Music Tantra: Bootlegs of Indian Rock concerts

One sign that the Indian Rock/Metal music scene is developing its own identity is the rise of websites/web-zines devoted to covering the music scene in India. The latest one (for me at least) is Music Tantra. The USP of this site is that it has a great download section that has audio and video bootlegs of Indian bands such as Parikrama, TAAQ, Brute Force. It also has a section for lyrics for original compositions (OCs) of many of these bands. And it also has a gig calendar. One thing that I've found somewhat irritating is that each of these music sites have their own gig calendars and if I want to find out what band may be playing somewhere in Mumbai today I have no other option to visit each of these sites individually and find out. I hope we can find a way to create a common gig-calendar that gets fed by all these individual ones so that we have source we can always go to for getting information about upcoming gigs.

But that said, I highly recommend Music Tantra. I've added it to the sidebar in this blog as well.
