What’s the most iconic Indian music venue?

Seeing Blue Frog open lately I was wondering what you all thought would qualify for the most iconic and legendary music venue in our country.

Personally for me it might be the Piano Man, considering they have hosted many bands like Indian Ocean, and international artists like Calum Scott.

I’d love to know more about the histories of venues in your city and which international gigs they have hosts

Tier 4 seated venues from the top of the stadium are ₹12,000 while standing in Bangkok goes for ₹15,000… but apparently the KL stadium has much better management than Bangkok. Not sure anymore.. please help a fellow out

I recently found out about Bloodywood from Lollapalooza India and also learnt that while they are an Indian band, they have a substantial following outside of India and have toured Europe and the USA.

So, I wanted to know how many other Indian artists there were that also have a substantial international following and importantly have toured the US or EU/AUS before?

Aside from that if you have any recs whether it be any genre in the Indian indie scene please PUT ME ON !!!
