Melange

The Dose :Pilot Shujaat Khan casually strolled on the dias and took controls of the Magical space ship we were about to venture into and get lost. Wow! Am i still lost ? I guess i can just say that i am still at the very center of that bliss and floating on Ragas and Alaaps.
Karsh Kale on drums was great with his beat matching and did a brilliant solo. Tim Ries and Kevin, ex rolling stones were fab on sax and piano respectively.
' This is what i call music ', thus spake Ustaad Shujaat Khan when Tim Ries matched him on the sax for a song they had not prepared together.
The Setting : It almost looked like a magical hinterland with a backdrop of Calcutta Turf Club, Victoria memorial peeking in with white shimmer augmented by the full moon with just the perfect chill in the air.
The Set : Needless to say, I was kicked about this concert since the time i heard about it. I wanted this to be an endless concert. So far, it has proved me right.

the caricature of my imagination

It struck me while i was sleeping, far away dreaming of distant lands, cosmos and the edge of the universe. Aren't we all mere caricatures of our imaginations ? Are we all here for the larger good of mankind ? The power of human mind is a bane and a boon in many ways. We preach love and yet we fight with our parents, siblings, partners. Aren't we then hypocrites ? Oh wait! The disconnect between the mind and the heart is where the problem lies. How do we bridge it ? constant self-exploration and advaita!

I Don't Honk - Kolkata Chapter

We have all honked our way ahead on the streets of Kolkata. That's the way it is always meant to be. Precisely why our ugly behemoths -namely trucks and lorries have it written on the back - Horn Ok Please. So that's imbibed in our culture. Everyone subconsciously agrees to this sound of music. In the culture that we have collectively amassed; it is a widely acceptable norm. In fact, there are various categories of honking : 1. The Big car irritable long honks - Get out of my way you slow moving vehicle. Can't you see I'm wheeling an expensive drive. Well, only to be stuck 50 meters ahead in traffic. 2. The taxi horn that goes honk honk after every 30 seconds. They sometimes do it even at the traffic light just because they get bored and are often times without a music player. 3. The warning deep growl of a swerving giant - I'm going to maneuver and overtake. So you better move away you tiny marutis ( which is a de facto name for all 4 wheelers regardless ...
