Sadique, Welcome to my blog! Oh that's great! Hope you do get to meet him. Manasa, Welcome to my blog! I just wrote for all those songs for which I felt like writing something. It's just a coincidence that most of the songs for which I didn't write anything turned out to be Naresh's :) >>if you noticed any slip (if any) is Aslam ji’s rendition of jashn Well there were indeed, many slips >>but how you failed to put it in your write up amazes me ! If you notice, I haven't written anything great about Chinmayee's singing either. Among all that she sang, Maduraikku pogadhadee was the one that I liked the most in the concert and I have mentioned that. Hope you get to attend more and more concerts of Rahman! :) Raghu,

I watched both the concert’s Feb 21st 2003 and Feb 9th 2008.. waiting for the hat-trick.

I pray that I get to meet the genius this time around & take some photos with him…

You had attended a 4 and a half hour concert of Rahman?? Lucky you! :) >but a live concert is something to die for!!! The man is truly amazing, and whats even more amazing is his humility in letting the junior singers take centrestage while he just comes and sings a couple of songs… Exactly!! >10 out of 24! I didn't realize that! Athiradee was the one that received the loudest applause if I remember correctly. I have seen those VCDs too. A Rahman's concert would be incomplete without Kadhal Rojave or Chinna chinna aasai, Uyire or Humma Humma ;) Bharath,

The man may be amazing in his albums and his concerts on TV, but a live concert is something to die for!!! The man is truly amazing, and whats even more amazing is his humility in letting the junior singers take centrestage while he just comes and sings a couple of songs... He may not appear to have the same charisma as a Shah Rukh Khan in entertaining a crowd, but believe me he does an equally good if not better job, in his own trademark style! That was a four and a half hour concert and we just wanted more and more and more, and he ended it with Maa Tujhe Salaam... I counted the number of Mani Rathnam songs in that concert - He had about 20% of the songs as Mani Rathnams, which was high considering he's worked with other directors as well! Looks like he's beaten that number in this concert - 10 out of 24! Not surprising since his best work is for Mani Rathnam... Yep he also did the Blaaze - Humma Humma rap in that concert - The audience just went wild with that song, but Im sure he had the same effect with Athiradhee in this concert! Ive seen a couple of VCDs of his live concerts in Dubai and USA, and his perennial favourites are songs from Roja and Bombay.. Of course, nothing to beat the live concert! I had passes for the concert but missed it as I had to go to Bangalore that day (the other first love in my life ha ha ha)
