Another one Bites the.......HRC

Steve walks warily down the street,
with the brim pulled way down low
Ain't no sound but the sound of his feet,
machine guns ready to go

Are you ready, Are you ready for this
Are you hanging on the edge of your seat
Out of the doorway the bullets rip
To the sound of the beat

Another one bites the dust
Another one bites the dust
And another one gone, and another one gone
Another one bites the dust

Hey, I'm gonna get you too
Another one bites the dust
(Another one bites the dust - Queen)



This was one of the song which was played in there........


It had one of the best crowds I have seen in Bangalore at any of its popular night spots :-D ;-)


The music volume for hard rock was just perfect not excessively loud....


Biggest of all......it was not having the chhota chhota bachcha (high school or college going kids) crowd which you tend to see everywhere in Bangalore - in any of the major pubs out here.......


In the above song two lines are so apt for this place:


"Are you ready, Are you ready for this

Are you hanging on the edge of your seat"

Well if you have not yet experienced this place and moreover you also enjoy rock - then you better be ready for this experience.......it had entered India first in Mumbai and it has finally hit Bangalore.....


The place being talked about here is none other than:
Well it has finally opened up here in Bangalore - Namma Bengalooru

This place has replaced and erstwile pub - 1912 and Barista near Anil Kumble Circle and is on St. Marks Road. 1912 was also one of the classiest places to spend evenings at. HRC surely has done justice to it.


The interiors are just way too amazingly well done. Firstly, its split into two zones - in one area - on the right side as you enter - you get to see THE BAR and a Stage just above the bar. Maybe the title ON THE ROCKS might have started like that. That is the area having the couch seating with hard rock playing at a medium high volume level - a level at which you can head bang and you can talk. On the left side as you enter is the area, where the decibel levels are very much lower compared to THE OTHER SIDE.....In this area - it has been given a look of fine dining with proper chairs and tables. Thus, this place has hit it perfectly to both the kind of people:

1. Who love there music HARD and LOUD

2. Who love there music HARD but SOFT

Secondly, the biggest draw here will be all the stuff on display there. Jimi Hendrix's guitar has been placed very prominently and your eyes surely will grab the attention there. Then it is full of snaps of all major Rock legends, their actual costumes, the instrument they played.


Now lastly comes the food and drinks....hic hic......I can say it serves one of the best Long Island Iced Tea. There is a lot of variety in food. Haven't been able to try a lot - but whatever has been tried was pretty good.


But now that you might plan to try this place out - you better follow dress code here. Floaters would make the huge bouncers out there throw you out and after looking at them you yourself will back off......


Overall....a real good destination has opened for Bangalore rock lovers who have some excess money to spare......am sure am gonna be its repeat customer.....till then:




The fireball that we rode was moving
But now we've got a new machine
Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah the freaks said
Man those cats can really swing
They got music in their solar system
They've rocked around the Milky Way
They dance around the Borealice
They're Space Truckin' everyday

Come on
(Space Truckin' - Deep Purple)

Hi, I wanted to refer to your blog in my blog which I am writing about “How blogging, Online visibility is going to help Outsourcing and create more business.” I understand that the question would be why your Blog as it is totally disparate and yes that is the reason I wanted to highlight that there are enough individuals who have a passion of sharing online and Blogs can be channelized for professional growth and not just personal networking or as a personal channel. I would post my blog under an interesting competition going on with a chance to win $1000 (http://www.limeexchange.com/contest/details/2). Is it going to be alright with you?
