Hi dear reader,

Thanks for stopping by. Please get your tickets here (over on the right), or call us at 877-945-7177.

Or of course come on by to MacMillan Theater, University of Toronto, Edward Johnson Building, 80 Queen’s Park, Toronto, Ontario M5S 2C.

Doors open at 7:30pm. Concert starts at 8:00pm.

It will be an awesome experience!

Exercising good taste at the Commonwealth Games…finally! Great to hear that Indian Ocean will be playing at the Commonwealth 2010 games being hosted in New Delhi!

Only after they’re playing in Toronto on September 11th! Got your tickets yet?

The Toronto Environmental Alliance is supporting Yeh Hai Life’s benefit concert for AidIndia. We are humbled and honored by their support. We couldn’t have found a more fitting partner for what we are trying to do.

‘We’re all in it together’ as they say. The Toronto Environmental Alliance campaigns passionately for a “green, healthy and equitable city with economic activity that sustains our environment.” Their success in Toronto crosses over the human made boundaries into where we live in the US.

And what we do here in the US helps a farmer all the way out in India.

Small steps, small gesture, by hundreds and thousands of us around the world add up to ONE BIG DIFFERENCE!

See you at the concert September 11th! Gaze on over to your right and buy your tickets to one amazing show.

The heading will tell you why the blogging is lagging!

We’re burning up the phone lines, talking to every association in Toronto trying to pull off this event…India’s greatest rock band in a benefit for India’s farmers!

If you stop by and read this…please, please get the word out to your peeps in Toronto!

Why we’re doing this concert: more than 200,000 farmers have committed suicide in India in the past 9 years. Even today this crisis continues, as farmers remain devastated by droughts, floods and predatory loan sharks in India’s suicide belt.

The proceeds of this concert will go to AidIndia, an organization that works with these farmers’ families to find sustainable agriculture solutions. They have thousands of volunteers from the US and India who spend time with the farmers in their villages for months training and working with them on new farming solutions. We are supporting AidIndia with this concert because of their transparency in how they work and the measurable results their projects yield.

And AidIndia is a 4-star rated charity…so you (and us) can’t go wrong!

Good to see some meaningful and positive reviews for a dark comedy out of India. Anusha Rizvi is getting all around kudos for a well crafted story.

Read some of the applause from Hollywood Reporter, Wall St Journal,  LA Times, and The New York Times.
