saarang '07 - IIT Saarang - rock show

went for rock show in saarang '07, IIT madras. my first live rock concert and that too with all my closest friends in college, all of them. actually i was the only one among them who listened to rock bands and western music but now i think all have become fan of rock lol. they've even started asking me songs so they can hear more. two bands who came to perform were merzin, a French band from Brittany, France, and junkyard groove a rapidly growing band from Chennai. heres a small clip from the night, its part of merzin's performance.

must have been the strangest gas pedal

On the way to home after spending some time with my friends on besant nagar beach, my friend and i decide to take an auto. suddenly our auto stops after travelling 20 meters and the auto driver goes on the back (where the engine is) to check. while we were sitting inside thinking whether to dump this auto and catch another one, he suddenly pulls out a wire from behind. and tells us that theres some problem in the accelerator wire connected to the engine which he had just replaced the same day. but hey! no need to worry. he can still drive it! he ties that long wire to a rod inside the auto and uses one hand to accelerate and one hand to steer the vehicle, all the way to our place lol . and thankfully we do reach our home alive *phew*
