Indian Rock. Motherjane in Kollam (Kerala)

India — a country music and this is unlikely to argue. It should at least mention all your favorite Indian movies where the plot just can not develop without two or three inflammatory songs and dances. Loves to sing and dance every Indian, but their music is, to put it mildly, not always clear to us. So knowing that India is still a place for music styles closer the white man, we decided to visit a concert of local rock group soon would act in the area of ​​our deployment. The phrase "Indian Rock" sounded very mysterious and unusual, but even more interesting. So what is the Indian rock? Start was scheduled for 19:00, but in the Indian tradition, most of the crowd had gathered only about 20:00. Strictly speaking, the concert was delayed for an hour. While the masses and fans of rock music slowly took their seats, the team set up sound:

Allowed entry even secret weapon: simultaneously playing two guitars (acoustic and electric). It was impressive!

But all was still. The only reason to get out of the place was just a desire to go home:

The only "victim" hot Indian rockers became a foreign tourist. First lady kovbasylas on a chair, well, when passions came to the edge — if not failed in the dance:

14

Even the strong squad stewards failed to reassure her.

The group, to tell the truth, still had a small handful of loyal fans — they can be seen to the right of the fence. Young people behaved customary for rock concerts follows: jumping and actively singing along, but the bulk and sat:

The concert was coming to an end. At the scene were all stewards, joined hands and built a barrier whose purpose — to stop the crowd that rushed to the performers. But for some reason no one ran:

The enthusiasm of the musicians fading eyes and concert ended fairly sluggish. Sorry rockers did not go out for an encore and people quickly dispersed to their homes:
