The malayalee Thattu Kada. What a gig. Rojew wanted to play all 46 songs on our list, but we managed to get through just 25. Some very cool jam things happened with the big man Mr. Prakash Sontakke, who just landed up. Good trip. There’s also a very concrete plan to put in some actual flying time.
If I wasn’t playing guitar, that’s what I’d probably be. Way before I can even remember, there’s only one thing I really wanted to do – fly. I knew everything there was to know about those fabulous WWI and WWII aircraft, the first jets, the concorde, the SR-71A, sigh. It was such a consuming passion. I’d sit through every summer break and make scale models of aircraft with last year’s notebook-cardboard. Still got some of these models, albeit a little beat-up after long storage.
Done some parasailing, but not real flying and this is really exciting…
