There has been alot to share lately. Past couple of months have been really good, opportunity wise and you're the first ones i want to share some juicy news with. So, i have been invited to perform at one of the most prestigious and 33 year old Bagpipe festival in Galicia, SPAIN. Each year this festival calls ahem! ahem! (clears throat) "Famous Bagpipers from the World" and for the first time they have invited somebody from India and it is, Yours truly!
I am so excited for this, as this will be my FIRST INTERNATIONAL PERFORMANCE! The people organising this also have a prestigious Gaita School (Bagpipe School). Bagpipes are called Gaita in Spain, infact they have their own kind of Bagpipe which has always intrigued me! So i thought ummm when i'm already going there, why not stay back for sometime and learn a new style and new kind of Bagpipe! I'm sure the idea is simple but the execution will kick my ass haha. Anyway, so the plan is 9th June is this concert in Santiago de Compostela and after my concert i will take lessons for Gaita from them and also purchase one (Thanks to all YOUR support, i can even think) Bagpipes are usually pretty expensive but with you all supporting me, i can really think a bit more boldly ;) . So yeah 2 weeks of lessons and then i'm thinking of 1 week to just see Spain. Perhaps Barcelona and Madrid. How many of you have been to Spain? Do you have anything to share about the place?
I am pretty excited for next month.

News #2 - I have heard and been asked to come to the U.S . Mostly offers for shows. Now none of this has really ironed out yet but i am sooo happy to share it with you. People are talking about "The Snake Charmer" they want to see me in the US. I don't know when it will work out or when i would get a good offer but you see, things are moving, people are noticing and i am just very glad about it!
