Date: Yesterday,
Venue: ABN grounds, IITR.
The first band to perform was something called musafir...What a piece of crap that was.....The worst performance I have ever seen. Mostly they just covered some songs..And in the process they murdered the songs...cheap stuff..pretty ordinary...Certainly not better than a decent college band.If that was not enough, it was sickening when they performed 'bc sutta'...I don't have any liking for stuffs like that...Damn...they sucked.I guess they could have done better...
Then, it was the turn for Silk Route - the reason I was there at the concert.It was a good show.Silk Route's unique style and rich sound was enthralling. They started with Jaadugar, then came a previously unheard song in English, called The Wind, then Sapne, Saujha, Boondein, Sabse Peeche Hum Khade - all my favourites and off course Dooba Dooba. Also they sang Chakkar Ghor hai, Tumse Hi (from Jab We Met)and another unheard song called Dosti.It was a great experience to see one of my my favourite bands performing only a few feet away. Guitars, mouth organ, saxophone, tabla, drums and a soothing voice with brilliant original compositions that in someways you close to nature and close to yourself....that was music for the soul...Though I ended up inhaling tonnes of dust in the process(some people did dance..even to Sapne, Boondein ..donno how!!! i guess ..they danced just for the sake of it...for some people it doesn't matter if it's heavy metal or bollywood item no or light music...they danced because they had to.!!!)...Whatever..all in all...mazaa aa gaya.

Sapne hain..sooni aankhen...Jane kyoun kho gaye...
Socha Tha Saahil Pe Milega...Thehra sa Ek Pal...Ek Pal...
Chaandni hain ye raatein...fir bhi tute sitaare ...
Dhoondhte hain ye zameen pe.. Thehra sa Ek Pal...
Andheri daastaan ...Kho Gaye Kahan...
Hum to rah gaye fir wahin
Aati hai ek sadaa ...Waadiyon se kahin...
Ajnabi rahon pe milega...Thehra sa Ek Pal...Ek Pal...

Hmmm...
That might have been some experience :)
Arre meri bhi bachpan se tamanna hai ki kisi acche se rock band ka live performance dekhun but it still remains a wish, inspite of the fact that i m at bangy.
I never manage to convince people to join me and I hate to go alone.
U r lucky :)
