The Hasidic icon sends his manager out into the audience before concerts looking for devotees wearing yarmulkes (skullcaps) so he can form a traditional prayer circle in his dressing room.

Matisyahu, real name MATTHEW MILLER, reveals, "That's called a minyan - it means 10 people praying together."
