What’s up right.. well for one, I m not ! and the way things are giong around, I m suspecting I won’t be properly up either

Zair has recently become ‘The Incredible Hulk‘ in case you didn’t know. and I’ve become I don’t know maybe the military that runs from him, but I ain’t running from Zair.. he’s a darling.. Muah muah… haha !

I’ve started using the Wacom tablet we have at our office for the design team, but not really properly, and honestly it’s so much fun to use it, rediscovery of talents haha.

I missed today’s Gunaah’s concert, coz yes, I m not really well.. I m pretty weak and ill for now, thats why the folks around my office don’t get to see a lot of jumpy me

And boy oh boy, add to that, I donated blood, for a good casue, incase you have some extra blood too, go donate them to thalessimia patients, I swear it’s worth it, thats why I did it.

I actually saw them in person, and also saw another good number of folks from other disorders realted to blood… Blood is so important, I just found out the importance, and I feel like thanking the All mighty for giving me a healthy supplu of blood in my veins..

On the other hand when I went for the donation with my office staff, we had a surprizing incident, which I m not going to write here to save someone from some embarassment.. yes I care

Then we even discovered a BLOODY MUFTA, ok for those who didn’t get it, it’s an internal office joke, posted here for no reason

Love all the rest..

Teabreak’s rocking btw

I’ve updated the wordpress version to the latest one, yesterday, and it’s not surprizing to say, it’s beautiful, and alot of things have changed, which is good, and things have become more accessible !

Any how, it’s safe to say, wordpress is here to stay, for a long long time !

I think I didn’t really do justice with the last post, so here, I’ll post some more about the week end.

Friday.
This was the usual ’stay late at office’ and then leave day, left at around 9pm I guess, hopped home in a car. I had to stay up late, infact I didn’t sleep the whole night, coz I knew if I would sleep, I wouldn’t be up on time, and I had to go to Iqra University, to meet Fahad, Iraj and Babrus.

Saturday.
I left at around 10am, after eating those delicious basni roti mom made, H-N as usual was on his bed, half nanga ! I woke him up, and surprisingly he got up real soon, he changed we talked, got on a Rikshaw, and off to the university. We had some boring and some awesome time there, we did enjoy the random crap we spoke, the random bull shit we did and the even though we spoke crap, we did manage to speak some things sensible, I even met uzey, though for a very short while, and I think I should’ve talked to her a bit more (I apologized later )

Any how, after be done with all the ‘IMPORTANT’ things there, me and Babrus went to H-N’s band’s lead guitarist’s place, where we enjoyed some crap, and then over to H-N’s place, there we sat and did nothing We actually waited for the mota man to get ready, so we could head over for the concert, I wasn’t planning to go there, but eventually, I went, and I went coz my salary had been transferred, which I thought was not the case, but since it had, I did go yaaay.

We did have some probelms at the venue getting in, but not big ones, H-N had some ander ka dost, and that guy managed to get us the passes, we spent a whoppi 500 on that.

We sure did have fun. We were also supposed to meet Babrus’s and H-N’s friend there, had a bit of funny moments there too

Me and babrus left early, and had pizza and went home….whew…

Sunday.
Woke up late brought groceries, went to Asim’s house, missed a festival, went back to sleep

Another week end post..

Yes I ‘ve got a little rusty writing these. But hey, it’s my blog

Anyways, this week end was a bit tiring, but worth it..

Friday night was the usual late, but I managed not to sleep and go to H-N’s house in the morning from then onwards we headed to Fahad’s university, and had a great time, even though some of it was boring, we had Iraj and one of her friend too.

Then we did enjoy a a little bit of concert of Aaroh and Josh and loads of crappy underground bands then babrus and me headed out.. we met H-N’s friend there..

We had pizza after the concert since we walked a lot and were super duper hungry..

thats the end of a random crazy little post..

Yes it’s weird I wrote a crappy post

18th November, 2007. The evening in Khayaban-e-Itehad would have been the normal life for everyone else ! But those who dropped by The Second Floor - Karachi, had the treat of the day. Gunaah’s birthday bash was all that we gathered for and got the joy of listening to three bands, one of those for whom we have special respect as being of the best underground acts in Pakistan.

The show starts with Achanak (the band), performing their orignals and covers from Aerosmith and Aaroh, honestly the covers were far better than the original, though they raped one of the cover too. Surprizingly they got to do more socializing with modern chicks than the other bands

We then had Gravity get the spirits of the audience high and rocking with an awesome start of a classical ‘Tarana‘, they even performed covers from Junoon and Sajjad Ali, but the most rocking acts were their originals. From the covers they did, both sounded awesome, much better than what Achanak could’ve done. They were actually to do all this unplugged, but on the last moment decided to do it plugged and rocking ! And they did good !

Then we had the final act of the day, Gunaah took the center stage ! Started off with Nishaan from Noori and then moved to Bolo bolo and other tracks, but, yes, but the most rocking performance came from their cover of Psycho of System of a Down, and also their original ‘Talaah -e- Noor’, which also has a very special place for me ! I really love that song !

Even with major sound problems and Gunaah managed to pull out a great show, for musicians and the audience alike, and there’s no doubting that Gunaah is here to stay, for a very very long while !

For those who donot know, here’s the current line up of Gunaah :
Hassaan Sarwar - Vocals/Screams, Qumber Kazmi - Drums, Yasir Siddiqui - Bass, Zain Kazmi - Guitars.
