MP3 SPI bus transfer question

Hi -
Thanks so much for taking a look at what's up. I tried your code but didn't have any luck. Music still played but no lights. Then I tried moving break; around to a few places and what happens in one instance is kind of promising:

If I put it here:

         //enable interrupts
        MP3player.resumeDataStream(); break;

The lights turn on (they don't do the color wipe). Then, after the length of time that would be the light sequence- the mp3 plays. The lights just stay on. What do you think?
