Bangalore Palace Grounds Concerts – A Survival Guide
I recently had a chance to attend a press conference that formally announced that Metallica would be playing in Gurgaon at the end of next month as part of the F1 Rocks extravaganza. The press conference was sort of redundant because pretty much everyone I know has already picked up their tickets for the show and will be attending it either in [...]
Blank Slate
An eventful weekend saw the as-yet-unnamed band in Gurgaon that I am part of, along with two other classmates from B-school and a super tech-savvy doctor getting together on sunday evening to sit and work on songs.

The video has been shot by the drummer Glenn's brother Gren, which explains why it seems as though we're sessions musicians with a drummer, as opposed to a full fledged band. [...]
