    Last time Snehal Pinto asked: In Brigade Street (Thermal And A Quarter, Jupiter Café, 2002), where and what does ‘Six floors up, one street down’ refer to?

    The answer, of course, is 606, Barton Centre, TAAQ’s jam room and cubbyhole that was ‘six floors up’ from MG Road and ‘one street down’ from Brigade Road, two arterial roads of Bangalore’s business district. 606 was our pad during the time that our second studio album Jupiter Café was written, composed and released.

    We are proud to announce that we have ten winners this time — the most ever (so much for asking sitters, Snehal!)

    • Ananthapadmanabhan Ranganathan
    • Anushya Badrinath
    • Bharath R
    • Hari Adivarekar
    • Jayanth S
    • Raheel Shariff

    Congrats, all! Please join the queue for the prizes *grin*

  • ThermalAndAQuarterly – the quiz question

    , , , , | | Permalink | Comments Off

    That Day This Morning, the quiz series on all things TAAQ that runs in our periodicity-challenged newsletter ThermalAndAQuarterly, has scored one for itself.

    Last month we asked: Who performs Indian classical vocals on the title track of Jupiter Café?
    The answer: Rajesh Mehar.

    Winners: Raheel Shariff, Bharath R, Jayanth S, Sourav Das, Roshan Vid and our regulars Ananth Menon and Snehal Pinto. Congratulations, folks! Await your elusive prizes!

    By the way, that question drew the maximum number of responses, a number of them all-correct ones. As a listener-supported, user-generated content-driven band, we felt that we were reserving the dirty pleasure of asking the tough questions. So, in a sweeping gesture of democracy, we decreed that this month on, past winners shall ask the questions.

    Snehal Pinto asks: In Brigade Street (Thermal And A Quarter, Jupiter Café, 2002), where and what does ‘Six floors up, one street down’ refer to?
