They've cancelled it. Incidentally, rumour goes that DT will come for GIR this year. (from my journo friend who used to work there at some point)
JETHRO TULL at IIM Bangalore on FEB 3rd. And I think its Freak Kitchen playing at GIR. Matthias Eklundh is simply awesome. I missed his gig with Jonas Hellborg few weeks ago but I heard it was awesome.
Freak Kitchen!!! Awesome awesome I missed his gig with Hellborg too but I got the soundboard recording off the guy who organised it. It was nice..but not a patch on the same songs with Shawn Lane on them. He didn't seem to fit into the mix too well...too Vai/Zappa esque for Carnatic-tinged tunes like Aga of the Ladies.
Concerts in Ahmedabad: 26th-Jal and Strings 27th-The idot Bangaash brothers. 29th- Indian Ocean/Sivamani/Lousi Banks (blech)/Niladri Kumar (Sitar player who plugs into a GT-6..plays on Jonas Hellborg's new album Kali's Son). Not rock concerts strictly but what the hell..
Because they have no talent of their own and are riding on their father's name to make it big. If they weren't his sons they would never be able to make it. Because their own compositions and interpretations of ragas completely lack creativity or respect for classical music. Because in an interview to some mag, one of them claimed that his favourite artist was the Backstreet Boys and Boyzone (I'm not making this up).
