The crowd was just settling down . They just struck and pulled us into their captivating mindset through their mindstreet , the crowed screamed out for more, i was surprised that most of the people standing there didn't had any idea who was performing before them. I saw the power of music right in front of my eyes , as the band unleashed songs from both of their critically acclaimed albums, they rided right into thire hearts and minds. most of them were screaming the lines just from hearing what SURAJ sang.
But for me, what made it all happen was the man behind the strings, the only man who can shred out his guitar for the ultimate perfection in carnatic progressive rock . yes the one and only BAIJU . As he blazed out this fingers pushing our hearts and his incomparable skills to the talk the crowds just started reaching for their air guitars. I was so thrilled out I felt like time just stole for this master to enfold his beauty.A techinical issue did catch him and did give everyone some nerve's. but for a compensation deal he just rocked out a few more striving notes from his guitar enduring compassion, compensation and competence
While CLYDE was rocking like hell on his bass guitar,his hair was just slicing the air like knife,the bass was just pounding the entire stage, his classic style play of the bass did give me a refined pleasure. while DEEPU was too busy with his rhythm guitar and sidelines, I felt like he didn't have enough time to communicate with the audience but his music did that for him mostly. Sitting in middle of the huge pile of drums and symbols smaching the bits and bounds out those brass plates and those lather drums making noise to music JOHN was the man who made it complete, the addition of the new 'chheda' made the chasing the sun so rich redefining Indian rock to new levels. SURAJ was just being who HE was, singing songs like its just flowing in his veins.He is the carrier, the conveyor. He touches each and every one of us who was there. He made us think, hear, breath MUSIC .The unmatched richness of the lyric were driven down through his voice, expressing deepest of the feelings.
I was very lucky to hear the band sing thire new OST for ANVAR for the first time. As the sun was setting they came by the stage for checking the sound system and correcting them they actually sang JIHAD for trial , i was at the stage capturing every moment of that.Any way with all the glory they sang JIHAD at night as the third last song ,the song just rocked the stage the people were screaming for more . And by the request of the fans they unleashed ' the Fields of sound ' . Our beloved guitar hero did some extended guitar plays on that,The show was just so good that we all just wanted the show to never end .
