Party hearty

Just got back to Delhi after an awesome four days in Bangalore, where we performed at three games and managed time to see some of the city. We loved Bangalore and were really impressed with the brand-new airport.

Our first game in the Bangalore stadium was such a rush and an amazing feeling. The crowd roared as we ran out on the field and it felt great to get such a warm reception. The stadium was pretty packed for all the games, especially Bangalore v Delhi.

That game had such an incredible vibe and everyone was pumped. We all were treated to some brash hitting by Veeru and Gautam as Delhi helped themselves to some runs. However, the real thrill and crowd support was for the Bangalore team’s very own Ross Taylor. He didn’t let us rest with all his relentless hits and singlehandedly took the match away from the Daredevils, and yes, I think he is very cute too.

So far we have been very lucky in terms of no accidents on the podiums, until one recent incident involving my room-mate Amy. Amy is an amazing dancer but she was a little unlucky as she ran down the stairs off the podium. She tripped over on the stairs, did a forward roll, slammed her head into a cement wall and landed on a cooler full of water.

The Indian cricket crowd were incredibly sympathetic and were concerned whether or not Amy was okay. Other than a massive black-and-blue bruise on her leg the only thing that is slightly crushed is her ego. Luckily Amy has a great sense of humour and completely laughed off the incident, but nonetheless an incident we will never forget.

We were lucky enough to do a bit of shopping on Commercial Street. We felt like we had hit the jackpot when we came across an amazing store that sold us saris at a great price. I think everyone came away from there with at least two or three. Now we just have to figure out how to wear them correctly!

We also went to our first official White Mischief Party, at a club called Zero G. It had an amazing view of the city and we were told it is the oldest bar in Bangalore. We did two performances and took pictures with tons of fans in the bar. It was a really cool place and we danced with the crowd to local Indian music. A lot of us are really getting into the local music and want to download tons of tunes when we get back home. It was a great night, and since we had to leave for the airport at 4am, we just never really went to bed!
