It’s almost been a year since the last time cochlear tempest met and I long for that thrill, those crowd cheers, the adrenaline rush and many more emotions that came with stage performances. Composing music was no piece of cake as well. I still remember those sleepless nights we spent practicing on Ujjawal’s rooftop to perfect our first original composition. Well, technically, to be more specific, those sleepless nights were actually spent by his neighbors (with all that noise we created).

We’ve moved along since then and although the band has been temporarily disbanded, it is good to know that we still haven’t give up on our devotion to music. I have joined a local band over here and are performing live in front of an audience of at least a 1000 people at the India fest. Ujjawal, just recently, gave a performance in front of a group of people. He sent me an email with video’s of his performances. I’m not sure if he wants me to include them in this post or not. So for the time being, I will not add the links.

That email sent me down the memory lane and I dug through the archives of my hard drive to cherish all the moments we shared together as a band and more so as a family. Here are some of the best highlights of our life:

I was free this morning and used some last tit-bits of creativity to create the awesome new archives page at Incongruous Balderdash. It has been made possible using the Snazzy Archives plugin by Vladimir Prelovac. Check out the archives page.

I finally found another perfect theme for my blog. This one is called amazing grace and is released under GPL by Vladimir Prelovac. Since it is released under GPL, I would be making changes to the color pallette and other theme functions. Send in your feedback to make the site more lively.
