Yes, the clapping and screaming from some people was unwarranted and did put a dampener on things. if everyone would take care of their own behaviour and actions such problems wouldn't arise. but a good 2 days nonetheless.

I thought the speeches by Dr. Zakir Naik, Yousaf Estes, Sohaib Webb and Yasir Qadi and my fav Yvonne Ridley were fantastic (especially the private lectures/workshops they held). And look at the number of people that took the shahada on stage and back stage (around 18 people i believe), SubhanAllah! A member of the Islam channel team even paid the travelling expense for a non-muslim woman to fly over from Germany as she could not afford it...and the result...she too gave a shahada!

Now, i dont agree with sisters screaming at the top of their lungs..but thats not the organisers fault. some artists(like Uncle Yusuf) did request that no one scream after his performance. Its pretty straightforward though...if people didnt like the music they could have removed themself from the hall. If they didnt like free mixing that was apparently going on then they couldve gone home. they should try segregating 30,000 people people always complain about the organisers not segregating enough and allowing the genders to mix, but people should also realise its down to them too-they should sit in the sections marked for thema nd police thier own actions.
