Today i happened to see the so called master blaster "Sachin"
I saw the clear difference between who give you money in bulk(the sponsors) and the people who give you money in little, but give you lot of name(the fans) i happened to go to the commercial street today and it was very much crowded as usual... but today people were standing in large groups, which clearly indicated that some celebrity is coming there, when enquired people said.. its going to be sachin :)
vow for a minute... even i wanted to see him... as this is a chance to see him so closely apart from seeing in TV and in matches(in the ground)
People were waiting for a long time i think, i just passed by and got the idea that he is going to visit some showroom... yes it was Adidas shop.. where he was scheduled to visit... he came till that shop in the car and he just went in... it was not even for 30 seconds he waved hands for the small sponsors(AKA fans), but he did spend time inside the shop.... whatever the security reasons... i think he should have just come out or waved hands on the so many fans waiting outside from some location... where everyone can see him.... fortunately there was on such place from the first floor of that shop.... i was not a big fan of anyone.. but it was my wife who wanted to see him... so me too waited with her.. and showed her sachin for 10 seconds.. i think... then i saw him standing in that shop's cash counter... he just waved hands once from there... i am not against him or any celebrity... but they should be finding some way to satisfy the fans... really...
anyway... i got a chance to blog on this topic... hope u might have the same thought. pls share....

World Speaks one language - Music?
This is my first time experience ever of attending a rock shop, this time our company sponsored a ticket of 2.5K to enjoy "Mark Knopfler" show. Till yesterday, I did not know this guy. Its great to watch such a show live with the whole bunch of crowd screaming, dancing and enjoying the music(some people enjoyed something else, forget them ;-D)
We went their around 5:30 in the evening.... And we had to wait for a long time for the show to get started, one guy with bald head was tuning the guitars for Mark, I thought he is mark and whistled... basically mark has a bald head and so most of his members.... ;)I am the only guy in my gang who can whistle well... hahaha.. thanks to my college days... thats where i learned that skill :)
Around 7:30 the show started, a man in light blue jean and a white cotton shirt turned up on the stage.... and this time its Mark :) though the crowd started shouting... and dancing, i should say Mark made most of them to stand quite and listen his music and watch his hands playing with the guitar... vow what a piece of work.... though i don't know lyrics from his songs... i just enjoyed the music and was thinking that i got a topic to blog again :) whatever the language of the people in the crowd, but i should say its common to all for the language of Music :) everyone most of the time... enjoyed the guitar played by him.... he exchanged lot of guitars to save time i think... basically he got lot of guitars tuned ready for next song.... the whole team was enjoying the music... the drummer... the other guitarist... everyone... i thought for a second... this is another way of relaxing urself... just enjoy the music u play.... which i am missing certainly... i don't know to play any instrument.... :( should find time to learn any instrument.. which is of my interest...
I thought of a friend in hcl, Manikam. Who would have really enjoyed this show, come to bangalore da ;)
Overall its a great experience... thanks for topspin to sponsor such an event :))) we might go out today as well, but for bowling this time ;-D i am sure.. i can score the maximum around my team of topspin guys... and show of myself... hahaha..
Maniks if you know Mark, i enjoyed these songs "Money for Nothing, and your chicks for free" and "You are so far away from me" listen to them and post a comment buddy.
