Indigo, the airline, not the radio station. I can fill jars with bile vented as a result of the radio station that would make Ali Baba, the black sheep, bleat a hasty retreat. Their music is ok, it's western and occasionally that Putomayo world music hour gives me joy, but if they don't do something about the RJs then we might just go back to listening to Uppi approved Big FM.
Anyway IndiGo as they put it has nasty blue crowd control things. The 3' high metal cylinders connected with 2" strips of nylon? Yeah that's the one. IndiGo's is bright blue with "IndiGo No Red Tape" written all over it. Wanted to take a quick picture with the cool phone but I was already getting evil-eye from the security guard for laughing too loud.
Stare at the guy staring into the laptop. Not his laptop, the guy sitting next to him's laptop. And sue me for my grammar. When the guy looks up give him a raised eye brow.
Generally get shocked at the NCR and how things work there. Sometimes it's a rude shock that they do. But apparently they do. Been here at annual intervals and the infrastructure that gets built is simply amazing. They have a Metro now. The next cretin who goes weren't they always one, is going to get poked in the eye. And with some Commonwealth Games happening in a few years that's all the excuse they need to make the entire NCR look like the future. Except that every once in a while it feels like the planet of the apes. Like one woke up in some otherwise nice future except that there were monkeys all around.
Not being overtly nasty and communal but things do irritate me sometimes. The butter chicken makes up for it but not always.
All the Delhi rants apart been listening to this band called Advaita which apart from the usual bunch of bassists and guitars and the usual has a sarangi and a trained vocalist in hindustani... Like Scott Matthews who sounds like... like I need to listen to his stuff some more.
Leave for chandigarh tomorrow. More on that when I return over the weekend.
Peace out. Like they say sometimes.
