Night Time, Rock Show and Heavy RAINS!!!!!

As I am writing this blog, its raining pretty heavily outside.Chennai has been having amazing climate for last five days continuously. Sun has not shown its face.

Well weekend was amazing. Saturday evening....along with two friends I went for a Rock Show here in Chennai. Izaz was performing there. The band was good, nice smooth guitar works and most importantly - it was very different. It is a group from UK but having origin in Pakistan. The crowd was good [well that is understood ;-) ]. The show was going on fine and got better when rains started. Though thye show had to be stopped due to heavy rains. Still we waited there without any cover and got completely drenched in Chennai rains. Night Time, Rock Show and Heavy Rains - are a deadly combi. Fun to the max. I just love it. I love all the three things....so when got a chance to experience all three together so how could I not resist waiting there. All in all it was a SATURDAY NIGHT FEVER.

Now coming back was also quite a experience in itself. With rain showing no respite, we were forced to go out of the Open Air Theatre to the road in search of auto-rickshaw. Backed solidly by heavy rains and lack of availability of empty autos, the auto charges went soaring up - touching Rs. 100/- which we were not willing to pay for an auto -who in the world would be willing to pay that much for a Rs. 30/- ride. Again we spent around an hour on the road. Well - best was when there came another group - were forced to come out of shade since rain was not stopping and the young lady in their group came out to look for the auto - followed by two of her guy friends. She was determined to get the auto before we got. And alas she succeeded - she might have even got a good bargain, courtesy my friend (we 3 were guys) who was trying to get the auto was not that attractive ;-). Life is so biased against guys na.....

Then we decided to try to get the auto from the other side. Crossed and went on to the other side - to the Pizza Corner - we were all drenched and were in half mind whether to go in for a bite or not - courtesy the AC which was switched on inside. After waiting for auto for a real long time - we decided to go in and try and sit only to come out - WE WOULD HAVE CHILLED - the Pizza Corner guys weren't willing to adjust the AC temperature.....Again the bargaining process starts.....and after seeing off around 6 autos we finally managed to get one at 6o bucks. WE HAD TO PAY THAT -we had to reach home. There was no way I could have gone home that day - so stayed at my friends place, had dinner there and went back in morning.

I just love rains, I just love rock music and now I got enlightened about Chennai - so I just love this city too.... :D

Sunday went off lazing around at home....had a breakfast cooked by us..."egg bhurji" and it was good. Then had a nice sound sleep in the afternoon and again for dinner went out with friends to Pizza Corner.

Weekend went off well....and the next day - following the usual "MONDAY MORNING BLUES" I got up late- though managed to reach office on time, and before leaving office here I am typing this post and its raining....yet again....

The Chennai climate right now is nothing close to what I had been told it is during this time of the year.

Am happy - Life Rocks....
