Saturday Night after listening to “Disco Nights” on Friends 91.9 FM, the mood had been set to go out partying and where better than good old Some Place Else. Once there I bumped into my good old friend from Delhi, Mr. Batra, well more popularly known as RJ Pratap in Delhi. The music started, well the live music that is and Saturday Night Blues Band was at their better best. They kicked off with an apt song “Strange Brew” and then that whining guitar just took over. I enjoyed some great slide work by Jayanta and alternating lead riffs with Chuku. Stuie on Bass was superb when he broke out singing into some rock n roll. Arnima popped in and out on the vocals when that powerful female voice was required and did some great back up vocals too when Jayanta was singing. Jeff on the drums in the back tapping away on his drums also lent his voice once in a while.

After they wound up their act half past midnight with “Mustang Sally”, I waited on for the next band to come on. They were called SAL. “Shut up And Listen” was their name and aptly so I did for all of two numbers after a prolonged sound check which lasted about half an hour. Then I just left. They were just too loud for me. I should’ve guessed they would be loud because DJ Austin and DJ Sumit kind of set it up with some real head-banging stuff while they were setting up.
