A Jamming Session 🎸

In my childhood I would often wonder if I could ever get to attend a guitar session by a young singer with full of energy .I would admire movies like "Geetha" where Sanju would have sessions.But I could never really get such opportunities when I actually had the freedom.Now I am a mom,my toddler would perhaps reduce the chances of attending even more.
My parents were here after a long time.I asked my brother if we could book the session,a jamming session happening in Bugle Rock almost every Sunday.This was particularly a Folk song themed session.I could not dress up in that attire as I am a miser and find myself guilty.So I just wore a kurti which is 5 years old and wrapped myself in a Kashmiri Shawl which I had got.We had to leave early as I planned my brother to taste the legendary MLTR in DVG road.
we went there in cold and around 7 itself the place was half filled.I honestly like the rustic things here as they remind me of my childhood.My brother was getting conscious about me doing photography 😐.
I always the adore the Foamy Filter coffee,so when in Basavanagudi how can one miss it!
Below are some images which I captured and dose was avg this time:(
Then it was almost 8 and we headed to Bugle Rock Park .Me being an excited  ass took the front seat and was ready to sing /scream at the top of my voice.
Then the session started.There were many beautiful ladies who were dressed up in traditional folk attire and their presence showed me on how to enjoy the life in your 40s.I became friends with a school principal and she was sweet.The singer, Sagar Simha arrived and he was from Mysore.His voice was too good..We were all given sheets to repeat and there were songs like "Mayadanta Male Bantana","Ghallu Ghallenutav gejje" ,"Sojugada sooju mallige","Hange kuniro heenge kuniro" and at the last we all stepped down,sang and danced on OG "Kula dalli keelavudo".
We as audiences were failing to listen to his instructions and Sagar was nice enough to teach us patiently.There were catchy instruments like 'Tamate' and the other names I don't know.
it was nice to sing along with 400+  good and bad singers !

I had seen this group performing almost every week on different themes and I could not resist myself from visiting(via Instagram reels,you know it's not always bad).The session went on like till 11 as they wanted to take some nice videos of all of us singing for insta reels.My Dad was calling non stop to call us back home as he was told that a doctor would be available from 10 am till 4 pm and he wanted to go at exact 10 (Idk If he thinks  the doctor will be impressed 😶).
So we missed his solo performance and was an amazing experience..I am thinking of visiting them again if  they keep Anant Nag and Shankar Nag songs :)
All I can to say to those who are reading this blog to live on your weekends,get a life and get tired so that you can sleep peacefully on a Sunday night ,a bit early without thinking about Mondays :)

Here I am ,again after a week!Guess what,Appu(My son) has been better in terms not being clingy and furious all the time.So a brownie point for that and on a good note to start with. This week I and my brother went for a family function and I got a proper picture after buying this phone.I prefer cotton dresses here even if it is a marriage. So this was just before going out.I am not a shopaholic and I advise sustainable clothing.I also liked a tamarind jaggery dish prepared at the function.Also the wise old man is back here, hehe!. Andd,I have become a slow reader in search of new flexible job.I mean I work for a core company and a coder.But somehow I want to escape from going to office.. We resumed playing badminton again this week:) One of our garden flowers stem broke suddenly after blooming fully.I felt sad, like you be in your limelight and suddenly boom! Something happened. Nowadays since it's cloudy all the time, evening skies are such a nice treat I ...

Uff,Rainy week!I am listening to "Yamune Aatrile" from Thalapathi which ended up me in tears. Such a practical application of Mahabharata.I suddenly remembered it and snatched back my earbuds from my Mommy dearest. I was reading a book by V S khandekar which was translated from Marathi to Kannada called "Krounchavadhe".You know it means, a hunter had killed the male Krounchpakshi when it was with his partner.I am liking the writing style though and ordered one more book by the same author. I made my son wear his sweater and hat which his dad had got for him from Nainital.But the little guy seems to like the no sweater policy.He cried till I removed it. Last Sunday, I had been to my dad's native where I was born.I felt like crying after visiting there as I had spent my major portion of the life there in one place.My cousins and chikkamma prepared nice Pav Bhaji for us.I had to manage by spending equal times at both the houses(My Ajji and S...

Dear Diary -03.05.25

So here I am with one more weekly update.My husband is in Varanasi and he lived my dream.He was a little kind enough to try the food I suggested and places I suggested.It's raining there and his flight is delayed it seems. This week was a roller coaster emotionally.I had a big fight with my husband and he sent me a surprise Pizza.I was never a pizza lover,but I craved for it in my pregnancy. Also,this week marked the death of our dog,Gundu one who changed my perspective on dogs itself.He would accompany me for walks.Its sad that he was attacked by a leopard.Idk,what forest department is doing.I mean only pigs were of a concern here. Nvm,they got a replica of  Gundu now,My mava said it must be his child only as he looks the same and from the same place where our Gundu would go for his night walks.Wherever you are,I hope you are happy Gundu. also,gold rates are sky high.For a small piece ,say tiny enough,for that it costed me 700 rs. I went to ajjanmane as my ...
