small ceremony for our campaign of "Chain Hunger Strike" and for the Palestinian population of Gaza.
The concert will be followed on this site with a streaming video camera.
