Parikrama Rock group (started by my college [and hostel] batchmates in 1991 at
Kirorimal College, Delhi featuring hosteler Sonam Sherpa ( a guy) from
Kalimpong near Darjeeling , as lead guitarist,
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kalimpong . . He once talked tough to me at behest
of some local collegemates when they resented my freedom of speech while
communicating my heart's stirrings for a girl in my class (daughter of a
fighter pilot and singer mother - Indian classical).
It seems they lack some confidence when in UK playing English rock to the
English crowds but there Indian performances have made them top of the heap -
in college and professional rock groups - they do NOT play anyother language
music except English. I found that appealing - as a form of purity.
Any opinions about language and culture shocks?

earlier they only played guns n roses , deep purple , scorpians etc now it
seems they have their own music. My classmate Rahul ditched them (he kept some
of their guitars in my hostel room for few months - before he turned sides on
the girl issue ) to become marketing manager for India for Proctor and Gamble.
