Live From The Console// October 20th, 2012

Live from The Console is always exciting to watch. October 20th was no less.
Tejas Menon & Dhananjay Basrur

Tejas Menon from Pune started with Cover of Smooth by Rob Thomas and continued the set with his originals Stationary, Ruby. Dhananjay Basrur backed him up on Djembe, Rhythm Guitar and percussion.

Fringe Pop followed them with their funky pop-rock sound which will make you roll in the High. They played Bittersweet, Rockstar, Come Home Again and several other of their Originals, and they were interacting with  the audience too, this time. This is what was missing in Chennai Live Bandhunt. I feel amused by their music every time they play, and their Set felt so complete together with their interaction.

I had seen Akshay Deodhar play a few of Spook's songs long back at Blue Frog. Since that day, I wanted to see Spook, the whole band live. And this was the day, Their third anniversary gig, my lucky day. Spook played their OCs of which I'll decide and Winter Rain were my favorites. Malini Hariharan joined them on stage for Morning Coffee which she ended with lyrics from the epic song "Every Breath you Take".


As always, in this (hopefully brief) dry spell of gigs in Bombay, Live from the Console surely made my day.

Don't miss the next Live from the console gig on November 17th.
