This post is dedicated to all of those people, who have seen us play or enjoy music, and have felt its a Lifestyle by itself !Thats us at NIT Ragam 2008, where we made through to the finals of the rock show and finished third on the podium !
Looking back at it, it was one helluva experience and feeling that can't be explained by my humble vocab !
It was a dream come true for all of us and it really proved that practice could get you to places !
My good friend Arun (a.k.a CP), who is also the band's drummer ( now ex, just like myself ) and I had always dreamt of forming a band when we first made friends at college.
Didn't quite see it happen until a bunch of young talent joined us couple of years later. Getting together and then agreeing on one genre was tough. It took us an yr to get noticed outside college. Our IIT Saarang performance was really a platform from where we picked up some energy and stage presence. One another thing worth mentioning about the IIT trip, was the fun we all had together as a band. We even shopped , ate, had loads of fun on the train journey, together. For 4 days it was just music all around and man, did it cure the senses ;-) !!
Then on, the jams and experience from IIT, gave us amazing confidence that we could really pull off this show at NIT. It was also known to be our last performance together, with me and CP soon leaving for our jobs and other priorities after college.
I won't go into the details of our show, but wouldn't miss out the fact that, as a band, esp on stage, you have this feeling that you hold the key to people s hearts !!
Will really miss the days we jammed, defying authorities @ college, crossing the limits of sanity and having fun the way we wanted and most of all make people around us, encore for more !!
It ll always be cherished as one of the most important things that livened up our college life !
Fellas, in this rat race of life, music is one thing that ll ensure your mental well being...rock on and never say die !!
Peace,
