'Melange' Humsafar I'd Say...

Well, the day was 27th March 2009 and the night was RADIO rocking K J Somaiya College. Well, to be frank I never really expected it to be this big a deal. I mean, we’ve played college fests before and expected the same kind of crowd; the one’s that cheer and jump and songs they’ve heard before.
But man….WOW !
To see such amazing euphoria from Management geeks was overwhelming. Well, for those who came in late, let me explain. RADIO performed for the pronites of K. J Somaiya’s management college ka festival ‘Melange’. And here are a list of good things…in fact, wonderful things that happened to us that night.
1. Beautiful sound….Crispi, ma man…you rock big time bro !
2. Really kind people who were organizing the fest.
3. Terrifically pepped up crowd.
4. A small but nicely set out set list.
5. Clean changing rooms.
6. Lots of water.
7. No broken strings.
8. A packet of weed.
Well, these perfect ingredients made up a broth so perfect and exhilarating that somehow the event totally rocked. The crowds were with us on every note, every lyric and every drum beat. The covers got a good response. I guess Govinda came out really well from where I stood, thanks to Alok’s magical groovy bass guitaring and Sharad went all berserk and crazy on the Rock On covers. My guitar sounded really good everywhere…..and the man of the night…..RADIO drummer Jack was fantabulous.
But, as usual…..our original compositions blew the covers high & dry. If you think Musafir is a good song, you should’ve seen ‘em kicking it up to Mila Humsafar, yelling Freedom and swaying to Tere Liye which got it’s hatrick loudest cheer among the other OCs.
It was really nice playing for Melange especially after a few depressing shows. We needed to see such enthusiasm as it stands as proof that we still have people left alive in this city….and RADIO will forever keep playing for ‘em.
Stay tuned.
