RE: [arr] My comments on Jai ho Kolkata
Hey Rajib Man, Good u liked the concert and you met some of your friends from this gang. Ya i think all Jai Ho concerts follow the same template. Actually thats the way it usually is for all tours of all major artists. Saves time and limits even costs in some places. They don't expect many to tour along with the band. But security looks like lax in Kolkata. No frisking and people lighting fire to newspapers I think is is a serious lapse I wonder when will we ever learn from mistakes. regards wb To: arrahmanfans@yahoogroups.com From: rakesha...@gmail.com Date: Mon, 23 Nov 2009 11:04:10 -0800 Subject: Re: [arr] My comments on Jai ho Kolkata It was your spirit that stands above all Rajib.

Singing tamil songs also means giving the Bengalis a chance to listen to some awesome numbers which they wold have never otherwise... I have got three email requests asking me for the FRENCH RAP song... Called Taxi Taxi! Felt good to know so! Singing Hindi versions over Tamil versions may not be the best option. Chandralekha sounds best in Tamil, known fact. Hence. The other songs were in Hindi only. Chandralekha in Hindi did not sound too good in Delhi..the tamil portions were way better. ARR's speciality is his improvisations.. and he does them with style! especially raagas and aalaps.. there is so much fun hearing a new version! The CD is always there for the original. One could see how much fun AR had while singing Fiqrana... He was into it! The way he was touching the "Fiqrna" notes... he was so enjoying it! let's give it him..he created the song... will post the entry video soon..forgetting lyrics is a part of the live show business..and that's another beauty..how ARR can hum it off or alaap it off! I totally enjoy the live act! :) Mausan and escape start was nothing but some jamming session..to create a build up for the act to follow.. Rehna tu.. he usually hums the entire continuum, those who attended the previous shows must be familiar..this time he played the harmonica on it.. something unusual.. sounded good..maybe vocally he went off and came back at some places..but was a good performance.. he would actually touch higher notes in this song... Naveen was there for the bombay theme..the singers were not there..and this was only to support the Visual credits on the LEDs.. This concert AR actually opened up..u hardly hear him shout and say "Welcome Kolkata...this is the Jai ho o o o o concert!" ;) and he also spoke on and off and in between two songs!! And he had some energy in Khalbali! Must mention that!! Rajib...coming all the way to the concert must have been fun and worth it! There are still so many fans in group and otherwise who have not had the good fortune of seeing him live. Enjoy the moments.
