We have just finished our tour of India, having played five shows across the country during the Great Indian Rock festival. The tour kicked off with a small club gig in Delhi on Oct 30, followed by open air shows in Mumbai, Dehli, Shillong, and the grand finale at Palace Grounds, Bangalore, in front of 6,000 screaming maniacs.
The response from the Indian audience exceeded all our expectations, and the tour has made a great first step for Sahg in India and hopefully also other parts of Asia. Our gratitude goes out to all of you who came out and made Sahg’s first visit to India such a memorable experience!
Hear recorded tracks from the show at Hamsadhvani Open Air Theater, New Dehli, on Nov 1, now on Sahg Myspace, more live recorded tracks from the tour will be posted shortly. Photos and video clips from the tour will also be posted soon, on Sahg Myspace and the Visuals gallery on this website. You can also discuss Sahg’s performances at Great Indian Rock on the Sahg Myspace blog and the official Sahg Forum.
