Charity Concert - Mano & Usha

Went to a short "For Charity" Concert over the weekend with a couple of friends... The program was scheduled to start at 7:00 PM. But for "unknown technical reasons", it started around 8:30PM. And while Mano was singing the Song #2 of the day, the microphones went mute ! Terrible.. ! And then they had some issues again and again.. this went on for about a half hour. Finally, around 9:00 PM.. things started to work ! Thank Goodness.. We were expecting to be home by about 9:30 PM.. but that didnt seem a possibility. Anyway.. since the singing finally got started we sat through..

They sang some of my favorite Telugu songs of all time and that was fun. Since it was a very small intimate setting, we got to speak to the singers and take pictures with them. Mano was energetic.. and Usha was very simple and down to earth. She kept running into backstage immediately after every song and we wondered what was going on. Later we realized there was a 10 month old waiting for mommy to stop singing and come back to hold him....

Despite these initial hiccups, it was a great concert.I'd like to do more of this in future..
