Diwali 2009 Pictures

A little late I know, but the pics were just lying around and so…

There were showers of blessing that day, and badly ringing ears. We could hear firecrackers going boom all day and night.

Some crazy settings with my camera I suppose, and hence the light delay in the photograph. Cool effect.

A picture of one of our rockets taking off…

And some lights . UFO?

Fosters Aoc Party!!!!

Filed Under: Bangalore, Entertainment, Events, Weekend getaway

Oct.17, 2009

Hello everyone. I am Nafisa. This is my very first post as a guest blogger on Anwin’s Blog.

Me, Anwin, Diana & Anoop went to Fosters Art of chilling Poolside party last weekend on 10 th of Oct at Lalit Ashok Bangalore city Hotel. We landed at the party on an empty stomach, so the first thing we did was attack the food. There was lot of mouth watering options for meat eaters – fresh clams, Beef steaks, Pork ribs….etc. They had arranged spray paints and a huge canvas board at one corner for the crowd to paint their thoughts; we too did a little scribbling on it

“IndiBlogger.in Chilled here”

Afternoon started with little showers of rain, Foster’s Hat came in handy and saved us from getting drenched. After having a satisfying lunch we sat down for Beer to chill our self from hot sun, the pool looked so tempting that we all wanted to soak our body in the water, unfortunately we didn’t come prepared.

Anoop and Diana Chilling out….

Later, Bharath & Naveen joined us with their companions. For a change there was a band playing fusion music, which was ok but didn’t blend quiet well with the atmosphere.

Squeezing to fit in the frame Indiblogger team and friends…..

Thanks Diana for the pics

Mr. Big, An Energetic And Refreshing Concert Experience

Filed Under: Bangalore, Concert, Events, Music, Video

Oct.12, 2009

True to the expectations, Mr. Big concert was a real experience in Hard Rock, Metal and Rock music. It was a very tightly packed 2 hour musical affair at Palace Grounds last Saturday.

First we went off to the Foster’s Art of Chilling Poolside party at Lalit Ashok. There we ate a lot of awesome Beef steaks and Pork ribs. Yummmmm!!!

Then we went off to Mr. Big concert. When the lights began to change Mr. Big started the concert with a song we didn’t expect – Daddy, Brother, Lover, Little Boy. Wow. That was the beginning of a very energetic and lively rock concert. Some of the songs they played are from my previous post about songs I wanted to hear at the concert – notably Just Take My Heart, Colorado Bulldog (that was freakin’ awesome), Wild World (Of, course), Green Tinted Sixties Mind, To Be With You, and some other songs like Temperamental.

Some highlights of the concert:

1) Eric (the singer) turned 49 that day and celebrated his birthday on stage with other band members, and us, the crowd

2) Billy Sheehan (Bassist and Founding member) and Paul Gilbert (guitarist) showed their guitar prowess at various times between songs and with solo performances.

3) Billy Sheehan picked up the mike and gave his bass guitar to Eric and went on to sing a cover of Deep Purple’s Smoke on the Water. Electric!!! Pat Torpey took the guitars while Paul took to drums for this part. Then Pat Torpey took the mike and started singing the remaining verse of Smoke on the Water. Very nicely done.

4) Mr. Bid did two encores… hehehehe. Anoop said they will definitely stay for two encores, and it came to pass. We loved it, even though we thought it weird

5) Above all, we got to enjoy an almost front seat after only paying for the 800 tickets. Why? Some rockers broke down the 800 / 1300 barrier for us. Ha ha ha ha ha!

What was my take out of the concert? 2 hours of non-stop rock, and lots of adventures before, during and after

A very low res video of Billy Sheehan and Paul Gilbert playing Guitar as if their lives depended on it
