Dear Diary,
As usual we as the 404 Sapthagiri gang went out and partied last weekend to the fullest. Where else can we party when the biggest party in recent times was happening at Palace Grounds, Bangalore, just like the past two years – The Great Indian Octoberfest organized by KingFisher. Unfortunately, some key members (Naveen and Abhi) could not turn up for the party. But we went and enjoyed for all of us and all the guys we missed.
To tell a short story long, oops. Let me start again. To tell a long story short we were a bit tired what with playing cricket that morning for about four hours or so after a long break of inactivity. However, our enthusiasm was never stained with aches and pains. So we reached around 8 PM to the sounds of Deep Purple’s Highway Star being played on the Rock Show stage. Aum the band was doing a great job of the song with the lead singer jumping around topless and the lead guitarist playing the lead pieces quite quite well indeed. You can watch their video at YouTube too. What a perfect start for the evening.
And then some band was playing metal to the likes of Mudvayne, SOAD, Slipknot, etc. Not too bad. But the vocalist was not doing a great job. Maybe he just had a sore throat and having a bad voice day.
And then came in David Pascal, the Chennai based singer, with his band (I guess). And that was heaven. I tell you, you have to be there to appreciate his voice. They just set the stage on fire with their music. The songs the played were the likes of Sting (Message in a bottle), Oasis (Wonderwall), RHCP (Aeroplane), Bryan Adams (18 till I die), etc. It was a great pleasure watching them sing and perform on stage. All accomplished musicians by the way they played and sounded. And, David Pascal, just sang away to glory and had the crowd mesmerized with quality vocals.
And then some DJ from UAE came on stage and practically set the whole grounds on fire with Dance music. It was one huge Disco. People gyrating and dancing all over the grounds. Lasted for more than an hour and a half by which time we left.
Pros:
- Vijay Mallya rocks and he knows how to organize parties. All hail to the king of good times
- The event was organized well with the beer flowing
- The food stalls were really good. Lots of tasty food
- Even the urinals were better than last time
Cons:
- The front stage audience jumping onto the stage for a minute under the limelights. It really cheesed some musicians and most of us to see them going wild when the musicians were on stage.
Until next time, dear diary!
