Matisyahu Asks Concertgoes To Pray · May 2, 07:48 AM by Matisjahu
Matisyahu isn’t shy about his jewish faith, in fact he invites Jewish fans to join him backstage before the show to pray alongside him.
At a recent concert he sent his manager to go out into the audience in search of people wearing yarmulkes and invite them backstage to for a pray circle.
Matisyahu, whose real name is Matthew Miller says, “That’s called a minyan, it means 10 people praying together.”
Personally I don’t think theirs anything wrong with Matisyahu observing his beliefs though I can imagine their are a few people out their who would see this as favortism.
In any event its his show so he can do as he pleases same as those who disagree don’t have to buy tickets, I for one intend to keep going.
