I plan to attend Opeth’s upcoming concert in Mumbai but this is going to be my first one ever, so would appreciate some advice: I’d love to view the band up close and am therefore considering the fanpit section. Does it usually get crowded or suffocating there? Or is there an alternate section of the venue that I should consider as a first timer?

All ears to suggestions! Thank you :)

So this 30th Aug, in Bangalore, there is an extreme metal gig at this venue called Blah Blah.

This is the same venue which was known as Indigo XP and has hosted many metal events before Covid.

After the closure of Fandom, good to see a new venue but we really need more venues in Bangalore.

Need to attend more metal gigs to create demand. May be that's the solution. What do you say??

LB coming to Lolla ... 2027 !

(Solo show would be best but this is amazing also, I will need to get single day pass now)

If only we could fly!

I have spent the last 6 years in Europe and something that's really popular in spaces here (especially in the UK) is emo nights (umbrella term for anything from Blink-182/Green Day/MCR/Foo Fighters to Bring Me The Horizon/Bad Omens/Motionless in White/Sleep Token). These nights are the only club nights I like going to over here - they're incredible for finding a community of people who like the same music I do and just exist on the dancefloor and move how you want to to the music that matters to you. I've never been to Bangkok but I know it's also a thing that happens there, so I was wondering whether it could/why it couldn't be a thing in Bangalore. I haven't been to India in years so I don't really know but there's a chance I might be atleast for a bit next year so I'd love to looking into starting one.

Genuinely curious. If you love Rock, where would you go in Delhi? There used to be such a rich and diverse offering of Rock DJ nights and live acts, like Them Clones, Orange Street, TAAQ etc. Now there's nothing. Kabir was a well-known DJ who only played rock, DJ Sid owned Morrison in South Ex in all ways possible (he's gone full commercial now), TC created its own tribe, especially those swore by its Media Nights. What happened? Where did it all disappear?

Any revivals happening?
