Amazing concert !!!
It is amazing how as mentioned in the earlier post , the times have changed in India . I never imagined in my life that I would get a chance to see Dave Mustaine and friends perform in front of me ..yeah talking about the Rock In India concert at Bengaluru ! They were amazing , the only sad part being the sound system - it did not justify what the fans were waiting for . But what neatly power packed performance , first by Machine head and then by Megadeth . Machine head's front man really involved the crowd in the songs they played .
Except for the sound equipment part the whole show was wonderfully managed - liberal supply of booze !!(Only complaint why only whisky , yaar what happened to Rum and Vodka and lo no Beer too !!) . Security was tight though people still managed to sneak in their joints and ciggys .
Out of the Indian bands I was looking forward to the Bangalore based band " Millenium " as had been an ardent follower after they came on MTV Headbangers Ball way back in '95-'96 . The front man - Vehrnon had an amazing vocal and the sound system really was better on this stage .
Some thoughts after this show :
What point in bring these big bands if you do not have a proper sound equipment ?
If you can allow drinks inside the venue , then why stop guys from getting their own drinks from outside - better give them disposable glasses / ice cubes and a liberal dose of water / lime / coke !!
Most of the guys who come for these shows are college / school going guys who would have begged or stolen moolah to get to this show , at least you can let them enjoy by providing nominal rate food .
NOW JUST WAITING FOR METALLICA TO COME TO INDIA !! THAT WOULD BE A SHOW WORTH
DYING FOR ...
