Barsaat
This is a song written about the time Arth had its first performance at the Sunday Jam, when it rained cats and dogs. Out of cheap thrills, we decided that we'd write a song about the rains, and what you can see above is what happened, as a result of that. Enjoy!
Flashback
Following is a post I had written on IMDB as a movie review for 'Swades', soon after I had seen the movie, in July 2005. I was trying to see how much I have changed since then, and the only thing I can say for sure is that I make consious, albeit unsuccessful attempts to write shorter sentences. Everything else remains the same. The original [...]
The Third Bangalore Photowalk
There is a significant possibility that this post of mine is redundant, simply because there's justifiable proof that most people who've followed my LJ have invariably added Skimpy's Livejournal to their RSS feed reader.

Although Mysore will always be city no.1 so far as I am concerned for the rest of my life, I've grown to love Bangalore so much more after a weekend trip to Chennai. Three days in Chennai on band related work and within twelve hours of landing there, I was pining away for Bangalore and its [...]
Southpaw Guitars
I know, the term Southpaw is usually used in a sports context, and not so much with respect to playing musical instruments. However, I've been intending to pick up a new instrument, and while searching for it, I've stumbled upon a whole host of guitars made specifically for left-handed people. Gone are the days when Paul McCartney or Jimi [...]
An Appeal to the Indian Railways
