#1 The party claimed that the concert comes a day after the Muslim holy day commemorating the Prophet Mohammed’s ascension to heaven and therefore "insults Islam."

NB: Not the same day, but the day after. It's like claiming the day after Easter to be a holy day.

Are we sure we want them dancing. .

On dervishes' heads are tall, conical felt hats signifying the tombstones of their egos. They wear long, white robes with full skirts which represent the shrouds of their egos. Over those are voluminous black cloaks representing their wordly tombs which they remove at the beginning of the ceremony to symbolize their deliverance from the cares and attachments of this world.
