ARMS Benefit concert



September 20th, 1983

A Stairway to Heaven instrumental by Jimi Page during the ARMS (Action into Research in Multiple Sclerosis) charity concert at Royal Albert Hall, London.
The first occasion when Jimi Page, Eric Clapton and Jeff Beck the former members of The Yardbirds performed together on stage. The entire concert is simply brilliant.

Chiru's daughter elopes

This was the funniest thing to happen since I came here. Too funny...

Last week Churanjivee's daughter eloped with some guy from some local college in Hyderabad. And it was hot news in my house. Full discussion and all. Super enthu, full scolding and all. Shit it was the funniest thing I had ever seen since I came here. Gult power man.
My room mates went to the extent of scrapping some shit in that guys Orkut profile! Abused him in gult... too funny. They were streaming online gult news every 1 hr and checking for latest latest developments. For those 3 days, my alarm was gult news man..
I died off. There was a big gult congregation at my house. Fellow gults in support of Chiru, abusing shit and asking the guy to fuck off. Hehehe...
Then, they went to flash back, started discussing abt Chiru's family. Their happy days... Shit, I couldn't take it. I just had to get out of the house and laugh my heart out. I would have died other wise..hehehe

Led Zep re-union

I should have been born in the 50's. Either in NY, SF or London. That was the time. 17 years later, I would have had a chance to attend some of the greatest concerts of all time. Jimi Hendrix, The yardbirds, Janis Joplin, The Who, The Doors, Simon and Garfunkle, Rolling Stones, Floyd,... And the greatest of them all LED ZEPPELIN.

Now most of them are either dead or have broken up. And to make things worse I am next to NY! All I can do now is go to those killer arena's where they performed and just dream, and tell myself "How i wish..." Man, I should have been born in the fifties. Who knows, may be I was and died in a stampede, or died of an od (Hopefully, I died at the golden age of 27...heeeee).

I had decided, If I were to go to NY the first thing I would see would be Madison Square Garden. And thats exactly what I did. I got down at Penn station, NY and I was there. Right behind MSG!! The world famous MSG Man!!! The place where the greatest concert of Led Zeppelin happened in 1975.

The lounge was simply superb. High, spacious and long walled. Walls filled with gigantic black and white photos of Mohammed Ali's fights, Kennedy delivering his speeches, circus shows, NBA matches and rock concerts. The two huge walls were more of a collage, right before the entrance of the arena. For a few minutes I felt I traveled back in time and was part of the black and white world. Standing in the middle watching all the events unfold in front of me. Amazing. Till Sriram from behind just had to say "let us go." I was like, thoo...

Anyways, Now that I am here in this world I'v always been looking forward to a Led Zeppelin re-union concert. And its happening! 26th November 2007 at the London's 02 Arena.

I won't be able to attend it. But it raises my hopes of expecting one at MSG. I just hope... and will keep www.led-zeppelin.com on my watch list. Something that comes as a consolation to me is that they are coming up with two new releases. The Song Remains The Same on 20th november which includes some previously unreleased tracks (some from MSG) and Mothership - The very best of Led Zeppelin. And ob, the killer video of Stairway to Heaven from the up coming reunion concert that will be all over the net!!!! So, I'l at least have something to look forward to as far as this concert is concerned!

Hahahaha!!!!!

Finally, got that mood to blog!!! A sign of absolute boredom. Put up a new template and a killer Led Zep pic instead of the previous shitty title.
Man, US sucks! It may be the place where everything in the world happens, but you can't do shit here unless you have a car and some cash! Life sucks either ways, with the amount of homework that we are given.
But the best part about US is its killer download speed!! I'v resumed downloading the led zeppelin collection that I used to so carefully download at college at 10kbps (but now at over 700kbps!). So yeah, thats a good sign!!
