I had never been to Hyderabad before, so i was quite excited to go and play there. We just had a gig in delhi a week before the hyderabad show, but it somehow felt like we haven't played in years. I guess we were traveling by air after the chennai sector, so it seemed like a long time. Pilla and I left for the airport and we were damn excited about the gig and the trip in general. Surprisingly everyone reached on time. Anyhow, got in the plane and ate some CRAZY breakfast.... Good fun. When we landed in Hyderabad, I was amazed to see the airport. I have never seen an airport THAT amazing. It could even give competition to a lot of airports abroad. Anyhow, we caught the shuttle to Begampet and met up with sushmit and reached the hotel. CRAZY circles as usual!!!! We just hung out at the hotel and then went to 10 Downing Street to check it out. Best part is, ANYTHING we ordered there was on the house even before soundcheck and all.... CRAZY shit. Pilla and Bindal got so drunk in the afternoon and I was sober, so it was funny to be hanging out with 2 drunks. But the highlight of the afternoon was the HOOOOOOOOOT CHICK in red...... heheheheheh ..... She was most definitely our "Random gig girl" for Hyderabad. Went back to the hotel and had a BLAST. It was just the 4 of us chilling out and doing freaky things ....... We laughed our asses off. I wish i could tell you why we laughed so much, but we prefer to keep those things within the band :p. Anyhow, time came for us to leave for the venue and so we did .... Soundcheck and all was smooth. A few problems with the snare tone and Pilla's tone, but we sorted it out. Now we realise Golu's importance in the band. A sound engineer can actually make or break your gig. "Native Tongue" started playing and things were moving ..... There were quite a few people there. I got to meet an old friend 'Neha' over there, damn sweet of her to show up for the gig. Anyhow, time came for us to take the stage and we started playing, the stage was quite good for a pub gig ..... Crowd was having a good time and so were we. There was some CRAZY moshing as well. Played a good show, although my voice was sooooooooo fucked, I couldnt hit any high notes, I had a terrible cold. But since nobody seemed to notice, i didnt really care anymore. After the gig, I met Pilla's friends Manasi, Tania and Mani ..... Very sweet of them to come for our show. Tania made me so happy by singing along with our lyrics and asking for "My Bitch" hehehehehehehe ....... Met up with Anirudh from "Blend" as well. After the gig we were sooooo tired, but we got 2 encores, so we just decided to play them. Loved the gig. After the gig we all hung out back at our room, the band, Sushmit, Anirudh, Tania, Manasi, Mani and their friend (the phone dude ...... heheheheheh) we were all chilling and drinking (well ..... everyone except Srijan and myself). Had a great time, eventhough we never got to try Hyderabadi Biryani for which I will never forgive Mani (heheheheheheheh ..... :p). I would seriously love to come to Hyderabad and play again.
Next morning, Bindal, Sushmit and I were leaving VERY early.... 6 am flight back to delhi. So we got up very early and caught the shuttle back to the KICKASS airport, checked in etc etc ..... I got the middle seat, I was sooooooooo pissed off because of that and Bindal was nicely gloating cuz he got the window right next to me...... hehehehehe..... We were quite hungry, specially Bindal and we ate THE WORST chicken burger possible.... left it after a few bites. Anyhow, we got on the plane with HOT air hostesses :D and i got to my seat and SLEPT the whole way. Crazy stuff i tell you :D ......... But neither of us knew that this was gonna be our last gig for the pubrock tour because we cancelled the Bangalore gig.
So I would like to say THANK YOU to ALL those people in ALL those cities who took out time to come and watch us play. We loved each and every city and would want to play there again. We wanna thank you for all the support and all the cheering and all the moshing that you guys have done. We love each and every one of you ....... Hope to play for you guys very soon. And of course I wanna thank RSJ for giving us the opportunity of this tour, Amit Saigal for coming to our show in Simla and chilling with us, Kingfisher for ALL the free beer \m/ :D and definitely a special thanks to Sushmit and Sid for making our trip so much easier. Sid was only there in Chennai and would have been there in Bangalore, but Sushmit was there for all the other cities..... It was awesome hanging out with u two and thanks for everything and all your help and all the pics and videos etc ..... Cheers
Pubrock was AMAZING, we had so much fun and we (the band) became sooo much closer as friends as well ...... Our line-up is the perfect line-up and I would NEVER want any of you 3 to ever leave the band....... You guys rock !!!!!
Cheers
