And all that Jazz


After all the abuses and KWAK THOOs and more abuses later, Me and Divs finally decided that Wednesday would be the right time to meet up and catch up on whats going on wonlee. There was this choice of Amethyst or Anokhi. The previous day i get a call from her askin if I know JAZZ ( Waddafack ) and that there is a Jazz concert happening Wednesday evening and she has been marked to cover the event for this Hindu - IT CORRIDOR specific suppliment called ERGO ( wat a nice ). So I was naturally exited because i am drama king and can anytime pull off as a Journalist with jolna pai and soda butti :P~. There was also this clause from her end that I behave myself at the concert. So this is where it got Jazzed :-)

Picked up Divs at 6.30 and moved towards Alliance in neck to neck traffic. Divs was like " I am gonna faint dude cause am that hungry ". So we finally manage to reach the venue at 7 ( HAH THANKS TO MY ELITE RIDING SKILLS ). We run up to the Audi and find that the concert has not started yet so caman the run to the canteen wonlee. Couple of Sandwiches later, we enter the audi to find Madam Lisa Patterson explaining what this is all about. She starts off with the singing while her hands played around on the Keys of a M-Audio Keyboard. Couple of songs later a Kurta wearing dude joined in with his collection of Flutes. This guy's name was Naveen and MAN he knows how to blow his wind instruments. Lovely wonlee it was. Then Keith and Subbu join Lisa on Bass and percussions. No came the real thing, full jamming session with solo pieces of all three instruments. Well i dont remember the names of the songs they played but there was in song in the end with loads of Hallelujah in it. For a second I thought i was sitting in a Paul Dhinakaran's assembly of god prayer meet BWHAHAHAHAHAHA. Then Divs next to me starts to sing along too and well ahemmmm I join in too. What fun I say. The concert ends at 9.30 and divs runs up to Lisa to have a few words. Full page three wonlee :P~. Frankly speaking she was kick ass when she did covers and when she was on high scales. However there was lil loss of control when the song went slow.

Both the two of us exit Alliance and head out to Cream Center for dinner. After a Pasta - In - Pasta and a FACKIN HUGE glass of Peach ice tea later, I drop Divs home and head back home myself with visions of Lisa doing that scottish dance between sticks. HUP HUP HUP :-). All in all a fantastic evening.

Spell errors are always there in whatever i write SO DONT POINT IT OUT x-(
