Organiser's washed away the Summer of 69

The dreams of watching Bryan Adam's play live in Delhi were shattered early Tuesday Morning. Delhi seems to have earned the distinction of being the favourite "no start" destination for all rock bands. As i stood in the rain on Tuesday morning i was surrounded by fellow music buffs who waited patiently for any news on the event. The rain gods seem to have given the organisers the perfect alibi to wash their hands off the mismanagement. There were people who had hopped onto an early morning flight to reach Delhi in time for the concert. Alas !! They had not accounted for the shoddy approach of the organisers.
The venue hardly looked like a place befitting a world tour concert. It was shoddy with muck and filth all over. The Ram Lila at the Red Fort grounds is far better organised and managed as compared to the event being promoted by NetSurf Entertainment. No wonder it never got the requisite clearance from the government authorities.

The drama continued and the organisers came out with the idea of holding the concert at Gurgaon on the 20th. Then Bryan Adams tweeted that the fans can take a flight to Hyderabad to watch the concert the next day. I am not sure if he was being cynical or had gone insane to think that people would travel all the way to Hyderabad to watch him perform. Now the Kyazoonga site seems to have mysteriously gone offline and we  have been left wondering how to get the refund on the tickets. I think the scamsters ( organizers ) seem to have drawn inspiration from A Raja's and Kalmadi's of our world and have found an easy way to milk the cat.
