Punked the Hall

December 5, 2008... We played at the North East Students festival at Kristu Kripa Church organized by Capstone Ministries, Bangalore. 

We kick started with 'Christmas Ain't about Santa' a punk christmas original ...then moved on to other sonstroke16 songs like Take a turn, Born again, Everdays and Change. Then got back to Christmas groove with 'Angels we heard on High'. We ended our set list with the most familiar christmas carol 'Joy to the World'...but spiced it up with blues riffs, leads and vocals...was a complete jaw dropping moment for the audience. hehe... the show was an awesome experience. Had fun to the core, jumping and sweating out...landing on funny chords and dropping picks(that was me, gladvin)... David, the lead guitarist of 'By His Bleeding Side' played with us and he's still playing with us...guess he likes the band and likes to be a punk guitarist. ;) ...

This evening was a satisfactory experience coz we had planned to go to the northeast to play in Hornbill fest in december. The months went by and didn't seem like anyone could save up money for it... hmmm... we really wanted to go there. When we were given this oppurtunity to play in the northeast fest, we were really glad and we just grabbed it. :) The moment we stepped in the campus we felt like we were somewhere in the northeast. The hall was decorated with shawls and woolen stuff. Total northeast stuff...and the food...Fermented pork and bamboo shoots..out of the world experience. :) the people were pleasant and very welcoming. This was a trailer to what we're gonna see and go in the future.
