Bombay - Chennai tour !!!!!!!!
















Our outstation gigs to Mumbai and Chennai were amazing. It was a very hectic, tiring trip with no sleep whatsoever. But good fun!!! So we start with Bombay, Srijan had to drop out last minute so we played with Daniel who did an amazing job. Just had 2 days to learn all our songs. He nailed it all to the core. Throughout the way, in the airport, on the plane, it was good fun. Learnt alot about planes from Daniel. Anyhow, so we reached bombay and it was raining and became quite muggy and humid. Reached the hotel, and the four of us had a nice circle and bonding and laughing session. Re-strung our guitars and we were set. Reached the venue and it was totally crappy, the manager was being a bastard and we were so not enthu about playing there, but it was ok. While sound checking we noticed this kid going on clicking our pictures. We got sorted with our sound and then Medusa came on stage for sound-check. A few of my friends came for the show, who I had not met in ages, Vantika and Chitwan. Good fun meeting up with them. My maasi and uncle also showed up, and i got damn excited to meet them. Anyhow, Medusa started and were sounding great, they created an awesome vibe and started giving us a complex cuz we needed to keep up with them. Anyhow, we went on stage and played a "Mind-blowing" gig, had alot of fun, crowd was awesome...... Met the kid who was taking our pictures, his name is Sameer and he says that he has been a fan for a while, very sweet kid. Awesome night, by the time we got done, we stepped outside and the weather was insane, it was AMAZING. Got back to the hotel, and barely slept for a couple of hours and then we had to wake up cuz our flight to chennai was very early................ Wanna go to Bombay and play again SOOOOOOOO BAD!!!!!!!

Then we left bombay, said bye to Daniel, cuz he was gong back home. Landed in Chennai, met up with Srijan, went to the hotel, which was awesome. It was nothing like the crappy hotel in bombay. It was amazing. Ahhhh....... I got to eat some awesome Chettinad food \m/ :D. Got back to the hotel, tried to sleep but Srijan (the kid that he is) kept ringing our door bell so we couldnt sleep........Urgh!!!! Anyhow, Reached the venue, nice place, very chilled. Our gig didnt attract much of a crowd, but whoever were there, liked it. It was a very laid-back and chilled out gig, played a few songs that we had never practiced ever before. Met up with Sidhu and Arjun (JYG) and hung out with them. They took us out for more Chettinad food at night, Keema Dosas and all \m/ :D Awesome Stuff. Went back to the hotel, got drunk and stayed up. Left for the airport at 4:30 AM .......... Had the most uncomfortable flight back to delhi......

Reached Delhi, got home by 9:30 AM and slept for 21 hours straight!!!!!!!!! :D
