Back from the Unknowns
The Unknowns are easily Bangalore’s best live rock act. They played at Layout/Hideout in HSR Layout Friday night.
Oh, and if you are ever in the place, keep off the food. The service sucks. I order a Mushroom Manchurian and get a Chicken Manchurian. The guy then takes twenty minutes to bring me the right dish, and it’s cold. He takes it back, returns in a few minutes, and it’s still cold. Next round it’s slightly lukewarm, and I’m really hungry, so I don’t bother to ask for it to be warmed again. I order a Orange Juice, and he gets me a Mango Juice, the syrupy version that comes out of a Maaza or Slice bottle. Finally when I pay my bill, the guy doesn’t return the change. I had no intention of leaving a tip.
The music more than made up for it. A tip of the hat to![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif)
