Colombo

Only a very few of us can truly relate to this genre of music. This was a free gig that was open to anyone and everyone. Given that there were 2 other events happening in Colombo and Mount Lavinia, we ended up having this hardcore fans who enjoyed the fraternity on a Saturday evening. 

The only venue the rock community can get these days. But seems like this would be the last few concerts that we get to do here. The government is renovating the place, so they say. Till then we need to find another location.

This is a stadium which has a run down building with a theatre style stage with torn curtains.

Right in front of the hall is this Bamboo Tree/ Bush, which gives a serene feel to the somewhat busy location.
