The Bengalooroo Habba ... was whacked!!

MOB sightings were reported at the Bangalore Habba tonight ... by the few who survived the onslaught ... when a crowd of about 7000 were woken up from a daze (both forms) ... innocent, unprepared, they were ... alien to the massacre the Ministry had conjured for them ... at 10 thousand plus watts on the PA ... with ... alas just three songs (indigo ... ill get you for that one day!!) ...

And like the day before with "Mona Lisa was a man" at the Opus (damn ... the bacon-wrapped shrimp back there!!! Ummm!!)... the Ministry Of Blues were demented at the Habba ... with great sound on the PA ... and not so great on the monitors (Phil repeatedly asked for more Rauf on the monitor in vain). They woke up the "family" junta and the drunks with "Voooooooooodooooooooo Chile" .... then segueing (that a word?) straight into "Texas Strut" (this was a thumper, Ill tellya) ... and then the smiling lady (still debated) ... "Monalisa was a man" came on when all the paisan went berserk ... Phil started chomping strings ala hendrix ... behind-the-head-shred and all ... Rauf sampling the organ (the patch on his Korg 364 workstation, that is) ... Vinoo ... shredding bass (question I often ask myself ... was he a 6-stringer before??) ... and DK ... experimentation is everything!!!! I didn't know if I should click pics or to break my neck against the goddamned barricade!!

Then ... backstage ... talk-about-show with the guys ... Empire (if it weren't for you ..........Id have been gangly!) ... home ... the site ... the blog ... here's a few pictures from the scene of the crime ...
