“The other reason, is that the colors that are played with are the colors of spring, Lord Krishna (another Hindu deity) asked his mother why he was dark and the girl he loved, Radha, was fair, and so his mother, Yashoda, told him, ‘Why don’t you put some color over her face and she will become like you,’ and he took her seriously and started playing with colors (as a prank). So that became a tradition that every year people would play with colors on that day.”.

“Steve just had us so trained,” she said. Back to the benefit. Lamplight hadn’t played together since 1971. Some of the members hadn’t seen each other in more than 40 years. A couple flew in from out of state. “I think the dream every musician has is to play again with their first band,” Hurwitz said. “That was my gift to Steve.”. Sage’s first thought was more practical. “What are we going to play?” he asked. Like old times, Lamplight powered through a handful of songs, one of which can be viewed on Sage’s online GoFundMe account. That account, with a goal of $75,000 to offset medical expenses and lost income, has reached nearly $40,000. A silent auction at the benefit raised about $30,000 (a Paul Reed Smith guitar signed by the members of Journey fetched $3,500).
