Euphoria rocks Mangalore

Euphoria!!! Wow! What more can I say.

13 years since they began the journey and their songs still remain at the tip of the tongues of their fans. I was one among the fortunate 25,000 people to witness the exuberant band perform at the Mangala stadium in Mangalore. The Delhi-based band entertained the crowd right from the start to end.

I'm not born with a knack for music but I judge a musician based on the impact made on the audience. And what Euphoria did was bigger than a complicated word called 'impact.' The entire youth present at the venue couldn't resist tapping their feet.

Led by vocalist Dr. Palash Sen, Euphoria performed a thousand times better than the previous day's performers Colonial Cousins. I fully take the risk of making that statement.



Not only did the songs jump from Hindi to English but also Kannada, Tulu and even Konkani. That precisely shows that Euphoria had done its homework well. I pretty much expected the Kannada touch but I never knew that Konkani was coming. And when it came I couldn't stop from getting off my chair. The area for the press was full of youngsters dancing. The media persons to didn't mind shaking a leg.

Euphoria also gave us the opportunity to listen to the songs of their new album 'Item'. It promises to be a great one just like their show in Mangalore was.

Jan 14, 2012 will surely be remembered by Mangaloreans for the awesomely wonderful performance by Euphoria.
